My first volunteering experience through this platform was very wonderful, as I enjoyed beautiful nature, clean air, and good people, especially my brother Saeed, with whom I enjoyed beautiful conversations and learned a lot from him, I recommend visiting him. Thanks Saeed for everything.

I spent nearly 2 weeks at the project and had a great time there. I learned a lot about construction work and gardening. The work was fun. Said is a kind person and a flexible host. He always did his best to make me and the other volunteers feel welcome. He tought us a lot about the berber culture and I got a glimpse into moroccan village life. The house is hidden, giving much privacy and surrounded by beautiful mountains. The accomodation was basic, but there is everything you need. This place is perfect if you want to be close to nature. I would definitely go back :)

These comments, are ment to help others who are going to volunteer in the future. And not just for the sake of good feedback to get more "jobs". It was what I was expecting: Low higiene, conditions, food These were not a problem for me. But after I had denied certain things of a more sexual interest, Said showed himself to be very unpacient and with a bad temper on the next day. He is not a bad person. He helped me to get to the resort, gave me food, and a nice room. Irs is very much a paradise there. I left cause I felt my time was being wasted and didnt feel safe as a gay man

Mi experiencia en el lugar de Said fue muy buena, el lugar que tiene Said es super lindo, acogedor y rodeado de naturaleza, esta dentro de la cordillera de Atlas mountain, por lo que los hikings durante la estancia son un must definitivamente! las actividades en el voluntariado consiste en ayudar a restaurar la casa que sufrió daños en durante el terremoto del año pasado, aprendí a construir muros, usar materiales propios de la region, restaurar paredes, ademas de apoyar a Said en otras tares de la casa. Said hace todo por que te sientas comodo en su casa y la comida es deliciosa!
