It was my first volunteering experience, and I loved it so much! 100% recommend it! I had a chance to visit so many special ceremonies, celebrations, and festivals. I also learned a lot about Buddhism and meditation from monks. Teaching in schools was amazing, kids and teachers were extremely friendly and nice! The templestay and the food were great! I'm so happy I became a part of this project!

The monks took really good care of me. I got sick during my time here but they helped me so much, made me some fresh herbal tea and helped me to see a doctor. They're happy people, and it's so easy to be with them. Bhante Wassa answers you everything you want to know. The food is amazing and you have a nice place to stay at. If you think about it, I can just recommend to go for it !!

A wonderful experience which allowed us to ask questions, learn about, observe and participate in the Center culture. I received a very warm welcome from the start which was continued throughout and I was given a very comfortable room for my stay. Expect to eat an incredible amount of authentic local Sri Lankan food - truly delicious! The Sunday school is not to be missed as well as the local school in the village close to the temple. I hope to return here one day. I wish the team all the best and have no doubt this programme will continue to grow and succeed for both hosts and volunteers.

Our stay at the temple was exciting. There were a lot of activities that we could participace in but we didnt have to. Like teaching english at school for underpriviliged children, teaching english at monks school, exploring gardens full of fruits and vegetables, playing badminton with little monks, meditating. Our stay was short but it was an experience for life. Jiří &Kateřina

The stay in the temple was interesting and enriching. During our three day stay, we taught English in local school and in the monk school, explored the surrounding temples, fields and gardens. We could also participate in meditations and chants. The food and accommodation were exquisite. I can only recccomend this experience, it's a great way to start your Srí Lanka journey.

I loved my experience at the temple. I felt at home, the monks really did take care of me. It's a good way to discover buddhism and the sri Lankan culture and food. You Will Never be hungry if you stay at the temple . I stayed at the temple 5 days and I have a chance to go help in the village school several times, talking English with the children and creating a website for the school. I was also able to discover nature, visit temples, participate in ceremonies and learn meditation. I recommend this experience for people who are interested in the Center culture and want a quiet place

I really recommend the temple stay. It was a unique experience i will never forget. I couldn't imagine that there is a better way to get more insights into the culture and to get in contact with the locals. They always had a great program for us to fill our day. Espacially teaching in the school was really nice for me, but also their interest to learn us something about the buddishm.

I had a wonderful experience at the monastery. All the monks were incredibly welcoming and kind, creating a warm and peaceful atmosphere. During my stay, I followed part of their daily routine, participating in various events and meditations. We also had many interesting talks about buddhism. Whenever you have any need they are very accommodating of it. I can recommend this place to anyone looking to immerse themselves in authentic Sri Lankan culture, beyond the usual tourist trail.

It was great experience if you want to practise meditation and get to know more about Buddism and Sri Lankan culture. Also you get the chance to meet a lot of great people. They made me feel so welcome.
