The experience of volunteering at Toddylander will always remain in my heart. I'm very grateful to met this sweet, friendly and welcoming family with a good energy. It's a beautiful cultural exchange where you can learn a lot with a reconnection in the nature. Good place to get out of your comfort zone. Highly recommended. With also delicious typical food cooked with love. I liked to eat the fresh and natural vegetables from the farm. So amazing to explore the green nature with rivers, lakes, waterfalls, view point and to visit the Buddhist temple. Grazie Upeska, Anoj and family

Spent an incredible week here completely immersed in local culture— learning about the land, harvesting coffee & tea with locals, and embracing slow mountain life. Upeksha and Anoj are so warm, welcoming the home, I felt right at home. Anoj's parents who also live at the home are very sweet and eager to share their culture and delicious home cooked meals with travellers. Unfortunately it rained a lot during my stay so the work days were cut short, if we could work at all. Hosts are very encouraging about resting and relaxing on rainy days. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! & Bring a good book!

I had the most amazing time with Anoj and Upeksha!!! They gave me the warmest welcome to Sri Lanka and I can't thank them enough. Tasks were simple and the cultural exchange was everything I could have hoped for. Offered so many ways to immerse myself into the local lifestyle including the most incredible food! Their village is such a beautiful little place with insane views. I'm hoping to return one day🥰

I had a wonderful time here for a week. The household includes a young couple, the husband's parents, 2 cute cats and 2 sweet dogs. They were welcoming and made us feel right at home. The wife, Upeksha was happy to help with anything I needed. As for the farm work I learnt to harvest coffee beans and tea leaves. They have a vegetable garden too, where volunteers can help out. The food provided everyday was nourishing, delicious and gave us a taste of the local food. We also went to Nuwara Eliya and overnight camping, the views at both places were beautiful. Memorable time overall :)

I had an incredible first volunteering experience at Anoj and Upeksha's. The hosts were warm and welcoming, treating me like part of the family from day one. The farm itself is in the middle of the mountains and it's surrounded by tea plantations. I learned so much about farming practices and got hands-on experience with tasks like planting, harvesting, and caring for the animals. The peaceful surroundings and the genuine connections I made with the hosts made this experience unforgettable. I highly recommend this experience to anyone! :D

Anoj's family is very caring and helpful. Even father and mother don't speak english but really they did a lot fir us with a great smile all the time. Very quiet place, the nature there is very pure. Upeshka, the most beautiful and kind girl.. she was with us all the time till we came truly friends. Anoj is a true man with high responsibilty and kindness. I recommend this experience for your souls.

They are all so warm, giving, & filled with such good energy - I feel so lucky to have gotten to know them & call them my friends now.
