Jeff and Sunny are truly wonderful people and I am grateful to have met them. Their kindness and dedication made the experience even more special. I was also lucky to work alongside other amazing volunteers, whose support and camaraderie made the trip easier.

Staying in Olustee with Jeff was great. Jeff is a wonderful host who will truly make you feel welcome and like you are family. Olustee itself is a small town so it's perfect if you want to take a step back from busy city life. The activities were dynamic, doing new things all the time and I really enjoyed this. The living space was brilliant, really cosy condo with plenty of space. Jeff you're the best!

At Jeff's International House, I lived with people from all over the world and worked on various tasks every day. Living with friends from different cultures and values enriched my own experiences and perspectives. It was such a meaningful experience!

Staying at Jeff and the hostel was a wonderful experience! Although I was nervous at first about the location, they were very welcoming which reassured me that my stay was safe and comfortable. Because of this, one month didn't feel like a long time at all! On weekdays we would work 3~4/day then go home to chill (we would cook, watch movies, play board games, take walks around town etc.). On weekends if we could drive go for roadtrips (eg. Oklahoma City), or just relax in town. Most importantly, hanging out with fellow travelers was a blast, and I would say I had no regrets at all.
