O programa de voluntariado: a troca de trabalho com a fundação foi uma ótima oportunidade para compartilhar conhecimento com o estilo de vida local das comunidades rurais de Wayanad e também promover a sustentabilidade e um estilo de vida minimalista por meio das diferentes atividades que realizamos juntos. Foquei meu trabalho voluntário em apoiar a colheita e o processamento de produtos agrícolas, levando em conta minha experiência como chef. Trabalhamos com culturas orgânicas de açafrão-da-terra, chá (Camellia sinensis), cacau, capim-limão, tulsi, pimenta e cardamomo, do solo ao produto final. Experiência enriquecedora.

Laiju and Namitha are wonderful people. They made us feel completely welcome. Laiju is a great communicator, and has an interest in all subjects, we talked for many hours on everything from sustainability to politics. Namitha's cooking was amazing, and I enjoyed all the traditional dishes she made! Laiju has a worldwide vision of a sustainability network, and also contributes locally within the rural community.

My husband Dan, and I, stayed at the organization for 3 weeks, with Laiju and Namitha. They were both very welcoming, and Namitha cooked wonderful Keralan food. During our time at the organization we learned about their social responsibility and sustainability projects, and became involved in rewriting content for the website, decisions on renovation for a local Anganwadi (kindergarten), monitoring the infrastructure for the new Permanent RHM Centre, visiting the organization Farm, experimental cooking in the volunteers' kitchen (pot luck with Laiju and Namitha each evening), a yoga course, and exploring the local area.

The organization is an interesting project with lots of potential to learn about sustainability. Laiju and his wife are incredible human beings, they treated me like part of the family. I was able to have my own room, good talks and delicious meals. Unfortunately I decided to leave the place earlier because the tasks were not as clear, I ended up doing more marketing content on my computer rather than learning about permaculture. We tried to discuss but I felt that things were not on alignment. If you decide to apply go with no expectations and communicate what you would like to learn. Namaste

Foi realmente um prazer conhecer o Sri Nhat. Ele está em um caminho que poucos seguem. Suas vibrações criaram um impacto positivo, e tanto eu quanto Namitha aproveitamos a presença dele e a forma como se comunica. Temos muitas oportunidades disponíveis na TGG Foundation, e elas mudam de tempos em tempos de acordo com o clima. Geralmente, a maioria das atividades de agricultura natural começa em novembro, assim que as chuvas passam, e continua até janeiro. Além disso, eu passo tempo com cada participante assim que eles chegam para entender como desejam contribuir com seu tempo; com base nisso, as atividades são criadas. Como bem disse, as expectativas sempre são motivo de preocupação, portanto todos que nos visitam devem entrar sem expectativas, com a intenção de contribuir com seu tempo para um propósito maior e para o benefício de todos. Caso contrário, o propósito de ser voluntário fica frustrado.

Volunteering at the organization has been one of the most significant experiences of my life so far, for several reasons: it took me out from my comfort zone in a very unique way (and this made me grow), I met grounded and wise human beings (and we had beautiful conversations), I got close to nature like never before, I started exploring new academic branches of interest, and I was given the space to be myself. Would definitely recommend. Thanks the organization!

Laiju and Namita were like family. From day one we connected like as if we started from where we left off. We always worked as a team to see what best could be done for future projects in mind. We cared, we laughed, we shared some beautiful moments, we comforted each other. They always took me along everywhere they went, and I so enjoyed being a part of their life for 17 days. More than anything, “We were one!”

This is very much a place that gives you the space and freedom to decide what kind of experience you wish to have. Both the farm and center are quiet and beautiful and the food is really wonderful. Everyone is kind and there is no pressure to rush about at all. The vision of the foundation allows you to contribute through creative ways or simply learn from the surroundings there.
