What an experience atthe Center. This is a wonderful way of disconnecting from the buzzy cities and entering such silent nature. You may learn (if you wish) much about the Tibetan Buddhism philosophy which for me was a huge plus. There are the activities daily in the temple you can be part of. Accommodation is cozy, food is delicious, and the place can be full packed with guests on weekends so if you are more introverted, expect to socialise loads. Work is just fine, not too heavy or dificult and hours are respected.

It was an amazing time. The place, the people, the food, the possibility to join the classes in the Gompa everything was perfect. At the first moment I felt welcomed. It was also possible to stay two weeks longer. It's a good place to go hike, to jointhe Center classes, to meet people from all over the world. When I left, I had tears in my eyes. It's a special place.

My time atthe Center was so restorative and fun. The place is incredibly peaceful, with lovely waterfalls to swim in, views to admire, books to read and instruments to play. Everyone here is so kind and I met some lifelong friends. The work was easy and flexible. The food was delicious, and the classes were informative. I would highly recommend this experience, especially for backpackers looking for a reprieve from the hectic lifestyle of travelling.

It's an amazing place to spend some time away from busy life. The work is easy and fun because you're always with other volunteers. I had a lot of time to explore the nature around the temple and attend events in the temple. The community is very open minded and creates a welcoming surrounding for everyone <3

Volunteering atthe Center Lama Gangchen changed me in visible and invisible ways. The team is generous and kind, the temple's activities are rich and meaningful, and the energy of the place helps you reconnect with yourself and your path. I felt truly supported and reminded that I am exactly where I need to be. I'll carry this experience with me, with deep gratitude.

Spending time inthe Center allowed me to meet a lot of different people with lifestyles out of the ordinary. Also, most of the buddhist practices are open for volunteers, so this place is great to open up your mind :) The center and the temple are on a moutain, surrounded by the forest, so if you are looking for a peaceful time and for nice spots to hike, I definetely recommend coming ! Just be aware of the fact that the center is not super easy to access from Milan, the best is to take a train to Laveno, then a ferry to Intra, then the bus to the center.

This place is for you if you want to escape your busy life and take a moment to slow down! Your tasks contribute to the daily running of the place, and it feels nice to be a meaningful part of something. The hours are longer than most places I've volunteered at before, but the work isn't hard. You always do it in a team with others. You're in nature, and bigger cities are far away, so perfect if you want to chill and learn about Buddhism. My favourite thing was to be able to take part in the Tibetan new year celebrations. I'll be going back!

Volunteering here was a rewarding experience. The tasks were simple, flexible, and focused on helping around the facilities, creating a calm and purposeful environment. It felt like meaningful work, done for the good of all beings. The people I met were kind and supportive, and the sense of community made it even more special. I was pleasantly surprised to find a large Brazilian community at the temple, which made me feel at home. Knowing that a Brazilian the Centeris active here added even more significance. The temple is in a beautiful area, surrounded by nature and hikings.

It was an incredible experience! I connected with the local people, who were always very willing to help. As for work, it was extremely smooth, with flexible hours. During my free time, I loved going to the gompa to attend the classes, which was amazing for me! Nearby, there are incredible trails to explore. These were truly special days that I will carry with me forever!

I had the opportunity of enjoy freethe Center programs and yoga classes, met with other volunteers, learning about Dudisms. So glad about that.
