This was my first volunteering experience and it could not have been better. Budi and his mother are so nice to every volunteer, I really felt at home in my time staying there. I saw so much of the north half of Lombok because Budi took us to many places like beautiful waterfalls and beaches. Also I got to try many local dishes and everything was so delicious because of Rakhmas amazing cooking skills. It was really interesting learning about permaculture and everything that comes with it.. I would recommend this absolutely everyone that wants to have a real local experience with amazing people

Volunteering with Budy in the organization was one of the best experiences of my trip! ❤️ I had the opportunity to support his project, help with social media content, and learn about the local culture, traditional cooking, and daily life in the community. Budy also took us to beautiful places, from mountains to waterfalls and incredible sunset spots. He has a beautiful vision for his community, and I hope to see his project continue to grow. I'm leaving with so many beautiful memories and a deeper connection to Lombok! 🌿

I spent 9 days with Budi and his family, and I feel so lucky to have had this experience. I helped with the permaculture project and at the local school, and I truly felt part of the community. I got to experience their culture and celebrations, enjoy beautiful sunsets on the beach, and discover the amazing mountains and waterfalls of Lombok. A big thank you to the whole family for making me feel so welcome, and to Rahma for her delicious food! I truly recommend this project if you want to discover the real beauty of Lombok and its people.

I had an incredibly wonderful time at Budi and Rahma's home. I felt welcome right away, had my own private room, and the food was prepared with love every day. Budi was always there for us and took us to the most beautiful spots and activities, including school, teaching the children at Budi's home, playing Uno with the neighborhood kids, and the day trips to beautiful places and waterfalls. So much love to Budi and his family and all the loving people in Belating <3

Just go! I still don't have enough words to describe the experience in the organization. I will always cheer from the deep of my heart for Budi and Rahma, his mom. Since the beggining Budi was extremely kind and gentle about how could I arrive in the property, always bringing suggestions about what could we do in the region. We have deep conversations about the organization tourism and I could properly see with my eyes and live with my body a tradicional village of Indonesia, this part that you dont find easily and barely listen about. It was a school for live, no doubts. Obrigada, Terima kasih. <333
