It's really az amazing experience. You can connect with nature, with yourself and of course with these beautiful soul people. It's a perfectly calm place to practice the Center and to learn a lot about nature. I'm really very grateful for this possibility! I loved it so much! Thank you!

I had a great experience at the Center. Working together with other volunteers, gardening, learning to cook Thai food and for me most importantly, learning about Buddhism. We were welcomed and treated very good.

Coming to this the Center lead me to a deeper relationship with Buddhism. I learned a lot about Thai Buddhism through the books in the library and the “Dhamma” talks we had during the evenings. Furthermore, I fostered meaningful relationships with the staff and my fellow volunteers through our time shared here. Traveling solo is not always easy, but the people here made it easy for me to feel home. I recommend this center for those who are curious and interested in Buddhism.
