⚠️ Requirements

Motivation letter required. Enthusiasm for conservation and the outdoors preferable

ℹ️ Additional information

Volunteers will be involved on the local culture, so there are several activities planned: cultural tours, visits to natural sites, participation on village festivals, intercultural meals with the residents, etc. Yes, it is close to Barcelona, but please don't apply if it only makes you think about sangria, beach and discoballs! Volunteering is a serious commitment and it needs to be taken as such.
