Baturidi homestay volunteering

My house is an ideal place for travellers who want to switch off and reconnect with nature. Located on the edge of the jungle, you can experience the peace and tranquility of North Sumatra, surrounded by the sounds of the river and animals. It is located 45 minutes from the local village of Bukit Lawang.

My name is Romi, I work as a tour guide leading jungle treks in Bukit Lawang. I am really keen to host volunteers at my home in Baturidi. Volunteers will be provided with a tent and camping equipment, and you can make use of the kitchen. I am excited to share my knowledge of building and construction and gardening with you, as well as showing you around Bukit Lawang and the local area. Volunteers will help with basic tasks around the house, such as cleaning and gardening. I am in the process of building my hostel and would appreciate help with that. I am also looking for help and knowledge with using the internet and expanding my trekking business online.

Romi has a beautiful home far away from the city, right in the jungle next to a river, with a huge garden full of fruits and vegetables – perfect for disconnecting and relaxing.

The tasks were very simple. we planted some chilies and cleaned the garden.

Romi is a very warm-hearted and funny host. I learned a lot from him.

I really enjoyed staying at Batu Ridi Jungle. It was a very wholesome experience where I was able to live the minimalist slow life surrounded by gorgeous vegetation. Romi and his family were very welcoming and I had a lot of fun getting to know them. I would definitely recommend going jungle trekking with Romi, he knows so much about the animals and land and we got to see the majestic orangutans!! Overall a very beautiful and sweet authentic stay with the locals of Bukit Lawang.

Staying at Batu Ridi jungle was truly a great way to immerse myself in nature and live like a local. You will find no better way to push yourself out of your comfort zone, but if you can do it you will find it transformative. Expect very limited amenities such as a manual toilet and sleeping on a thin mattress in a tent, but surrounded by beautiful jungle and river views. I highly recommend going jungle trekking with Romi, as he is very knowledgeable and fun to adventure with! Volunteering here is a must for anyone seeking adventure, widlife, and authentic experiences.

Volunteering at Batu Ridi near Bukit Lawang was an amazing experience. I helped build bamboo bungalows—laying cement, making doors and windows. Romi, the host, was super friendly, funny, and made everyone feel welcome. We stayed in tents with foam mats and shared delicious (enak!) meals made from fresh market ingredients. The vibe was chill, the location stunning, and we even went catfishing one night! Highly recommend for anyone wanting to help in an active way, relax, and maybe spot orangutans in the jungle on a trek. Remember to pack a book and some mosquito repellent!
