I really enjoyed my time volunteering at the project Waters! Juliet is a very kind host and an excellent cook. I was mostly helping out with gardening, with a little bit of housekeeping work.The schedule is quite flexible as there's always something that can be worked on, the gardening work was mostly mildly physical and I found it quite centering. It was also really nice to get to know some of the community members and familiar faces from the neighbourhood. It was just the restorative experience I was hoping to have after a lot of fast-paced travel.
