Since this was my first Worldpackers exchange and also my first solo trip, I was a bit nervous at the beginning, especially because I can be quite shy. But from the moment I arrived, everyone was super welcoming and friendly. I got along really well with the other volunteers, which made the whole stay even more enjoyable. The dorm was different from what I had expected (e.g compost toilets), but in the end it was totally fine, I just did not know about it before applying. The work at the café was good, I especially enjoyed helping out with the B&B rooms and food was always delicious.

This was my second time at the community and I would come back again! What makes this experience so special to me is that you really feel like you're home away from home and meet so many amazing people, with whom you can spend your free time (and you get a lot of free time you can spend in nature or at the farm) :) For most of us, it presented a lot of new experiences, like feeding chicken, using compost toilets etc., just a great place to learn :))

Only english speaking, no german (as in the description). We got sick there, but we were very well cared for. Generally, the members on the farm were very welcoming, with a wide variety of people. The food is interesting and tastes good, but not as "the community," "healthy," or varied as I had imagined... It was a nice stay and we got to meet many other volunteers. Many Germans were there :)

It's my first volunteer trip and I spent wonderful time with Paulia and her team. Everyone here is super friendly, warm and willing to share. They will guide you to do the work on the farm and really respect the time schedule. When we finished the work, we can cycle to the lake for swimming and enjoy the stunning view! Other volunteers were also friendly and nice, sometimes we played board games at night and had a lot of fun. It feels like home. So, I super recommend staying here, I almost cried when I was leaving! Thanks for everything!

I had a really great time at the farm! The working hours were always respected and we had enough time to explore the nature, there are many lakes nearby with one being only a short walk away. The members of the community were very welcoming and always made sure that you feel well. There are also many other volunteers at the same time so it's a great opportunity to meet people and connect :)

My time on the farm was fantastic! The landscape with the many lakes is simply beautiful and the people, whether the permanent members or the volunteers, were all so nice and open. I made new friends and at the same time gained valuable new experiences! The working hours were always fair and everyone made an effort to make you feel comfortable!! So if you want to get an impression of working on a farm and at the same time get to know new people, this is the place to be :)))

I worked in the café with my sister for a week and can only say that we had a really good time there. They have a lot of volunteers, so we made great friends and the whole team we worked with was great. We were provided with bicycles with which we could ride to the café and visit all the lakes in the neighbourhood. We can definitely recommend it and would love to come back. :)

This was my first Worldpackers experience, and really enjoyed it! The community at the community is warm and welcoming. From the very first day, I felt included and comfortable. The schedule required some flexibility between morning and afternoon shifts, but the working hours were fair, and the tasks were always clear and manageable. During my free time, I had plenty of opportunities to connect with other volunteers and explore the beautiful surroundings. If you are looking for a slower pace, kind people, and time to reconnect with nature, I would definitely recommend this place:)

I loved my stay at the community and I'm happy to have learned a lot about Café and kitchen work and to have met so many lovely people :) The work can be really exhausting but the hours are always agreed upon first and communication is very clear. The whole community is so welcoming in general!! You have to cycle a lot to get around because the place is quite remote but the nature is stunning so it's definitely the best place to be to reconnect with nature (& fellow travellers;)) thanks for everything!!
