A wonderful place! I enjoyed every single bit of working as a volunteer. The overall involvement of my time in the Center was excellent and I would recommend the place to anyone who wants to live and experience Northern Germany properly. One of the most enjoyable things was not surprisingly the people- TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS. It seemed that no matter what the goal was for the day or how much the language barrier interferred, everyone was willing to help one another and put in work when it was needed. I'll never forget the adventue, and I'm very grateful to the staff who helped us during our stay!

Volunteering at the Center was the perfect combination of work and relaxing in the peaceful forest. During my stay, I did housekeeping, kitchen help and preparing the bonfire. The work schedule was structured and the work hours were respected. When not working, I attended the yoga classes offered to the guests. Another free-time activity was using the available bikes to cycle to nearby towns. A bonus for me was the German class offered on Saturdays, and the teacher was very kind and patient. Vielen Dank to all the Center staff and other volunteers for this special experience :-)

If you are searching for a place to create deep connection with people, but also spend some time alone with yourself in a secluded space, I think the Center is perfect! The stuff is super friendly and the chefs will make sure that you're always stuffed with food! The work is well structured and it changes each week, so it is likely that you will have different tasks. There's the possibility to attend the Center meditation classes and each week you're going to attend a German lecture. If you want to visit the surrounding you are provided with bikes :)

The best experience with volunteering I had so far! The workers are very kind and inclusive, making you feel at home right away. The volunteers I met here were super nice and friendly. The German teacher was also very fun to talk with! Overall it was an amazing experience and I would definitely recommend it!!!

This was my first worldpackers experience, and I had a magical time. What made this time so special was the amazing friendships I made with my 6 fellow volunteers. The staff at the Center made our stay equally as amazing, by planning parties for us, taking us on a special dinner excursions. The other volunteers and I planned movie nights, game nights, and talked late into the evening. The accommodations were comfortable and the food was awesome (especially breakfast)!! The work is clearly structured. There are 3 shifts: 6am-12:30pm, 8am-2pm, 3pm-9pm. I'm forever grateful for my time here

The highlight of my time at the Center was the other volunteers I met and worked with. It truly is a community that you become part of, in which the people are kind, supportive and encouraging. The growth that I experienced here is something that I will be grateful for for a long time. I worked as a kitchen hand and server, I cooked, baked and practised my german. There is some room for improvement, which I have communicated with the host, which will help to keep all volunteers safe and well there.

I had a great experience in the Center ! The place is really beautiful and the room for the workys is very pretty and comfortable ! Food was also good, a little repetitive sometimes but very tasty. About the tasks, they were a little exhausting sometimes (especially Housekeeping and Gardening). Negative points : sometimes you were alone doing the work, which increased the difficulty and the responsibility of it, and also I had the impression that only girls were doing all the cleaning work :/ (guys can also clean remember! ). Despite that, I had an amazing time with the others workys ! :))

My time at the Center didn't go as expected, but was still an enjoyable experience due to friendly staff and other wonderful volunteers. However, the expected role that I was to carry out didn't align with the tasks I actually had to complete. I signed up to be a bartender, but upon arrival, I soon learned “ the challenge of the Center,” is to undertake different roles. These include kitchen, hand, service, housekeeping, Gardening. I wasn't happy about the lack of transparency regarding the roles, especially since this was something I'd communicated with them from the start. So, Just a heads up.

È quasi divertente di nuovo, se non fosse così triste... ti abbiamo informato per iscritto in anticipo sulle varie attività, abbiamo anche fatto una videoconferenza con te, dove abbiamo spiegato ancora una volta esattamente quali mansioni ci sono in Sagasfeld Waiting for you, avevamo già sottolineato in anticipo che devi parlare un po' di tedesco per il lavoro nel servizio al ristorante, non è servito a nulla e proprio perché non ci hai ascoltato bene, ci dai 3 stelle... non si può inventarlo :-) È quello che è, hai comunque fatto un ottimo lavoro, anche se era completamente diverso da quello che ti aspettavi prima... ma lo sai che cosa? È proprio per questo che esistono stage e viaggi all'estero :-) Olaf

The 6 hours work a day was strangely draining and I'm used to 12+. If you are coming for yoga/ the Center I wouldn't recommend. I learnt about some the Center from Dr Paul but due to our meal times and eating leftovers for lunch it's impossible to follow an Ayurvedic diet. My first room was amazing and everything was so clean. It is in a very remote area, this can be nice to be out of big cities. Andreas H, Sarah, Dr Paul and Lea (yoga teacher) were all very lovely and spent time with us volunteers. These people and the volunteers are what made it so great, there was a great sense of community.

È molto importante che i volontari non abbiano false aspettative prima dell'arrivo. Per questo motivo vorrei sottolineare e ripetere l'affermazione di Mia sul tema del cibo. Infatti non c'è cibo ayurvedico per i dipendenti ogni giorno. C'è colazione, pranzo e cena gratuiti, e bevande analcoliche. Ed è vero che all'ora di pranzo potrebbe esserci solo un'insalata o una zuppa. Nel pomeriggio c'è anche frutta, torta e biscotti. La ristorazione è buona, ma per favore non aspettarti che cuciniamo diete ayurvediche speciali per te o che prepariamo pasti à la carte. Un ospite non è Hotel Mama e siamo con Workaway e non con Holidayaway. Questo è a volte dimenticato dai volontari :-)

If you are looking for a peaceful nature place and improve your German come her! They offer you an amazing share room, bonfires, yoga classes, an art room where you can paint, play instruments... space for you and very good food with the quantity you want. However, they don't know what is permaculture and don't offer holistic therapies. The shifts are ok, tired, but good. I learn and enjoy in the kitchen and, in my case, I loved work in the garden. Arrived there is a little bit complicated, you are in the deep Germany but the people around are very eco and alternative. Thank u the Center!

Anche se offriamo oltre 80 terapie diverse dai campi del benessere, della medicina tradizionale cinese e dell'Ayurveda, hai ragione, non offriamo alcuna formazione per i nostri stagisti che restano solo quattro settimane. E sebbene il nostro grande giardino e la spirale di erbe siano stati ideati da un paesaggista secondo le linee guida della permacultura e abbiamo anche un piccolo orto, hai anche ragione nel dire che non offriamo alcuna formazione extra su questo tema, a parte mostrarti come diserbare, coltivare il suolo e spiegare quando è il periodo di raccolta delle patate ;-) Naturalmente offriamo anche corsi di formazione, ad es. nel campo dell'Ayurveda, ma non come parte di uno stage di quattro settimane. Tuttavia, ogni stagista riceve tutti i compiti e le condizioni generali prima di arrivare e prima che fissiamo un appuntamento. Nell'ambito di questa comunicazione, si possono porre molte domande, ad es. su cose importanti per te. Sfortunatamente non l'hai fatto. Per non creare ulteriori confusioni, ho ora cancellato queste icone. Non voglio creare aspettative che non possiamo né vogliamo soddisfare. Non vorrei che uno degli stagisti si lamentasse che le nostre lezioni di yoga si tengono in tedesco o che l'area della sauna possa essere usata solo in orari prestabiliti ;-)
