This place really rased the standars for all the worldpacker volunteers! I do not have words to describe how amazing this place, the people and the nature is!! We almost didn't work at all, we just chilled and enjoyed the peacefullness! Upeksha and Anoj took such good care of us, they are so incredible people, so welcoming, so attentive, i am missing them a lot while writing this 😭😭 i really wish i could go back at some point! If you come, make sure to prin some long pants and long sleeve, sometimes it gets colder at night 😊

Such a beautiful, calm and regenerating experience! Upeksha cared for us volunteers as her sisters. Upeksha and Anoj and his parents are all wonderful people, super easy to get along with. Their space is tranquil and absolutely gorgeous, the mountains and tea plantations surrounding their beautiful home. With some luck you can see some animals. You can learn a lot from these people as they are very knowledgeable and intelligent. I hope all volunteers coming here acknowledge your hospitality and care and respect you for it! I hope to be back one day to witness your achievements! All the love!

I had the most amazing time being hosted by Anoj, Upeksha, and Anoj's parents. The house is in the most gorgeous mountains filled with tea gardens, it's so stunning. The food they prepared was so delicious everyday, and they worked so hard to make me gluten free options also. It was a truly magical experience and I will forever cherish the sisterhood that Upeksha, the other volunteers and I shared. We felt a bit bad that we hardly did any work but they kept wanting us to relax and have a memorable experience. They would take us on excursions to see the local way of life too, which was so kind

Really loved our stay with the hosts. Felt like home during our whole stay. We got delicous meals everyday and really enjoyed staying near nature. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming. We even made nice trips to the waterfalls and visiting the vegetable garden. In total, we had a very good time there and can really recommend staying there!

My first volunteer experience have been great thanks to the amazing hospitality of Anoj and Upeksha. They are very kind, attentive and willing to help. They opened the doors of their beautiful and cozy home, sharing their culture and way of local life.Toddyland is a perfect peaceful place surrounded by nature where you disconnect from the world and reconnect with yourself. Work is simple and enjoyable, we helped on the vegetable garden and planted banana trees. We also did hiking and visited Buddha temple for meditation. Highly recommend!

Too sad they gave me a no-show review, but i just send proof of my stay to worldpackers so here is my honest review that might be useful to anyone thinking coming here. Pros: -Upeksha was nice and helpful -The meals were tasty -You experience living with local ppl Cons: -No hot water -Bedroom has a strong smell of mould -Mattress was very bad and sagging -too many leeches, got all my clothes with blood -nothing to explore nearby, 2.5 hours to nuwara actually. -cockroaches wandering in kitchen -no volunteering activity I actually counted my days there and called my mom it's fine, but lied.

I had the most wonderful time during my stay with Upeksha, Anoj and their lovely family. It has been a breath of fresh air taking time to immerse myself in the beautiful nature and countryside of Mahaweligama, falling asleep to the sounds of the birds and crickets! During my stay, I helped plant my own coconut tree, which was a really special experience, and I have also helped with the home - preparing land, planting vegetables etc. I have also had free time to relax around the property, go for a walk and explore, and we have eaten such delicious traditional food. I would highly recommend!!

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🥰
