This was my first volunteering experience with Worldpackers. I really enjoyed it, and Ziga was always very welcoming and flexible. I was only there for five days, but it was a wonderful experience. Time seemed to pass more slowly; it's the perfect experience for anyone who wants to immerse themselves in nature, take a break and learn new things. Thank you so much, Ziga – I wish you all the best with your project.

I spent a bit more than a month at Žiga's place and I can wholeheartedly say that I greatly liked it.
Žiga is a caring, thoughtful and even-tempered person and made living with him about as easy as it could be. While I appreciate his more easy-going approach to handling volunteers and their work, I found myself missing a bit of leadership role for the project at times. That is of course just a personal preference.
The land and the way of life calmed me down increadibly, and I have to admit that I do really miss being there.
Thank you so much for everything Žiga! I hope to return someday :)

I spent only a week at Žiga's place but really enjoyed it ! Living in nature feels so good. And he created a unique place where you feel very welcomed. Žiga set up an atmosphere where initiative and creativity are encouraged. It is so refreshing to have the space to learn by trying and experiencing your ideas. Thanks to him it felt okay and safe to do so. He also has very good advices ! And the nights by the fire were so cool ! Thank you for that experience

A beautiful place surrounded by nature, silence, and a completely different rhythm of life.Ziga has created something special here. It reminds you that freedom is not about having everything around you, but about being comfortable with what you have.

I did amazing experience from Ziga house and I learned a lot. In the past, I was only person just spent whole time on my desk. But in this place, I learned how to be more closed to nature, how can keep the sustainable life, how can we make natural life. Also, building with natural stuffs, so interesting. In here, there aren't some modern things (it means natural ways) but we can see the life with another sight, have more communications with people, more happy than the city. When the time finished in this place, u will get amazing things. I am really appreciate these beautiful experiences!

Žiga is a lovely host who went above and beyond to make every day an interesting and memorable experience. The tasks were well explained and often physically demanding, but always followed by laughter and great conversations. He patiently taught us many new skills and encouraged us to be creative. Living off-grid helped me connect more deeply with nature, slow down, and appreciate the simple things. I can't wait to come back! 🌿

I spent two amazing weeks at Žiga's place. I loved slowing down a bit and living more intentionally. The tasks were varied and everything was explained clearly. I got to try lots of new things and I think I've learned a lot. In my free time I really enjoyed climbing trees, carving spoons and hanging out with the other volunteers. We shared meals together, listened to lots of music, and most evenings we would spend around a fire. We laughed a lot together and I'll miss the people I got to meet there. I wish I could have stayed longer.
