This experience has a special place in my heart. The hosts were very communicative and helpful, work wasn't too heavy and the variety of shifts was fun! This place was definitely a place away from home.

This was my first work exchange on world packers and I couldn't have ask for a better experience. Erin and ebonie provided training for our tasks, a welcoming environment, and handled stressful situations (cyclone Alfred) amazingly! I met many amazing volunteers and guests that made friendships for a lifetime. Highly recommend!

I had the best month volunteering here, Erin and Ebony were so welcoming and so were the other staff and volunteers- it felt like home after a few days! The work was well organised and we got clear training and instructions. I loved it and will always remember my time spent in Cooly!
