My experience at the community Spain was really lovely. I helped with cooking and cleaning, and the work was easy and enjoyable. The team and everyone I met were wonderful, kind, and welcoming. The center itself is such a quiet and peaceful place, which made the whole experience very relaxing. The accommodation was great and so was the food. My favorite part was meeting so many great people and making new friends along the way. I really enjoyed my time here and would definitely volunteer at Kadampa again.

The experience was very pleasant. Spending the summer here with the community and other volunteers is enriching. The work consists of everyday tasks, nothing complicated. The rooms and the food are very good, and the people always care about you and make you feel at home. I highly recommend the experience at this or any other Kadampa center

This was my 2nd Kadampa center experience. This was great as my first one in France. The people are great here, you'll love here when you get here. There is also pool, which you can use when you're free. In any tasks we were not alone, there is always people to ask, to get help. I highly recommend this experience to anyone. If you like peace for sure. Thanks for everything Kadampa Malaga.

I am amazed by this experience, this is the first time that my mum and I did volunteering and this is one of the best things that happened to us. The people were so friendly, the food was delicious and we had a fun time helping out. The memories will stay forever from this place! While you can relax and find peace within yourself, you can socialise with many people so it’s a perfect balance.
