The experience was good and I really enjoyed when we went to waterfalls, Indian wedding. the farm is a cool guy. There were not many tasks to choose from, only one - working with chicken. Sometimes electricity was off together with the Internet. The place is nice, beautiful nature, berries and monkeys. Thank you everyone for the experience!

It was a good experience. The family took us to waterfalls, Indian wedding. The food was traditional but we could also cook for ourselves with provided ingredients. The light/wifi wasn't stable, but the farm gave us hotspot when he was home. There aren't any shops/delivery services near, but the farm can take you to local market by bike. At home you can see wild monkeys:) We were their first volunteers, so I think with time the farm can practice his task distribution and general communication skills even more:)
Thank you Suman, the farm and family!
