Namua is an interesting host who is passionate about sustainability and community. The tasks were fulfilling and gave me a chance to learn new skills and connect to nature. It's important to follow her specific methods and be open to critical feedback. It's a great experience to learn about animals, nature and community. The food was absolutely fantastic and the surroundings were beautiful and peaceful! I loved meeting like-minded people and exploring the nearby areas. If you're adaptable and eager to learn, this is an experience I recommend! :)

The home is a great place to learn about sustainability, get used to a slower pace of life & meet like-minded people. Namua offers three delicious meals a day & it's inspiring to talk to her about her lifestyle choices. Her communication style is very direct in terms of recieving & offering feedback - so that's something you should be able to handle. Volunteers are expected to teach new volunteers about the tasks & projects, which causes errors to occur quite frequently in my opinion. I've really enjoyed this as my first worldpackers experience. Also, the mountains and village are beautiful!

Unforgettable experience: -met amazing people. -learned a lot about environmental awareness & permaculture lifestyle. -ate delicious & healthy food. -explored the surroundings full of beautiful nature and few water pools. It was assumed we knew how to complete tasks that were familiar to her, but not to us, so in some cases, we felt restrained from asking twice. Other than that, it's an experience I tremendously recommend and needs to be lived in your own skin! Thank you Namua for letting me stay in your home with your beautiful children (the animals) <3

Memorable and fulfilling experience. Namua's amazing cooking and humour were definite highlights. Tasks often felt rewarding. Although we volunteered during a challenging time, it taught me valuable lessons about the rewards and challenges of permaculture. The long hours were crucial for the crops' survival, but as things calmed, the atmosphere improved. I'd recommend this to anyone who loves animals, cares about the planet, can accept criticism with a positive mindset while maintaining their own sense of confidence. Extending my stay is a testament to how much I enjoyed it. Thank you, Namua!

I spent a really lovely month with my girlfriend at the home! Namua's farm is in an incredibly beautiful region of Southern France. The farm is an exceptional and educational model for a sustainable lifestyle. Work is reasonable and the responsibility to keep everyone and everything alive and comfortable is of the highest priority! Although our hours were generally well-respected, sometimes a lack of clarity on days off and tasks to be done made it hard to keep on top of everything in time. Volunteers are expected to organise this between themselves and it was not always successful.

We would recommend this experience with Namua on her small farm. We had lots of fun with other travelers, Namua and the animals and we felt always respected and welcomed during our stay. The working hours were always respected and the tasks are easy and sometimes also creative. The food is always delicious and vegan and her homemade Chutneys are a dream! During your free days you can explore the nearest cities, the mountains and the waterfall very easily. We had a nice time with everyone at the farm and we will always remember this experience!

The home Forest Garden is truly unique, seamlessly blending with nature. Work hours and free days were respected, tasks, while not overly difficult, required significant responsibility. The charming animals, picturesque landscape, and enriching community experience made our stay memorable. Despite differing vegan cuisine, we enjoyed Namua's distinct cooking. We express sincere gratitude for the opportunity to stay at the home, recommending it to those intrigued by Namua's work and eager to embrace her lifestyle.

The animals are really sweet and the work is not very hard. The place is beautiful and you can take nice trips on your days off. I did many things I have never done before and sometimes you have to be creative and find out how to do things. But you work together with the other volunteers and can help each other when you don't know how to do something. Me and my friend had a very nice time :)

The property is absolutely stunning and there are so many sweet and lovely animals. The work is not hard and the hours to work are respected. It's an all vegan house and its important to bring bio degredable products (toothpaste) definitely recommend this Host, I would do it again! :)

Namua has cultivated a property that is reliant on the help of volunteers. There is a variety of daily tasks and other projects to work on. Most of the day you are working alone or with other volunteers so be sure to ask questions if you need any clarity and brainstorm with other volunteers how to get things done. I learned so many knew skills here that I will be taking with me. If you are driven and passionate about the outdoors, animals or sustainability this is the place for you!
