Had a fun time, the work is super managebale either housekeeping, kitchen hand, or general duties. The vege food is delicious and the fridge is usually always full. The train station is a 10min walk away and easy to explore other nearby towns, hikes, or go climbing. The team consist of a lot of longer term volunteers and can be slightly closed off. Most people were nice just not necesarilly willing to form longlasting relationships (understandable to short termies). There were a couple people that were disrestpectful and it was mentioned to the volunteer manager and she listened and took notes

The Center has been a wonderful place to live and work! The other volunteers have been so welcoming as have been the retreat guests. The location is incredible for hiking around the Blue Mountains and exploring the area. The team is so collaborative that the work is fair and evenly balanced. I would recommend to anyone :)

The Center was everything I expected and more. All the other volunteers were super welcoming and I felt right at home. The tasks included housekeeping and kitchen help, and eveything was completely reasonable especially compared to the delicious food and cosy accomodation you get in return. During time off you can join the yoga classes and there are endless hikes to do in the area. I would definitely recommend this volunteering experience!
