Nestled at the foot of Mount Semeru, near Senduro in Lumajang, this ecovolunteer program invites you to experience authentic village life while helping preserve nature. You’ll stay in a welcoming community surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, hidden waterfalls, and a strong spirit of togetherness. Through simple but meaningful actions, like keeping trails clean, supporting eco-campaigns, and sharing ideas, you’ll contribute to protecting the environment while exchanging culture and learning sustainable ways of living.


Activities & Shift

Volunteers usually contribute 4–5 hours a day, 5 days a week, leaving plenty of time to explore and rest. Your activities may include:
• Helping maintain and clean natural spots such as waterfalls and village paths.
• Supporting eco-awareness workshops and community campaigns.
• Assisting with creative projects or visual materials for sustainability.
• Joining cultural activities, ceremonies, or village gatherings to immerse yourself in local life.
Every task is designed to be impactful yet flexible, giving you space to enjoy the balance of volunteering, cultural exchange, and nature escape.


Rules

To create a respectful and enriching environment, we ask volunteers to:
• Embrace local culture, dress modestly in public, and respect community traditions.
• Keep communal spaces and nature areas clean.
• Stay open-minded, curious, and engaged with the community.
• Take initiative, communicate openly, and support one another.
