Selamat datang! (Welcome)
"Ananda Asitima is a non profit spiritual & ecological centre set in an organic vegetable farm in north west Malaysia. We welcome volunteers to help us develop our project and join in our daily practice of yoga & meditation. In addition to serving the local community we offer yoga, meditation, holistic health and self help retreats."

At the moment there are nine volunteers here comprising tw young women from Malaysia (one Chinese one Hindu) a young couple .. she is Spanish he is Scottish ..  a middle aged Australian woman ...  a middle aged Scottish woman and a young German couple of Turkish origin and the manager is a middle aged woman originally from Hungary ... English is the common language but needless to say there are a lot of different accents . We all have to cook (vegetarian) so the daily diet is very varied and everyone is expected to work the first hour of every day in the organic vegetable gardens .. and then I am repairing problems on the volunteers housing and extending a veranda roof.
