Aro Ha Adventures: Volunteering Tales

Hey there, wellness wanderers!

Today, I'm thrilled to share my exhilarating experience volunteering at Aro Ha. From whipping up beautiful plant-based creations in the kitchen to ensuring spotless sanctuaries in housekeeping and even getting my hands dirty in the enchanting gardens, each moment was a whirlwind of learning and growth.

In the kitchen, I danced among pots and pans, learning to help craft gorgeous plant-based meals, drinks, and snacks that nourish the body, mind and soul. Every chop, stir, and sizzle felt like a symphony of flavors, a celebration of wholesome goodness.

Housekeeping was a lesson in precision and care, as I was taught to meticulously tend to every nook and cranny, ensuring that guest rooms were impeccable havens of tranquility. Creating spaces where guests could rest, recharge, and immerse themselves fully in the Aro Ha experience was a joy.

But it was in the gardens where magic truly bloomed. Surrounded by breathtaking mountain vistas, I delved into the world of food forests, learning the art of proper harvesting and cultivation. From sowing microgreens and plating garlic to cracking open almonds and hazelnuts, every step was infused with a sense of wonder and reverence for nature's abundance.

Through these diverse experiences, I gained a newfound appreciation for the dedicated teams at Aro Ha, whose passion and expertise are the driving force behind this extraordinary retreat. Their commitment to excellence and unwavering dedication to creating a transformative guest experience left me in awe.

I will treasure the memories, newfound knowledge, and deep respect for the incredible individuals who make this haven of well-being possible.

Plus the most fun thing! I was both shocked and deeply honored to be asked to sub a yoga class during the retreat. What an amazing experience and dream come true!!

Stay tuned for more adventures and insights from my journey at Aro Ha!
