About the project

LAND OF PEACE

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Community of Krishna consciousness, a place far from urban life, where some families and devoted people live in a peaceful and quiet environment. They created their own religious and everyday lifestyle with gardens and shared community work. The community organizes a religious international camp every year, but in the last years it became clear that they need help from outside the community to prepare for this event. This will be the second year that the community host a workcamp. For more impression about the life of the community, check out the videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onGtznWpz9I , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCEaBfNC-d8

💼 What the programme involves

The workcamp is based on helping the community prepare for the international camp they are organizing, meaning cleaning, gardening, painting the benches; prepare the kitchen for hosting the food for the participants of the camp. Seasonal tasks, like making jam or compote from the fruits of the garden.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The accommodation is going to be the host house of the community with all basic needs (beds, showers, toilettes). There is no internet in the guesthouse of the community. The Indian- Hungarian vegan and vegetarian food is going to be prepared by us, the volunteers and cooked in the kitchen with the leadership of a national volunteer, who is going to be the cook of our workcamp.

📍 About the location

The location is the park of the temple, and the area around it. It takes place in the countryside, the nearest village is 4-5 km away. Nice, calm and quiet place. Leisure activities may include the common programs with the volunteers, such as morning yoga, art meditation workshops or bathing in the lakes nearby. The volunteers might also have the chance to get to know the community and their hobbies, they can help in making soaps from goat milk or learn some delicious recipes in the kitchen.
