No pude finalizar la experiencia por un motivo de peso pero el anfitrión me ayudó en todo lo que estaba en su mano y me llevaron en coche hasta el aeropuerto. No tengo ninguna queja. Lo volvería a hacer.

I stayed less than a week at Forest 8 Senses.
I believe I arrived at a quiet time, as I was supposed to help with construction, but there wasn’t much going on. I ended up cleaning algae stains from bamboo— I was ok with this task even though it’s different from the work description.
I chose to shorten my stay as I was mainly looking for a more physically active environment. Also, seeing animals in cages made me feel uneasy, and over time I became a bit uncomfortable. That said, everyone seeks different things, and I’d recommend this place to anyone open to a variety of tasks.

The overall experience was extremely lacking particularly for me as a woman. i was supposed to help the caretaker to maintain the campsite but was always met with an abrupt no when i tried to help. The owner showed very limited communication skills and i had to figure out my own work for the most part. The animals on the property are extremely neglected and i tried my best to better their circumstances but the owner doesn't really care. i felt unsafe a lot of the time especially having to cross the campground at night to go to the toilet. The owner's responses to reviews are empty promises

Thanks Mieke for your help on the land especially on the animals care.. (could see your affection towards the animals like my daughters)

at our best we have dedicated a room for lady so that you would have your privacy where the man are on share dorm. As the Long house is under construction, once completed there are washroom facilities that are closer to the volunteers stay..

do understand your unsafe feeling. I do agreed on your request to leave early instead of a month to 2 weeks..
