This has been a super interesting experience, I'm really satisfied with the work I've done here, I've gotten a lot of awareness about sustainability, textile recycling and how to contribute to enviromental care. Furthermore, since I was helping with social media management and content creation, I was able to improve my skills in editing and recording videos. All the staff were super friendly and able to help with anything i needed not to mention the super accomodation and fresh/yummy meals i got so If you are considering to come here just do it cause you'll love itt. Gracias Amerul, Thanks the community

This was my 5th experience, and the best!! Everything exceeded my expectations. Accommodation: a real luxury for a backpacker. Food: incredible and suitable for all diets (vegetarian, vegan, halal, etc.). Work: fun and fair, the staff are incredibly kind and the tasks are really interesting. Host: very kind, organized, clear in his expectations, and funny (sometimes). It's also a big advantage to have a car, which allowed us to go on weekend trips and discover more of Malaysia. We also learned a whole lot about textile recovery and Malaysian culture. I can't recommend this place enough!!!

My stay at the community was beyond expectations, I just kept on extending as I really felt at home there 💚 The accommodation is soo comfortable, it is a very modern apartment with comfortable beds, couch and TV, lot of space to put your stuff. The cook Nora cooked amazing vegetarian food for each meal. We could use the company car for going around and for weekends and didn't have to pay for gas, tolls and parking. the community staff is so kind and we taught us a lot about Malaysian culture. I learned a lot about textile waste and recovery while preparing the volunteering program. I can only recommend 💚

Volunteering at the community was educational and truly rewarding! Joe and the community team were extremely welcoming and friendly! Our tasks were fun and diverse, from assisting with school tours to helping with social media. The team were also so open to hearing about our ideas and skillsets and accommodate to those. I also learnt a lot about Malaysia and its culture through the cooking class, language class, days out, conversations and people. As well as the great food from Nora and modern accommodation, I would definitely recommend this experience!!

I spent over 6 weeks at the community, and during this time I learned a lot about textile waste management and recycling, which we also helped to pass on to students. We also got to know about Malaysian culture, up close, thanks to the locals' hospitality. The staff is very helpful and always available. The food is wonderful and they always took care of my special dietary needs (vegan). The factory, the office and the comfortable, hotel-quality accomodation are located in the same building next to a highway, but thanks to the car they provided us, we were able to explore the area.
