My experience with the home it was excellent. I really enjoy share daily life and work with the other volunteers and the managers, who created such a warm, welcoming, and inspiring environment. The new place, The Healing Camp, has so much potential and is surrounded by breathtaking landscapes. It's the kind of place where you instantly feel comfortable, connected to nature, and genuinely fortunate to work and spend time there. I'm especially grateful for the opportunity to leave a small piece of myself and my art in this beautiful project.

I really enjoyed my time here ✨ This place is definitely best for flexible people, and I highly recommend knowing how to ride a motorbike or being willing to learn, since it makes the experience much easier and more enjoyable. The food is amazing, the staff is very kind, and overall it's a beautiful place to stay. The organization could improve a little sometimes, but honestly, if you are an adaptable and open-minded volunteer, this can be one of the best experiences ever 🫶🏽

My experience in the home was beautiful, even tho a bit different than the description here. The work was as a waitress in a restaurant, but as it was low season most of the time was spent interacting with people and vietnamese colleagues. The accommodation was lovely and we could eat for free in several different restaurants. The manager, Thang, is very flexible and let the volunteers manage the shifts by themselves. I had the luck to live this experience with other amazing people and create connections with a lot of locals as well. Truly recommended!
