Amazing. I have no words to describe how much I loved the weeks I spent there. Erna is kind, calm, flexible, wise. I could learn about the country, the food, the nature. I could relax, see a lot of different animals, amazing landscapes, she helped me and taught me so much. It was exactly what I needed, chiil, relax and disconnect. Erna and her husband and the kids Iqbal and Alia are amazing, fun and reliable. The internet and power are unstable sometimes because of the rain, but I will be back again asap because I feel like I have an Indonesian family now. Terima kasih, Erna, see you soon! <3

Erna is the sweetest host. Since he beginning she was really flexible, the tasks are fun and I didn't feel that I was working, but learning and playing - with her the guests, the kids. The internet is down sometimes but this is not her fault, so I had to reschedule some classes with my students. I am still here and I absolutely recomend it, it was my best experience so far! I feel like I am part of the family already 🌺😌🙏

I had a great time staying with Erna! She is a fun, friendly, and amazing host who made the experience really enjoyable. I learned a lot during my stay and felt very welcome. I also had the chance to join the jungle tour, which was a wonderful experience and one of the highlights of my trip. I highly recommend staying here!
