The Experience

Welcome to Our Jungle Home!🌿 We’re Syed, a Malaysian, and Laurine, from France, living in a beautiful Island of Langkawi. We have 2 dogs. We are looking for people that can help us cut the grass with a hand machine. If you know about plumbing, house repair, that will be great. The rest is simple house keeping. You need to rent a motorbike to explore Langkawi’s beaches and waterfalls. We will provide a list of places to eat and visit.

This was truly a unique experience thanks to Laurine and Syed! I knew little to nothing about kombucha, but they were so open and patient about teaching us volunteers about everything. The tasks were clearly told to us and as agreed, we had the afternoons and weekends to ourselves. Syed and Laurine even invited us sometimes to join them on some activities like pilates and jamming sessions. I was also able to explore the island in my free time and Laurine made a whole list of things we could visit, which was super useful. Overall I felt welcomed and learned a lot. Definitely recommend!

I had an amazing week in Langkawi thanks to laurine and Sid. It was a perfect mixture of working in the mornings and free time in the afternoons to explore the island- the hosts give plenty of recommendations for places and restaurants to visit. They both share alot of knowledge about kombucha and I would recommend this to everyone especially for those who already have an interest and want to learn more.

I had an amazing stay with Syed and Laurine. They are very loving and open people that welcomes you openly into their house. I had a very fun time staying with Them and they made me get a good insight of Malaysia Culture.

We had an amazing stay with Laurine and Syed! They are so welcoming, fun and loving people. We learned so much about Kombucha, food and Malay culture. Beautiful Island, beautiful people. Make sure to rent a scooter so you can explore the beauty🤩

Volunteering here could be great but issues with both the facilities and the attitude of the hosts meant that we ended up leaving early. They have basically no water which wasn't made clear to us before we arrived. Laurine gives little guidance on tasks, but is critical if you don't do it in the way she expects. She didn't provide us with any food for lunch initially and made us feel uncomfortable when we asked for basic ingredients. Overall, it didn't feel like a mutually beneficial volunteering experience, instead an overstretched small business looking for cheap labour.
