ON THE WAY OF ENCOUNTRES

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

This workcamp is a collective experience, in which the main objective is to create a link with the people of the municipality through meetings and community work. It is a great opportunity to live differently, to share and meet new people in a supportive, cooperative and altruistic way. The inhabitants are ready to welcome you in their town.

💼 What the programme involves

Dry stone walls renovation in the magnificent Madona monument, surrounded by nature. It is a very important place for locals and for travelers, due to its original way of being erected and its beauty. You will learn traditional masonry as well as work in a diverse team. You will also participate in daily tasks with the other volunteers (cooking, cleaning, activities ...).

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be accommodated in the municipal hall with camp beds. For food and various activities you could use the premises of the football stadium (communal meals, parties and meetings with the population) also you will have other alternatives; camping style outdoor cooking and dry toilets. In general, showers will be taken in residents' homes. Also a shower is present in the stadium but it will be used as an exception. To create a link with the inhabitants, the center of Beaumotte offers you to organize meals with them, allowing you to share special moments with them while discovering the local gastronomic specialties. Either they will invite 2 people in the evenings and in turns to diner. Accompanied by the animators and the others volunteers, you will make your own menus and you will prepare the meals.

📍 About the location
