I had such a lovely time at Jonas and Raluca’s farm. The animals were angels on earth, the scenery was beautiful, and the food was delicious. Jonas and Raluca are wonderful hardworking people, and I feel so lucky to have gotten the opportunity to volunteer on their farm. I will miss Petrinzel- it felt like a fairytale.

I really enjoyed my stay at Ginia's and Ghita's home. There are so warm and generous people! I spent most of my time with Ginia, and even if we can't talk the same language and she was busy, she took time to show me things on the farm as much as she can. I did a lots of cooking (Ginia is an incredible cook), but also harvesting vegetables, feeding animals and collecting the eggs daily. I often had calls with their daughter which was pleasent for make sure we understood each other with Ginia. The place is very peaceful and full of animals for my great pleasure! To sleep in winter, you can have your own room which is very comfortable. Thanks again for my stay, it's such good memories to me :)

The Advent Center at Berevoi is special. Oozing with compassion, reflection, and dedication, it's a great place to be if you're seeking catalysis for growth or change in life. Or, otherwise, it's a great place to be - to just be. Rob is a real furnace of ambition, which is a wonder to behold (and get caught up in), so there is never a dull day under the watch of the Carpathians. He maintains a healthy, encouraging attitude, spurring activity and conversation, challenging views and beliefs and asking the questions that force a deep dive to discover the answer. Above all though, he is incredibly kind and attentive and has a great sense of humour; a most gracious host. There is a strong spiritual undercurrent at the Advent Center which, though drew me and is insisting on my coming back for more, may not be everyone's cup of tea. As it is the budding community's backbone I'd suggest anyone considering a visit to weigh up their values and intentions before arriving. If there is even slight alignment or willingness to remain open and curious, as in my experience, the resonance will ring out over the river and through the mountains like a clear bell. Yet even putting all of the above aside, the food is colourful and made with love, the air is fresh, stream clear, beds warm, wifi fast, and people happy—what more is there to want? Thank you Rob and friends, see you all again soon.

Doru was kind and welcoming and you could sense that he really loved the region and knew it well. Always opened to share his experience and also his recommendations to what yo do or where to go. It was a very nice stay and would for sure recommend it. Plus Predeal is a very nice town with nice hikes and also close to other cities like Bușteni or Sinaia where you can do some nice hikes too (and of course close to Brașov), with lots of trains going to all this places.

We enjoyed our time on the farm. The family welcomed us warmly. We helped with preserving food for the winter. The bread, cheese, and fresh milk from the farm are excellent. We’re happy to recommend this place.
