I had a very good time in the farm. Eventhough it is a very tough work, specially on summer, the schedules and working hours are very much respected and you can really rest after you finish working. The place is very beautiful and wonderful for hiking around. I would put another bathroom for when there is a lot of volunteers and you can get there better with ToyotaGo app :)

I spent 2 wonderful weeks working on the farm with Metka, Bogdan, Gregor and Miha. Schedules are respected, tasks are generally simple to carry out, although some can be quite physical, but when that's the case, it's only for 5 hours at most for us (and a good meal awaits us afterwards!). The farm is quite isolated, so it was ideal for me to rest and do nothing, or go hiking in the surrounding area. The scenery and especially the sunsets are really beautiful! Getting to the surrounding towns is a little more complicated, but can be done on long hikes or by hitchhiking.

Metka, Bogdan and Gregor are super hosts ! Metka cooks delicious meals every day for lunch and it was really appreciated after the halfday of work ! Gregor and Bogdan teached us to plant, harvest and clean vegetables. It was so cool to learn about the process — and I was so happy to eat at lunch or dinner the result of our work ^^ They are truly concerned about your confort and provide food that you can cook in the common kitchen for dinner. Every night I had the luck to watch a beautiful sunset right from the farm. It's was an amazing experience thanks to Metka, Gregor and Bogdan !

In our experience (I went with a friend), the surrounding area is nice. There are beautiful mountains, but no lakes or rivers nearby. There are a few towns close, but it's a little difficult to get around because there are no buses until you reach the nearest city. Regarding the farm, I think the work is hard, but they give you breaks and respect the working hours. The accommodation is dirty but quiet, and the food is sometimes not enough for all the volunteers, which is a problem because there are no supermarkets nearby. It's a good volunteering experience because but not for too many days.

Mathias thank you for a very bad response. If you read the enail which i send you is written that the rooms in which younstay and only is used by YOU. It aslo has to be cleaned by you. By the team. Everything what you wrote is a fact. Since we a re organic farm in the middle of forest. Not enough food with organic vegetables and all food given? Why nobody speaks when you are here? This is really not a feedback. This is crying over your not active aproach while beeing here. Wish you al the best

This was my first workaway experience and I enjoyed my two weeks at the farm, meeting some wonderful volunteers and experiencing farm life in a rural Slovenian village! It's important to note that there isn't much interaction between the host and the volunteers, but Metka is so so lovely and you will become very close with the other volunteers :) We had some communication issues throughout my stay, so make sure the expectations are clear - if you have questions or something doesn't seem fair, just ask!! Definitely important to self advocate and work independently :)

Thank you so much for staying with us. Doing this worldpackers experience means to step out of the life in which u live. And learn something new. As we also say this farm is our life and vegetables, animals need constant presens. How much time u spend with us it also depends on your iniciative. Or u stay in the room or u spend ttime outside and are not afraid to spend time with us/family also when u are not working. So be proactive and dont wait for others to do what you are expecting .connect

It was overall a nice stay. I learned a lot about harvesting which i still think about today. Unfortunately this time of the year, it was pretty cold and a bit lonely because most of the time there was just one volunteer there with me and we didnt see the hosts a lot. But apart from that, i really enjoyed my stay and i would definitely recommend that host :)

It is a very cool place! The living and sleeping room is really big and you got a lot free time to see the beautiful country. I learned some interesting things for example how to harvest vegetables, but you also have to be ready for some boring tasks as collecting plastic from the ground. It's also nice that you're always working outside. The staff is often busy so you won't really see them. If you like to see the farm life check this out and make your chest wet! It was a pleasure to be here, thanks.

Metka is a great host. She always asks if everyone is ok. The hours are respected. The tasks can be tiring, but doable. Bogdan can be a funny guy once you know him and Gregor is your man for every possible crisis there is. You won't see the family too much after work, so ask Metka about other volunteers. You'll create a whole vibe with them. When I came, there was 7 of us and we became super close with each other in just a few days. If you want to spend time with family, just follow them around farm. They're great to talk to, but very busy, so you need to keep their pace ;) Great place <3

I absolutely loved my time at the farm! It was for me a month of connecting with other travelers, with nature and the Slovenian culture. The work was sometimes, though rarely, hard due to the weather, but very rewarding and you learn so much. Metka and the rest of the team are amazing at what they do, and so welcoming to everyone entering their home. I would recommend this experience to everyone!
