A beautiful opportunity to get to know more of the local culture and see a part of Bali that you are not gonna find in the cities. Wayan and his wife received me with care and kindness. The food was great and I was lucky to be able to join two cerimonies in their family Temple. The kids are lovely, playful and kind. Would definetly recommend this experience. Ps: would recommend learning at least a little of Indonesian before arriving at the school; the kids speak very very basic english and it's hard to communicate most of the times. I'm really happy and grateful with what I lived here.

Hi Fernanda, Thank you for such a beautiful review! It was a joy to have you stay with us, share our food, and celebrate at our family temple. The kids loved spending time with you as well, and we completely agree with your great tip about learning some basic Indonesian before visiting the school. Thank you for being such a wonderful guest, we hope to see you again in Bali!

I spent three weeks with the school and her family, and it was the most beautiful experience of my life. the school is an amazing person. She taught me so much and made me feel at home from the very beginning. The children at the school are all so sweet, and the teachers welcomed me warmly from day one. To me, this is home. Here, I found my second family🙏🏻

Dear Camilla,
I wanted to reach out to you personally to say a massive thank you for the wonderful time you spent with us at SD Negeri 2 Jungutan.
Seeing the children so excited and happy to learn English with you was truly special. You didn't just teach them a new language; you showed them genuine kindness, brought so much joy into their days, and opened their eyes to a wider world. Your warmth, patience, and bright energy made every single lesson memorable for them.

I can honestly say this homestay with the school and his family has been a transformative experience. Everyone was lovely and welcoming. The food was delicious, the room was comfortable and clean, I always felt safe. There is good communication and the children are super sweet. If you want to experience local Balinese culture and authentic style of living this is an unbeatable experience. As a solo woman it was very important to me that everyone was so welcoming and kind. I couldn't recommend this experience more! Please consider this homestay, the children are so grateful and need the help!

The children are kind, respectful, and eager to learn and you have the freedom to plan and teach the classes your way, which makes the experience very rewarding. the school and her family make you feel at home, taking care of every detail. Their dog Chiqui is affectionate and keeps you company at all times. The meals are very delicious and they make sure to prepare them every day, and they also suggest activities like trekking, visiting beaches, or temples. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to fully enjoy volunteering, feel like part of the family and get to know the local culture.

I had a wonderful experience with this volunteer program and felt truly welcome from the first day. Living with the host felt like being part of a family — Wayan and his wife were incredibly kind and generous, and their children were absolutely lovely. Volunteering at the school was very rewarding: the children were eager to learn and well-behaved, and the teachers welcomed me warmly into their team. I felt appreciated and comfortable throughout my stay and would highly recommend this program to anyone looking for a meaningful and positive volunteer experience.
THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!❤️❤️

I spent two amazing weeks with Wayan and his wonderful family, and i truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, Wayan made me feel like part of the family - he's not just a host, he became a brother for me. Teaching english to the children was an absolute joy. The kids are full of energy, always smiling and genuinely eager to learn. During my free time, i had the chance to enjoy many special moments with Wayan and his family. This was more than just volunteering, it was a truly special life experience, i will carry in my heart forever.

The experience of this volunteering has been wonderful and enriching, as well as a great opportunity to get to know Balinese culture and locals. At school the atmosphere is great and at all times I received very good treatment, both from the teachers and from the children. As for the host the school, he is a wonderful person who has been super attentive at all times and I have felt like I was at home. He has a lovely family who have also made this experience unique, pleasant and unforgettable. Without a doubt, a piece of my heart has remained there

I had the opportunity to be volunteer at the school's elementary school with my friend Ines. The children were extremely interested in learning and improving their English and participated in all the exercises, even though they were a little shy at first. Normally, classes are from 9 to 11, and then you can play with them. The second week, we also taught at junior school classes. the school made us feel like part of his family! He also told us about life in Indonesia and took us to see Bali's largest temple, Besakih, and offered us a trip to Mount Agung, but the weather wasn't good when we could
