Our experience here was truly unique! We had the opportunity to discover a little corner in the heart of Romania and meet people we'll carry in our hearts forever. Gheorghe and Adelina are such a special couple — they welcomed us with kindness, shared abundant meals, and even took us to explore the region. We were happy to contribute with different tasks at the guesthouse, and it was always done in a warm and supportive atmosphere. Since it's a guesthouse in the countryside, there's always plenty of work to be done, but it was a pleasure to help. Thank you for this unforgettable experience!

Volunteering at the guest house was an amazing experience. The work was cleaning and organizing the 7 rooms and the bungalow in a rural area, which requires dedication. Gheorghe, the 75-year-old owner, is very kind, always willing to help, and even took us to visit the mountains and the city. His wife Adelina is lovely and makes the best soups we have ever had. They welcomed us like family, I felt at home and they became my parents in Romania. I left with a full heart and hope to meet them again.

My experience at the guest house was absolutely amazing. The place is surrounded by nature, animals, and friendly neighbors. From the very first moment, I felt welcomed. Gheorghe and Adelina are wonderful people it was a pleasure to meet them and spend time together. They made me feel at home, and we shared beautiful moments. I learned about Romanian culture and even took part in some festivities, thanks to them. the guest house is a serene and beautiful place, perfect for connecting with nature. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for something unique.

My first week at Casa was a bit disappointing because the agreements weren't respected. I greatly thank the hosts for arranging other opportunities for me. I also thank Adelina for going out of her way to make sure I was comfortable and accommodated for. However, my last week at casa was very enjoyable largely thanks to my hosts and fellow volunteers.

Unfortunately, I didn't have a good experience at Casa Tradicional and had to leave early. Adelina was very kind, caring, and welcoming. It was a pleasure to meet her. However, Gheorghe did not treat me with respect. On my second day, I became very ill (vomiting multiple times, high fever, etc.). Despite my state, Gheorghe pressured me to work the next day. He entered my room without knocking, dismissed my illness, and called me weak and lazy, among other things. After this, we agreed it would be best for both sides if I left and returned somewhere I could properly rest and recover.

Volunteering at the “the guest house” was incredible and enriching. From day one, Ardelina and Gheorge were very kind and concerned about us. The main task was to tidy up the rooms in the guesthouse and also to help with improvements to the outside areas of the house. We became very connected with the local culture and whenever possible they took us to see new places and meet new people. I recommend this volunteer to everyone

I spent a month volunteering at the guest house and really enjoyed my stay. The hosts were welcoming, flexible and friendly. They were kind enough to take me for a day trip to explore the outskirts of Satu Mare, where I got to learn a lot about Romanian culture. I had many opportunities to spend my evenings in the city where I made many friends. The work is simple and easy, all jobs that I did were clearly outlined in the description of the stay before I arrived.

My experience at the guest house was spectacular. Gheorghe and Adelina are very lovely and kind hosts, they showed us to traditional foods and places in Romania and we had a great time together with immersion in local culture and feeling at home. The job was to organized and clean the guests' rooms. I am very happy and satisfied to have been able to help you, thank you for everything.

My time in the traditional house left many teachings in me. Gheorghe and Adelina are very kind people, generous with food. The room where I slept was comfortable. They took us to see beautiful places, and the daily tasks were many but simple to do. I just think Gheorghe should trust more and delegate tasks so progress can be made. I hope to return to Satu Mare someday ☺️✨

I enjoyed my time helping Gheorghe. Since I'm a native English speaker, I feel communication required additional effort on both our parts. Gheorghe and Adelina were extremely welcoming and generous, especially with food. They went out of their way to help me connect with locals and explore the surrounding area. If I had to improve something, I would assume more structure to the tasks. Although this is a personal preference, it didn't take away from completing work. I had a wonderful experience exploring Romania. The experience and time spent was well worth it.
