This was my first volunteer experience, and it was absolutely worth it. I really enjoyed working at the café, where I had the chance to meet new people and try out a variety of tasks. The environment was welcoming, and I met amazing people from different countries, as well as locals. This not only made the experience more enriching but also helped me improve my English significantly.
The café was a fantastic place to work and socialize, and I highly recommend this opportunity to anyone, whether it's their first volunteer experience or if they're looking to challenge themselves in a new setting

This second experience has been incredible. I'm grateful to the management team for inviting me back to work with them and excellent colleagues from around the world. It's very fun and enjoyable to work here. It's a caring and respectful environment where you can perform a variety of tasks, often very simple, while also practicing English. The location is excellent because it allows you to explore the city in your free time. I will be eternally grateful to World Peace Café.

This was my first volunteering experience, and it couldn’t have been better.
I met incredible people like Jemma, Kelly, Fabi, Dani, Millie, Mari, Emily, Sanyiah, Augustina, Diego, and Lorraine.
Everyone at the center is willing to teach you new skills and share their knowledge about Buddhism.
Even with the intense work, there is a harmonious and supportive atmosphere.
The center is right in the heart of the city.
I truly met people I will carry in my heart forever.

This experience allowed me to meet amazing and helpful people, as well as others who could improve their leadership and learn to set better boundaries—especially with younger volunteers.

I connected with volunteers from all over the world, and their stories gave me valuable insight into different cultures and ways of living.

The place was beautiful, but the real atmosphere depends on the people. When coordinators aren't supportive, it can feel a bit heavy.

The work itself was great—I got to help with many café-related tasks and learned a lot along the way. It's an enriching experience
