A huge thank you to Bich and her family for welcoming me into their home. This is by far the most authentic homestay I've experienced in Vietnam—you truly share daily life with the Red Dzao tribe in the beautiful mountains of Ha Giang, near the Chinese border. In just one week, I learned so much about plants, cooking, and local traditions. Volunteering tasks range from cooking and cleaning to helping with social media—perfect for those who are curious and eager to help. An unforgettable experience that I truly hope to repeat one day!

I spent an amazing week staying at the home's Homestay! Bich and her family were so welcoming and friendly and it was so great to learn about local life and culture in the Cao Bao mountains! In such a beautiful and peaceful location it is the perfect place to slow down and relax. I would love to come back and visit Bich and family at some point!

The home's place is fantastic and authentic. I really enjoyed the way you can immerse yourself in the local life of the Red Dzao people. Here Bich taught us more on their way of living their perception of life and a lot of amazing tea! Bich's family is very hospitable and kind as they welcome you into their family. Be sure to prepare yourself in during winter as it can be very cold and there is no heating. The only source of heat will be the fire in the kitchen or when covering yourself with a blanket (Showers were nice and warm too). I am thankful for this amazing experience🙏🏻

A wonderful experience at the home's home! Together with my partner, we got to da lot for social media, help with her website, create images and help with the home's biggest passion; tea! We have packed and sorted all the tea packages. The experience is back to basic, like stepping back in time for 200 years (by European standards). Very special and beautiful to experience, the family tries extremely hard to make you feel at home and they cook delicious meals for you 3 times every day. All in all, a great experience that enriched us as human beings in every way.

My stay with the home and her family was truly such an amazing and lovely experience. From the start I was welcomed into her home with open arms. the home is truly such a warm kindhearted individual and we became dear friends. She cares very much about making you feel comfortable and at home. I was sick during my stay and she helped me buy medication and made some homemade remedies for me. Of course the nature and surrounding area was absolutely ethereal and gave me 7 days of serenity and calm. I hope to come back to visit in the near future.

Thank you, the home, for inviting us into your home and sharing insights into your culture! the home was a warm and welcoming host, as was her family. Unfortunately, we visited during the off-season, so there wasn't much to do except drink tea and take walks. During most of our stay, the home was away on a business trip to Hanoi, so we spent time with her family, who didn't speak English. This made it hard to learn about the culture, but the fresh, traditional meals they served every day were delicious!

Volunteering with the home in Cao Bồ was an unforgettable experience! From day one, she and her family welcomed me warmly. I truly appreciated the chance to learn about the local culture and support her community in any way I could. the home generously shared her Indigenous and traditional wisdom, which I'll cherish long after this trip. Although I wish I could have stayed longer, I'm leaving with a heart full of gratitude and inspiration to continue meaningful work in my own community.

Absolutely wonderful experience, super immersive and intensely fun. The surrounding area is so gorgeous, the people do welcoming, and the home is an absolute angel. If you're hoping for a truly local, more remote than most work exchange than this is for you. I hope to return some day in the near future :)
