The Center is a truly wonderful place, filled with the most amazing people! From the moment you arrive, you feel welcomed into the Center family, living, working, cooking and eating together. The place itself is a beautiful oasis in the hills near Lagos, complete with temple, sauna and pool that you're able to use when the retreat guests aren't using them. The work is mixed depending on your skills and experience, but everything is well explained and you're always felt valued. I would recommend MV to anyone who enjoys living and working in a community - it's truly fantastic!

This was the perfect 1st international volunteer experience! The staff was extremely kind, respectful, and funny and the other volunteers (around 10) made the trip so enjoyable. There was so much to learn about from the people, nature, food, and garden. I had two fantastic roommates and got a mosquito net for my bed. We had our own shared bathroom. I sauna/cold plunged almost every day and you could drive out to town/beach with the staff car. The staff kitchen was stocked with vegan food, amazing bread, and juices from the program. The work was fair and I worked in the juice kitchen each day.

This place is amazing! Solid 99% The hosts are welcoming and very friendly (Richard, Karen, Chris, Ed, Debby, Ivan). They're compromised with spirituality, healthy nutrition, and well-being. So, you will learn a lot and have a great time. You can join the Yoga and meditation classes, also use the pool and sauna, and use the staff car to visit beautiful beaches near Lagos. The tasks are easy and it helps a lot they are well explained and distributed every week. Lastly, The volunteers I encountered were phenomenal people! Thank you so much for this experience.

A beautiful place with lovely, interesting people. The work was fair and varied (loved making juices!) and tasks were communicated clearly :) You'll have lots of time for connecting with nature and yourself. If you're curious, you can learn a lot about conscious living, holistic wellbeing and practices. This month taught me a lot about myself and I'll carry many insights and experiences with me for life. Thank you for having me!
