The Experience

Hey! After more than 10 years in engineering and busy city life, I decided to slow things way down and move closer to nature. Now I live simply, surrounded by trees, fresh air, and a nearby waterfall. Life here is all about slow living—growing food, working with my hands, and enjoying the little things. I love sharing this place with open-minded travelers and volunteers who want something different from the usual tourist experience.

I had a truly special experience here :) The place is surrounded by nature and peaceful, the atmosphere is authentic and really allows you to disconnect from the busy world. Amir is kind and welcoming: I felt at home from the very beginning! The work is fair and well balanced, with plenty of time to rest and enjoy the surroundings. I also had the opportunity to meet local people and immerse myself in the culture, which made the experience even more meaningful. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for nature and cultural exchange (and loads of beautiful cats 🥹)

My time in Amir's the camping was great! Amir is a very nice host and gave us the chance to dive into malay culture. We met his friends, neighbours and family to celebrate the end of Ramadan together, which was truly a unique experience! Work was not heavy, mostly about cleaning the facilities and garden and feeding the animals. The area is very beautiful and Amir has lots of cute cats for anyone who likes animals :) I can definetly recommend doing this project.

Staying with Amir at his camp was an amazing experience. He is very welcoming and a chill person to be around. His place is a great way to spend time in nature. He will show you around his village, introduce you to his community and takes you to the local warung and karaoke nights!! We would also cook and eat together, which was really nice! The work was definitely doable and relaxed scheduled with some woodwork, feeding the fish, cleaning up, prepping the pond and painting. We would totally come back and it's a big recommendation to other volunteers to go to Amir's place :)

I had a brilliant stay with Amir. He welcomed us into his home and also his life in the village. I enjoyed experiencing this, the food, the people, and the jungle treks! There are a lot of tasks around Amirs property and in his land in the jungle, we built a concrete wall as well as moving some wood around. Daily tasks involve feeding the fish and cats, and whatever needs doing around the property.You can expect lots of adventure, local experiences, cuddles with his cats, and time in nature. I had a wonderful week:)
