To volunteer in Tara the Center it's been an amazing experience. I learned about Buddhism, I get to practice my English with the residents and other volunteers. Everyone is so kind, loving and caring. The working hours are fair, comfy bed on a big bedroom, delicious food everyday, you can attend meditation sessions. Overall I would totally recommend to others to come.

I must start by saying thank you. It was an absolutely amazing experience. Everyone was so wonderful and warm. It was safe and felt like a home away from home! It was also fun work! This was my first ever Worldpackers trip and it has opened the doors to a new world of travel and adventure. Feeling grateful and so so inspired! I will be back.

Olá!!! The work can be divided into areas, which can change during a week: kitchen, garden (a little heavier/not impossible), maintenance and household. Being in a the Center environment, like Tara, is an opportunity to grow as a person. Ximena and her sister are always ready to guide, Donna is a sweet person. It was essential to be there to look at myself more and evolve. By prior arrangement, you can even participate in events. Be open to discovering a new culture. I spent weeks, I recommend it. :) Abraço. Até!

I had a fantastic time volunteering at Tara the Center, everyone there is super welcoming and I felt at home there very quickly. There are lots of different jobs to do and the flexibility is great. The grounds are amazing for working outside and the location is very peaceful. Brilliant food and facilities, and interesting classes for those wanting to learn more about Buddhism. Very relaxed atmosphere :)

Tara is a super special place and I feel very fortunate to have been able to volunteer here! The energy of those who live at Tara is something I have never experienced before in this capacity, everyone is so calm, helpful, generous, and inspiring. Being able to go to as many meditation/prayer classes as a volunteer was a huge bonus and am so grateful for all I have learned during my stay here. I worked solely in the cafe for 3 weeks and loved it! I loved living in this space and cannot wait to visit again soon <3 PS the food is amazing and the girls dorm is super spacious and clean!

I was lucky enough to spend almost all of my volunteer time in the café and truly loved it there! I got to learn how to make espresso drinks which was a goal of mine. It consisted of meeting locals, talking with guests and serving food/drinks. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about beginner the Center/dharma practices, going to prayers, meditations and reading the free e-books provided. I learned beginner techniques that I can take away and apply to my daily life. I hope to be back one day. Thank you to Sam H, Harry, Sukha, Nat, Ximena, Sam S, Tharlam, Both Donnas, Gen Dema, Nick, Mark M, Keith🤍🤍🤍

This is my second volunteer experience, and I must say it exceeded my expectations. I learned a lot about Buddhism, had the opportunity to consume only vegetarian food for two weeks, which was one of the experiences I wanted to have, met amazing people from different parts of the world. Additionally, I developed skills while helping in the café, kitchen, or forest. I am very grateful and without a doubt, it is an experience I would repeat.

My experience in Tara was just perfect. I learned a lot about the Center Buddhism and met INCREDIBLE people that I will always have in my heart! This place is so peaceful and beautiful and perfect for practicing English. The working schedule is generally long but super fun. I recommend this place 100%. I love Tara💘
