I had an incredible two weeks at the coffee plantation. I felt truly welcomed by the team. Besides the work, I was able to learn a lot about the history of Blitar and its culture. The work itself was very well organized, which made everything run smoothly, and I enjoyed spending most of my time in the café with a great team! I would recommend this to anyone looking for work in a relaxed environment, with beautiful surroundings that are perfect for walking around. It's located a bit outside the city, which makes it peaceful.

I absolutely loved my time spent in the host. Wima and his family are absolutely lovely, the team in plantation is very friendly and welcoming. I think it was the perfect blend between immersing into a local culture, learning more about coffee, interacting with customers, spending time with the family, meeting other volunteers as well and being in the nature. Actually, the plantation is very well taken care of. I will miss my the host family. Hope to see you again soon. ❤️

I had a really great time working at the coffee plantation. The work itself was totally manageable and it left us plenty of free time. The city center is quite far from the plantation so it's not that easy to get there but you can call a grab anytime. The working hours were respected and if you had any questions you could always talk to Andrei or Mr Wima. Overall I really enjoyed my time there and can recommend it!

This was my 4th volunteering experience and by far the one where I felt the most respected and welcomed. Everything is well organized, thanks to Mr. Wima and Andrey! The food is incredibly good and vegetarian. The tasks are easy and they expect us to act as volunteers and not as staff, which was appreciated. Living conditions are good, but you have to be prepared to have lots of ants, which is normal in this region. The plantation is a bit remote, so it can be difficult to get around. Overall, I'm very grateful: it's the perfect experience to learn more about coffee and real Javanese culture!

I had an absolutely amazing experience volunteering at the host Koffie Plantation! The tasks were straightforward, my roles were mainly serving in the cafe and doing simple outdoor tasks. They make sure each volunteer gets an education on the coffee process and genuinely want you to experience as much as possible. The care that the hosts (and everyone who works here) put into making sure I had a good experience was very greatly appreciated!Their main priority is positive cultural exchange and I feel very grateful to have had this opportunity :) hope to be back one day

It will be hard to top my stay at the host plantation for my future volunteering experiences. Everyone was so welcoming and kind, it felt like you were part of one big family. Mr Wima took us around to eat local food and visit some famous places in Blitar, I am so grateful to have been able to discover local culture like that. The work itself was very pleasant, during the rainy season it's mostly working at the cafe. Delicious meals were provided during work days.

I had the very best time at the host koffieplantation! The people feel like family and I can't wait to hopefully come back one day. I made friends with locals as well as other volunteers, who I'm still travelling with today. The tasks were fun and I learned a lot about coffee and the indonesian culture. I would highly recommend this place to anyone (volunteering or not), because of the peaceful environment and beautiful cafe, plantation and area.
