I had such an amazing time with judit. She is so so lovely and makes you feel so warm and welcome right from the start. She gives you so much time to explore the surrounding area and you can do day trips to lots of different towns all along the coast by catching a local bus. The boys are so polite and well behaved, it doesn't really feel like work as they are a pleasure to be around. And the food is amazing. Would definitely recommend this volunteer, definitely one of my favourite ones so far!!

This has been my best volunteering experience so far, I loved Sri Lanka but what really made my trip special was this lovely family💘💘 Leo and Levi are the most amazing kids ever, so easy to be around and full of joy, and Judit is an amazing host (and cook) who will always make you feel welcomed and included. The area is incredibly beautiful and you'll get plenty of time to explore around because its location is perfect since it's close to all the best spots. Thank you for everything Judit, Leo and Levi and I hope to see you again veeery soooon!!💞💓

I had the best time with Judit and the kids. For 3 weeks it felt like I was part of a very loving family. The kids are so sweet and easy to be around with, you'll love them immediately!! Judit was so generous, open and including, I got to learn a lot about the Sri Lankan culture, Unawatanu and surroundings. It's so nice after some travelling to have a home and routine for a bit again. I'm really grateful for my time here. Ooooh and I'm already missing Judit's dahl curry, she's the best cook ever!!!❤️

My time with Judit in Sri Lanka was truly special. She welcomed me with so much warmth and made me feel like part of the family from the very beginning. Her home is full of peace, love, and positive energy. Judit is a generous and inspiring person, and I'm so grateful for the meaningful conversations and all the care she gave. And I already miss Leo and Levi so much—two amazing boys who brought so much joy to my days! Thank you, Judit, for everything. I'll always remember this experience with love and hope to return one day.

My time with Judit and the kids here was truly unforgettable. The connection i had with them was one of the highlights if my trip. I felt so lucky to be a part of this family, levi and leo are some of the kindest most charming kids ever. Judit is super hard working and an amazing person to be around with great energy. Its the perfect place to explore the beautiful south coast from, connect with local culture, meet other travelers, and maybe even pick up a new passion for surfing!
