My tasks were different then expected, wasn't thrilled about that. However, both the people running the center and the community of fellow-volunteers was were just fantastic. I felt so welcome and free to be myself. On top of that the place itself and surrounding area are beautiful and peaceful.

Very nice experience! Good opportunity to meet locals and other travelers. Everything ran smoothly and, even though I didn't have any issues, the hosts were always super kind and made sure we were having a good experience. The work itself is easy and you can usually choose between construction, cleaning, garden or kitchen. Besides food and dorm, you are also able to attend some meditations for free.

This has been the best volunteering experience so far. It's a great place, great food, great installations and I have nothing but words of appreciation for Gyalwang, Barbara and all the volunteers I met there. The tasks were easy to comprehend, the working hours were met and everyone was very kind.

This experience was amazing! It's a really beautiful community where you get to interact with the monks, residents, and other volunteers. Everything is very organised, hours are respected, the food is great, and the place/its surroundings are so peaceful and nice. I'll definitely love to come back soon. Thanks for everything!

This is a fantastic place for any Worldpacker looking to rest and unwind from the chaos of city life. As this was my first experience, I couldn't be more grateful for the warm welcome and the overall experience I received. Thank you so much!

One of the best experiences I ever had volunteering! I'm so happy I came here! Since the beginning I felt a warm welcome from Gyalwang and Phillip who went to pick me up at the station :) I made great friends and had deep connections in such a short time. Friends I want to keep for life. Thank you the Center for this amazing experience.

Amazing experience, great hosts, you can have a really spirital experience too with a lot of reflexion if you feel like it but it's not forced at all. The location is also incredible with a lot of nature and small villages nearby. I would recommend biking, because that is the best for exploring the region. The people there are amazing and the organization is on point. I was a little concerned about the sleeping place, as you sleep in a dorm, but the dorms are also amazing and clean with bathrooms.

The best experience I could have ever had as my first volunteer experience and as a solo female traveler. The facilities were very nice and clean. I slept in an 8-person dormitory just for women, with a bathroom. The castle is amazing, and the vibes in this place are very peaceful and calm. The group of volunteers I got the chance to share this experience with was spectacular. We got really close in a short time and had the opportunity to make wonderful memories together. The people were AMAZING; I had such a good experience that I will join them for the SummerBuddhistFestival in England

My stay at the the Center was an ideal first experience as a solo traveler. Everyone was extremely welcoming and friendly, and I wish I could have stayed there for more than a week. Even though I only speak and understand some French, it was a perfect opportunity to learn the language and improve. The surroundings are peaceful and an excellent opportunity to relax and unwind. I couldn't have wished for a better experience than the one I had. Thank you for everything:)
