I had an amazing experience, ziera and sukma are amazing and very helpful they have very good English and run the classes. The classes are only 3 times a week and a very easy it's more about just hanging out with the kids and having conversations. the kids are so cute and it's so fun to play with them. Definitely would love to go back and visit as everyone is so friendly and welcoming, definitely recommend.

This eco-homestay is running by two beautiful souls Ziera&Sukma. They're very welcoming and we really liked to spent time with them. The tasks are very chilled. Teaching English to 10-15 kids 3x a week for 1 hour. Followed by a volleyball afternoon session. Also helping a little bit in the kitchen and garden. We bought a little bit of food by ourselves and we were sharing everything together with the hosts and their available goods from the kitchen. Some nights we cooked together, some meals we prepared ourselves . I really loved every second of my stay. Can't express myself! 🫶🏼

The eco village it's nice, they teach the kids for free, they try to create opportunities for them and they really care about the plastic problem! I could help to other volunteers saying this, the kids knows basic English so it's kind of hard to teach them, you should find a way to cross this barrier of the language however. Ziera it's an amazing, lovely and clever girl, she really have a good heart and it's always ready to take care and teach the kids. The most important thing it's to help her, cause she is the one in charge, and the only one who knows both languages!
