The Experience

We are looking for people to bring their energy and welcome our guests like we do. At the same time, we are looking for people that want to share their culture with us. We don't need experienced volunteers. We will teach you everything you need about how to welcome a guest and how to serve. **We provide tents (check images on our photo gallery). However, if you want to bring your own, it's completely fine. :)** more priority 1 month + stay

My time at çika's Camping was definitely one of the best experiences of my life, they (Gazi and his Aunt) welcomed me very well and they were very kind to me. And they also have a dog named seved that he is sooooo cute. I highly recommend it if you like to be surrounded by nature, mountains and you like the beach. The tasks were simple and they had a lot of flexibility when doing the tasks, once the work is done we also had a lot of free time to enjoy the place and do other types of activities.! The place is amaizing! The vibes are so cool. And if its possible i will return next year!! 😁

I arrived at cikas camping and was met by the two most friendly people I have had the pleasure to meet and an Albanian beer. Nexhi and Gazi made me feel at home for a whole month and made it hard to leave because I really didn't want to. I didn't expect to leave having met two people that I care for so deeply. I couldn't recommend this experience enough, especially if you love mountains, beaches, making new friends and eating amazing home cooked local food. I'll be returning again as a local and a friend!

Our stay at “Çikas Camping” was amazing! We had three weeks fully connected with nature and we spent most of our days working at the beach. Gazi and his auntie are warm and friendly people who will treat you as family. Gazi has a beautiful project in the camping and at the beach bar. Both places have been created to offer guests and volunteers a chill time to relax and get along. So if you enjoy the beach, talking to people, being proactive and camping life, this is the right voluntary work for you! I really hope we can come back next year to keep enjoying camping life at “Çikas” ♥️

My experience was definitely more than I was expected. In the 3 weeks we stayed here we didn't receive too much guests, because summer season haven't started yet. However, throughout all the volunteering we decided to help as much as we could in different areas, such as kind of landscaping and painting. The camping cite is around 3 minutes from the beach (walking), so if you really enjoyed beach life, and you're proactive, you'll have a great experience here. Gazi and his aunt ❤️ are so friendly and willing to help and teach you if you don't know something.

Gazi was very welcoming and the work was very simple and straight forward and gave me a lot of time to relax and really enjoy my time there! The cooking by his auntie was amazing (favourite part of this experience!) and Seven was the cutest companion. I would definitely recommend this experience!
