🏠 Accommodation on site

You and your colleagues will be accommodated in apartments equipped with bathroom, kitchen, and 2 bedrooms. At the beginning of each month you’ll receive a food allowance, adequate to buy and cook on your own according with life’s cost in Bulgaria. Furthermore, around 124 euros per month are given as pocket money for your personal expenses. The travel from Italy to Bulgaria and back is fully reimbursed. Your worktime will be around 36 hours per week, usually from Monday to Friday. An insurance coverage against all risks is provided by the program.

🎒 Leisure activities

You will attend some official training sessions: a pre-departure training before leaving Italy, an on-arrival training in a few weeks after your advent in Bulgaria, and a mid-term training if your volunteering period lasts more the six months. More internal meetings and trainings will be held by the hosting organization, also to share concerns, problems, expectations, results, successes and joys of your volunteering. In a general sense, you’ll acquire knowledge, skills and competencies about non-formal education. A Bulgarian language course will be organized for you and the other volunteers.

At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
