The Experience

Come join us in the village of Ibel to help with agricultural missions such as planting fruit trees, as well as vegetables, building a sturdy fence, and tending our garden. Our home is located at the foot of Iwol Mountain, a very touristy Bedick village. We will be happy to treat you to traditional dishes and to teach you our native language.

It was a wonderful experience; I shared many great moments with the villagers, I got to know their culture inside out, and they treated me as a member of the family.
They were very intrusive with me from the very first moment, and it’s a fantastic community.
I’m left with all the good things from this week and the work I learned and carried out during volunteering.
They are ten out of ten people.

Thank you very much Pablo for your appreciation. Pablo is a very available, hardworking, friendly and pleasant person to be around. We had extraordinary moments. He helped me a lot in the garden by refurbishing my well. We shared experiences. Honestly I hope he comes back again and I strongly recommend him.

An incredible village in a dream setting, playful children, a welcoming family, everything you need to have the best moments! However I did not find that we had done volunteering; it was more of an experience 'Booking with paid activities', this is not what we were looking for nor what this app aims to promote... Thanks anyway to Souleyman and all his family for these good moments 🌸
