Omry
Israel
My time at Leo's farm was amazing. At first, it felt unclear — my friend and I were the only volunteers, helping with basic tasks like gardening and cleaning with aunties who didn't speak English but were kind. After two days, Leo arrived and brought structure and great energy. He's incredibly charismatic and made us feel welcome. Later, a group of students our age joined, and even on quiet days with little to do, it still felt meaningful. The atmosphere, people, and nature made it one of the most beautiful and special places I've ever been.

Omry and Yoav are really nice guys. Because Snow and I have already been Israel so we have lots of topic about the nature, culture food and people. We had the nature camp at that time while they two provided lots of help. They also really enjoyed the outdoor activities such as rock climbing and exploring the cave and so on. Thank you for you two all the help provided. Best wishes.
Yoav

Me and my friend arrived at the farm at the start of our journey in China. The team and other worldpackers were very warm and welcoming. The farm is also used as a hotel and we hosted a group of students from Beijing. We helped as guides for rock climbing and caving and had an absolute pleasure with them. Farming can be a little confusing because only the owner knows good English, but you get used to the hand gestures. The hours are really flexible so you should be prepared. Overall best experience I could ask for as a first volunteering job. Highly recommended!

I had spent about 10 days at the project! It was such a fun, and peaceful time. I got there at the end of the kids camp and had a chances to do outdoor activities with kids. Then I had the whole 7 days helping aunties around the place such as cleaning guest rooms and gardening. Aunties couldn't speak english and to be honest, I got in shocked with the language barrier and caused me a day to adapt to it. At the bottom line, we just tried to understand each other and translator app worked well. 3 meals a days was beyond great. I haven't felt hungry even second. Accommodation was good. 謝謝!

I really enjoyed my time at the project. The location is very peaceful and beautiful, surrounded by nature and mountains. The work varies a bit day to day, from working in the garden to assisting with various tasks around the house or helping out with guests. Communication was a bit challenging at times, and there were moments when I wasn't totally sure what needed to be done. But everyone was kind and patient, and I always felt welcomed and included. It was a meaningful experience overall that I am very grateful for.

I had a great time volunteering at the project and Farm in Yangshuo. The farm is peaceful and beautiful, surrounded by nature. Mr. Liu is a kind and caring host, and the work was fair and well-organized. Food is fresh and mostly from the farm. The local staff were friendly, special Ms. Mo (Mo Ayi) and Ms. Zhang (Zhang Ayi) though mostly spoke dialect. Best to visit during peak seasons to join fun activities like rock climbing and tie-dye. A meaningful and refreshing experience—I'm truly grateful!
