This was my first experience with Worldpackers, and I went in without any expectations. Luckily, this place gave me so many memories, laughter, and peace. The nature around is beautiful—perfect for hikes—and seeing the stars so clearly every night was truly amazing. I'm grateful that I got to experience off-grid living with such great people!

The Center invites quietness and self-reflection. Silvia & Jay host yoga, dance and boxing classes; I tried Kundalini yoga for the first time & it was best session I've ever had! We cook and share meals together, the work is simple & we have plenty of free time. You can hike, swim, chat, paint or simply relax in the hammocks. Tbh I struggled with the slower rhythm, it reminded me life doesn't always need to be a challenge, I rediscover the beauty of being present, in ease and enjoying time for myself. I trully recommend this place to anyone seeking for connection, nature and peace.

Jay and Silvia were truly wonderful people. the Center is a gold mine of opportunity if you have the eyes to see it and the ears to hear it. My wife and I found some people who did not enjoy their time there, but I think it is only because they lacked imagination or openness to new experiences. Some apparently would have been completely satisfied only if the stay was one endless, entertainment party; this isn't to say these people made the place worse off - it just created a dynamic of discontent and awkwardness. Im out of space! Text me if you want the rest of the story. TLDR: COME!!

Staying at the Center was an unforgettable experience. The place itself is absolutely breathtaking, surrounded by stunning nature that allows you to truly slow down, reconnect with yourself, and feel part of something bigger. What made it even more special were the wonderful, loving people I had the chance to meet and share time with. There's a beautiful energy here that combines peace, authenticity, and community. If you are looking for a place to connect with nature, with others, and with your own inner self, this is the perfect spot. I will always carry this experience in my heart.

This place holds magic and peace. Silvia and Jay are both welcoming,kind and warm. They organize yoga,boxing and dance classes and have many ideas and projects around the place. The tasks are easy and volunteers have a lot of free time. Anyone can make its own impact on the house. Another amazing thing was being surrounded by people from all over the world and make true connections. It definitely felt like home

The Center is a wonderful place where time flows differently. Jay and Silvia were always very helpful and welcoming. I loved the connection with nature, with the other volunteers, and the activities offered by the hosts, such as yoga, boxing and dancing classes. Being in a remote area can give you the feeling of being a little isolated but for me it was a positive aspect, as it helped me to get even more immersed in nature and interact with the other volunteers. The tasks were generally easy and flexible. Overall, the experience exceeded my expectations and I would definitely go back!

It was such a great place to be to get away. If you're looking for a quiet, almost retreat, this is the place. Jay and Silvia were great. Not just standing back but wanting and willing to be part of the activities, the group dynamic and the even the chores around the house. Thanks to this experience, I have made some truest amazing friends!

I had so much fun in 'the Center', here you have the chance to meet people all over the world and to build strong connections, which is the greatest thing of this place. We attended a couple of yoga lessons by Silvia, and a few boxing and dance ones by Jay. I really enjoyed them. I put 5 stars because i feel like this place has so much potential but i must say there are a few things that could have been organised better. The house is really old, too old, not sure if this is in a good sense. I was expecting to volounteer in an ecofarm but we did almost nothing related to that:(

Staying at the Center was an amazing experience. I met so many beautiful people and learnt so much from everyone. Sylvia and Jay are still getting the hang of how to run the house but I know that with their passion and dedication it will become an even better place to go. As long as you go into this project with the correct expectations, you'll have a great time. There's lots of free time to hang out, and the food is communally cooked and vegetarian. It is definitely not the place if you are looking for hard work, but if you just want to relax then definitely go!
