📍 About the location
Normally there are 2 days off per week. You are free those days and have possibilities to plan a group trip to the mountains or to the nearest towns and cities. Campleader can help you with the organization and options.
In a workcamp we also dedicate some time to a study part. It is an activity of non-formal learning, where you can gain new knowledge or form new opinions on different problems; all this is done in a relaxed, entertaining or amusing way.
The intercultural evening is a good way of intercultural learning. There is one evening, when all participants present their country in a relaxed way – making presentation, watching photos, telling stories, tasting typical dishes, drinks and sweets, dances etc. Please, have this evening in your mind while preparing your luggage to share a piece of your culture with the rest of volunteers.
⚠️ Requirements
Motivation and flexibility: able to live in basic conditions. Able to work in hard conditions but also to enjoy the atmosphere.
