Volunteer experience
Our workdays are from Tuesday to Sunday. Monday is the day-off.
We start our day at 6:30 AM. Throughout the day, depending on the schedule, we work in the garden, do office work, do housework, or teach classes from 8 AM - 10 AM and 2 PM - 4PM. We will cook together when mealtimes come. Sometimes we simply hang out and eat out together. We then end our day at 9:30 PM.
If you stay less than 6 months, the fee is 6,000,000 VND per month (200,000 VND per day) per person. Depending on your ability, additional fees may apply.
If you stay more than 6 months, food and accommodation are free. However, we require a commitment fee of 5,000,000 VND per person. If you complete your committed stay, the fee will be refunded.
*If you leave earlier than your commitment for any reason, the fee will not be refunded.
Approximate conversion to euros (may vary by exchange rate):
6,000,000 VND ≈ €220–€230/month
200,000 VND ≈ €7–€8/day
5,000,000 VND ≈ €185–€195 (refundable deposit)
We can host 4-6 volunteers at a time. Volunteers will share a room with other friendly, English-speaking volunteers and Nui Tuong members (females and males stay in separate rooms). Each volunteer has their own bed with blankets, pillows, sheets, and mosquito nets.
The toilets are shared and kept clean all the time. Please check the link here for accommodation photos.
