I had a great time at the organization. The balance of work hours and freedom was perfect for me. Our jobs were fun and sometimes unexpected - such as starting a podcast! Although it was less social than I envisioned, with just one other volunteer, we made lovely memories together. A special mention is necessary for the hosts, Anthony and Marenka, who were extremely caring and attentive throughout, as well as being very enjoyable to spend time with. I would 100% recommend the experience, especially if you love city life!

Awesome home in an awesome city. I learned a lot about social issues and activism. The work was sometimes a bit disorganized and spontaneous but Marenka and Anthony are super chill! You get an allowance to buy your own groceries so my stay here mostly turned into an awesome cooking residency :)) I made great connections here and would be delighted to come back. Thank you for everything!

It was a wonderful experience! The work really depends on the campaign they're focusing on at the moment and the local events happening in the city, which makes it dynamic and interesting. I'd definitely recommend it if you enjoy alternative environments. Leipzig—especially this neighborhood—has so much to offer!

I had a great experience with this volunteer project! The idea behind the organization and the change they are trying to achieve is very meaningful and Marenka was an amazing host: very welcoming and attentive with our possible needs since day one. The area of the project is lively and due to the organization's strong ties to the community you get to meet amazing people and participate in other projects and learn new skills. I would recommend this project to anyone who wants to learn how to make a positive impact on their community and wants to meet amazing people. I am sure I'll be back to visit :)

I fell in love with the experience! The area was lively, which ensures you a fun time during your stay, and it surprised me how diverse and open minded the area was. I am sure I will be back to visit! Our splendid team coordinated tasks in a way that everyone was making an impact in the project with their work. Marenka was an incredible host! She was very attentive with our needs and always asked if we needed anything. This project offers a unique chance to work with an impactful team, make international friends, and enjoy new experiences!
