It was simply amazing. I worked in the art studio, and it couldn't have been better. I learned things I never imagined I would learn and grew and developed so much, both personally and professionally I'm deeply grateful to everyone, especially Erica, Lupe, and Rodrigo, who supported me and helped me a lot in the studio. I also met wonderful people and had the opportunity to learn more about the project Buddhism by attending classes and meditations, which made this experience even more special and truly transformative

My time at Manjushiri was truly a wonderful experience, I was able to meet tge most interesting people, be inspired by buddhism and learn to practice the project. I was lucky to work in the cafè but be prepared to work and be ready to step in when other departments need a hand. Household can require longer hours or work and manual labor but the team is always willing to help. The community is welcoming and it's easy to feel at home.
