I can't describe how amazing my experience was. In the morning, you usually go to a local school where you can spend time with the kids and teach them some english. This is an amazing experience because everyone is very welcoming and kind! In the afternoon there are some walks through the village, temple visits or ceremonys. Everyone in the temple is extremly kind, welcoming and open for good talks❤️ I learned so much in only 3 days and definitely left with a heart full of joy and gratefulness

I'm so happy I decided to join this volunteer project during my first two days in Sri Lanka—it was such a great choice! It gave me a super real and hands-on experience of the local culture. I got to hang out with local students, cook traditional Sri Lankan food, meditate on big rocks, and join peaceful chanting sessions in the evening. Bhante and his team were really kind and flexible—they never packed the schedule too tightly and always checked in with how me and the other volunteer were feeling. I honestly loved every meal they made.

My stay in the Center was something extraordinary. All the monks were very helpful and caring and made sure we can experience the local culture. I learned something about buddhism, met locals, attended ceremonies, a dance class, tried local food and much more. For the work we visited schools and chatted with kids, played games and overall taught them some english. I felt welcomed and respected at this place and I highly recommend:)

We had an amazing experience! Everything was so special and well organized! The food and the accommodation were great and clean. Volunteering at the school and being in the temple is an amazing experience! I learned a lot and felt very welcomed and comfortable there. Everyone was very open to answering questions and introducing the volunteer to their culture and religion.

I spent my last week on Sri Lanka in the temple and it was my best week during the trip! I felt welcomed from the first day. All Bhantes are very nice people, with big hearts, amazing knowledge and ready to share it with you! I had a chance to attend to ceremonies, Sunday school, practice meditation in amazing places. The food was amazing, temple and it's surrounding is beautiful and peaceful. After this experience I felt in love with Sri Lanka even more 🩵 Thank you for amazing time, hope to be back one day!
