I had a great time! The host and his family are very nice. I gave english lessons to the kids of the village, which was a fun experience. Otherwise we had a lot of time to explore the island. The food was very good, also for vegetarians :) Would recommend.

Toris and his friends and family are all very kind and welcoming. I spent my two week stay surfing, exploring the beautiful island, and eating the delicious food. The work is very manageable and is a very small time commitment. I highly recommend staying here and hope to come back some day!

Our experience volunteering at the inn has been amazing. Toris and his family are very welcoming and warm, it felt like home. We had to take two planes to get to Nias, but once there we didn't have much expenses. If you are looking for a place to rest whilst getting to know the local life, this is the perfect volunteer experience
