💼 What the programme involves
The work of volunteers will be to construct with bio materials. On the other side, we hope that volunteers will get in contact and get along with the local people, creating good atmosphere and showing them in a way how taking care of your natural habitats is important.
Work will be done from Monday to Friday, approx. 6 hours per day. After work there's free time to have some rest and enjoy the town and area.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Town hall will hire a house for the volunteers where they will have a kitchen to cook. Summer sleeping bag and lower sheets will be needed!
The accommodation is basic; nevertheless, it would be just for us. And also town hall will provide the food for us and it will be cooked by the volunteers in the kitchen of the house.
📍 About the location
El Saucejo is a town located 80 km away from Sevilla. You reach Sevilla, Granada, Cordoba or Malaga in a bit more than an hour. We advise you to book some extra days to do all these excursions. You will enjoy nice natural areas around and lively summer Spanish fiestas. Temperatures in July here are really high, so be prepared for hot summer.
Village has 4500 inhabitants. Economic activity is based on agriculture but there are some steps forward to tourism, as it is a dwelling town from which you are able to reach the nicest spots of Andalucia. It is very well-known for the improvements taken on reduction of energy consumption. For instance, the whole town uses a special illumination system designed by a local citizen that helps to reduce light pollution.
