It was quite a good experience volunteering in the lodge Talim. Miss Kim is full of wisdom, and I loved the mission she has for this project. Miss Tan was a very nice and welcoming host, as well as other staff they were very sweet and kind. My tasks were mostly helping in the kitchen with Kaka during the weekends when the guests were coming in( guests are in groups). Other tasks were walking Sakura (dog), feeding the rabbit, housekeeping and cutting fabrics. I recommend this volunteer experience to be in pairs or groups, as it gets lonely at times. Overall, this experience teaches me a lot.

The time I spent here at Dural Tailim will certainly a memory that I will cherish for the rest of my life. I'm very grateful to Ms. Kim and Ms. Tan for everything they're taught me throughout my stay. The work was simple but enjoyable. Mostly cleaning and housekeeping around the property. The activities they hosted were very educational and fun! I particular enjoyed the ink painting and calligraphy classes. Dural the lodge is quite close to Kuala Lumpur by car, so it's a great place to stay if you'd like to expience the quite life during the week and explore the city on your days off.

The lodge is a great place to connect with nature but also explore the city as it is not far away, it has been a great experience as I knew a lot about The culture and traditions. Mrs. Kim and Miss Tan are wonderful hosts always teaching us something new, showing us the culture, having deep talks about life and always attentive to our well-being. The tasks are very simple and all the people who work here are very friendly, the food always very delicious. Thank you all so much for making this experience one of the best! I hope we can see you in the future. My best wis
