My time at Centro was very nice! I felt very welcomed from the moment I arrived. The work hours were fair and the team of volunteers and staff was fun! You have enough time to explore the area, which is amazing! The walk up to Centro takes some getting used to, but the meals that chef Oma serves to the guests, staff and volunteers make up for it 😄. Thank you for the experience!

A magical place surrounded by nature and kind people. I mostly worked at the bar and also helped with cleaning. The work is light and peaceful, and I got to share meditations, reiki sessions, and tarot readings with other volunteers. The schedule isn't very strict and can change, but rest days are respected. I'm leaving with a full heart and beautiful memories. If you're thinking of applying, don't hesitate, this is a place to connect, grow, and feel truly welcomed.

My experience volunteering in centro was really good! The staff building is nice and we have a river really close (which is good in summer). But, i wouldn't recommend for everyone , since: It's nature (so be read for nature issues) It's a bit of walk up from staff to guest building (and it's mentioned when you apply ) And all the meals are at the guest building (although we have a few stuffs on the staff building, as : milk,pasta and a few other things!) I really had such a nice time here, and i would like to come back someday. Thank you all staff and volunteers, i'll miss you all :)

Time at Centro was great. The work was fair, and everyone is super nice and fun. The location is also fantastic if you're into hiking, biking, kayaking, etc. I don't think anyone can be disappointed with spending time at Centro.
