My experience at Liz's house was beautiful. I was able to learn a lot at her farm, continue to improve my English and enjoy both her hospitality and the hospitality of interlaken which is truly a beautiful place I made beautiful memories with fellow volunteers and with the work done I highly recommend this experience.

Liz is wonderful, she's so welcoming, always in a great mood, and loves chatting and giving tips on how to make the most of your time in Switzerland. The work is split between cleaning the flats and gardening, and everything is clearly explained and never complicated. Interlaken is absolutely charming, with plenty of leisure options, if you enjoy hiking, cycling, or paddleboarding, it's the perfect place. Switzerland truly feels like paradise, and this has been the best volunteer experience I've had so far. Liz, thank you so much for everything. I'll definitely be back soon! ❤️
