It's been my third time in the Center and things have been great as always! I'm so happy that I could meet my friends (and new ones!) again and that I could take part in the Christmas and New years party. It was so fun! Much love for everyone! Until the next time!

My experience was amazing & unique! From the moments we could learn and share experiences with the local people, the daily activities and all the contacts we can make with guests and other work visitors, to the peaceful place, very delicious and healthy meals. The time of the sheets are well planned and allow us to have a good time with the projects and with outside experiences. The activities can be hard sometimes for some people, they make the best to find a good opportunity for each one to help respecting their limits and abilities. Already missing this wonderful place and people I met!

If you wanna learn about Buddhism or living in community it is the right place. It was possible to take part at the events. Working hours was always respected and organised well. The people tend to be kind and lovely and always attentive to questions or for a nice conversation. The place is surrounded by nature and the building is very beautifully designed.
