I had great time in the Center. The house is next to a river, surrounded by mountains. There I Met with wonderful people, had a great volunteering team. We self organised our tasks, brought system and schedule. Enjoyed cooking for the guests and volunteers. Joined beautiful activities as hikes and ceremonies. Sometimes the time of the activities changed last minute but overall it was a great experience, loved my stay

I had a beautiful volunteer experience at Maska Mistic the Center in the Center. I stayed for one week and really enjoyed the closeness with nature and the rituals, which made the experience very special and meaningful. I also loved meeting other volunteers and guests from all over the world, which made the experience even richer. Through the daily activities and cultural exchange I learned a lot. Maga and Leo were very kind and easy to communicate with, and everyone made me feel welcome. Even though the place is a little far, it was a peaceful experience that I truly enjoyed.

I feel so lucky starting my first volunteering experience from the Center! The vibe here is flowing and inclusive — everyone is so kind and genuinely contributes their energy to the community. We shared meals, held hands in prayer, and spent evenings by the fire under the stars, exchanging songs and poems. I felt a beautiful sense of belonging that is hard to put into words. Neo's parents are also amazing — they welcomed me warmly, introduced me to traditional Peruvian clothing, and took me to experience truly local celebrations.

My experience at the Center was a rollercoaster of experiences, emotions, thoughts and love. The idea and concept of the Center is one eye found very beautiful and held dear to my heart. This isn't just a hostel, hotel or place to crash for a night. It's a home away from home, a community, a family, a the Center. the Center is somewhere eye have learned to call a home and feel that sense of belonging even when surrounded by strangers. Experiencing a range of folk from all over the world it's beautiful how many of us find comfort and safety in one another. My time as a volunteer shifted a bit and eye loved it.

This is a loving family, and here I've experienced what collective community life feels like. Everyone takes on their own role, helping the community function better. Since this is a young and newly born community, everything is still gradually improving. It feels like watching a child being nurtured and growing up, and I believe it will only get better and better. I'm grateful for this beautiful experience! Cheers to my family!

My time at the Center was shorter than expected. I came with different expectations, and in the end it just wasn't the right fit for me. Tasks and responsibilities could be communicated more clearly, and open conversations about it aren't always easy to have. Sharing feedback is not always well received, which makes it difficult to grow together as a team. I personally found the “work more, talk less” approach a bit at odds with the community's idea of being open and family-like. It's a beautiful place tho, guests may enjoy their stay, but for volunteers it depends on what you're looking for

Thank you, Kim, for sharing your perspective. We understand that every volunteer has different expectations, and sometimes a project simply isn’t the right match. At our community we value clear communication, initiative, and a positive, collaborative spirit that’s what helps the community grow and flow together.
We appreciate your contribution during your stay and wish you the best in finding a place that resonates more with your personal rhythm and vision. Safe travels ahead

My experience was good in this space because I connected very well with nature in the deepest part of my senses, I had the opportunity to be with myself, think a lot, and put my ideas in order. I highly recommend this place if you want to find a bit of yourself since you're here. It was a good experience overall.

My experience at the center was beautiful, I connected a lot with the people, I could participate in ceremonies, I visited many places in the center. There are a few things that could be improved in terms of organization and infrastructure, but working as a community it's possible

It was a very beautiful experience! I learned a lot and really enjoyed the views and the activities. The place is super welcoming and I had a very good group. The volunteers' activities are simple and focus more on maintaining the house. I thank them for welcoming me and for being so considerate always 🫂
