My experience at the Center in the Center was very special. The volunteers and residents are all incredibly kind, and there's a very peaceful and welcoming atmosphere, which also allows those who wish to deepen their the Center practice and their understanding of Buddhism. the Center is located in the countryside near Le Mans, a beautiful spot for nature lovers. I already know I'll return to the center when I have the opportunity Merci ❤️

I will always remember my time in the Center with love and cheerfulness. Aside of the amazing natural landscapes you will find in the center and the surroundings, the beauty of this place is find in every interaction with other people, you will always feel part of a big family. People is always kind, warm and open to share a nice chatting with you. The work tasks don't feel like heavy work due to the fun you have with your coworkers and the healthy atmosphere. I wouldn't hesitate to come back. I'm always grateful to this place and to the people who makes this place as great as it is.

The experience was amazing! I always feel at home in the Center centers ❤️ the chateau is beautiful, food is great and I could participate of the Center sessions in English and I even went to classes in French and learned a lot. The tasks are easy and we work in teams so the job and hours are never too hard, I had plenty of time to relax and enjoy the nature outside. I recommend it 1000%

My experience at the Center was the first one through Worldpackers and it was truly unforgettable! From day one i felt welcomed into a community full of warmth, kindness and amazing people (residents and from all over the world). The place is calm and inspiring. The work is not difficult at all, clearly divided into shifts at different times of the day, very well organised and everyone is always willing to help. I totally recommend this experience! I'm very happy I got the chance to be there and can't wait to go back ☺️
