Program Details

We are looking for 2 confident and hands-on volunteers to help us assemble and set up a sauna at Agger Hostel, located between the sea, the fjord and Thy National Park on the west coast of Denmark.

The sauna is a pre-purchased kit, not a custom build.
Important: We do not have building or construction experience ourselves, so it is essential that you are able to read manuals, plan the work and take responsibility for the building process. You do not need to be a professional carpenter, but you must be comfortable working independently and solving practical challenges along the way.
