Program Details

MK Home is an eco homestay located on a quiet hill, just 35 km from Hanoi. We follow a modern mindful lifestyle: present, balanced, connected to nature but still comfortable and productive. Our space is simple, warm, and designed to help people slow down without stepping away from real life.

As a volunteer, you’ll help us maintain this cozy atmosphere through gardening, small creative projects, carpentry, art, communication, or assisting our local staff. Tasks are flexible and based on your strengths — we value intention, creativity, and calm energy more than perfection.
