This was such a cool experience that I recommend. It was my first Worldpackers trip, the other volunteers where so kind and it helped me improve my english. Annick is very nice and comprehensive, she makes us discover local food. The environnement is calm and ideal for running or cycling.

My time with the camp and Annick was incredible! Overall, the tasks were easy and straightforward, simply taking care of the animals, cleaning bathroom facilities and B&B, and some odd chores here and there. Plenty of time to bike around the town and explore in the afternoons/evenings. Annick was readily available and a good communicator, she made me feel at home and comfortable. This was my first Worldpackers experience and it was wonderful. Can't wait to come back!

Annick is a great host! She is very welcoming, easy going and generous. I was able to rest, work, volunteer at the same time. She also shared her experience , Dutch culture and food and took us to the local museum on a weekends. You may ask for her help, extra towel or anything else and you will also have plenty of time for yourself. The camping is quiet, peaceful and you may ride a bike and swim in the lake. Besides it the roads around is created for running. So enjoy your stay as I did. Hope I'll get back one day

Annick is exceptional, attentive, and endlessly patient. Even with my basic English, she always found ways to understand me, making me feel welcome from day one. Waking up to peaceful farm landscapes was the perfect digital detox. Animal care were well-structured and surprisingly fun. Sweet surprise: She even spoiled us with authentic regional dishes on weekends As my first volunteering experience, it exceeded all expectations. Annick, it was amazing meeting you! Thanks for everything!

The camping is an amazing place with amazing people! Staying here I was made to feel at home in another country which is a lovely feeling to have. The work is very easy and straightforward and you have a lot of spare time to explore surrounding areas on bicycles provided. The host Annick is a very friendly and kind person, same to be said about her friend Anneke. I also want to mention that Annick took me to experiences outside of the camping which she did not have to do,but did out the kindness of her heart. She created memories for myself which I will never forget.
