Anand Nagarajan, Pune, MH.

"I think the things I enjoyed the most while studying with Azlan were: a simple to understand structured course, with fun way of learning. He even gave me a great opportunity at his farm to learn permaculture by doing it practically instead of only theory. Now I have a lot of confidence to buy a land and do permaculture myself."

Aavpreet Kaur, Dehradun, UK.

"One cannot simply master permaculture in a lifetime, let alone a month, and therefore Azlan made sure I understood the very basic fundamentals of leading a life in the permaculture ways, not only in theory but practically as well. With Azlan, there wasn’t a single moment of the day you don’t learn something new, and the best part is that he so passionately talks about his subjects and is so open to learning and growing his knowledge base along with you."

Chloé Estandía, Cantabria, Spain.

"This experience was amazing. Azlan has tremendous knowledge. He really knows how to transmit and share the information so everyone can understand and have fun while learning. I was afraid the time difference could be a problem in order to follow up, but Azlan was always ready to stand up and answer all my questions. Truly recommended. Can't wait to get to learn more from him!"
