Our two week stay with Carol was a fantastic experience! The work was varied, fun, and Carol was great at teaching us lots about gardening practices in Bulgaria. We had the most delicious meals everyday - Carol makes the most amazing soups, as well as one of the best goat curries ever. Mungo, the dog, was an absolute joy to be around - bring your running shoes and take him for a run down to the local snack bar like I did. The accommodation is perfect for volunteers, and made the experience so easy and stress-free. Thanks so much, Carol, we really hope we bump into each other again soon 🙂🇧🇬.

We had the best time at Carol's! She made us feel welcome even before we arrived. The work was varied, and we learnt lots of new gardening skills. Carol made delicious meals which we all looked forward to during the day. She also gave us good recommendations for what to do on our days off. We would highly recommend volunteering at Carol's! Thank you so much Carol

Put in words what I experienced here it's almost impossible. Carol is such a lovely and welcoming human being. She taught me not only a lot about farming, but also about life experience. These 3 weeks living immersed in nature would be unforgettable
