Program Details

The volunteer program is an exchange between both parties. We offer an amazing place very well located, with delicious vegetarian lunch and ingredients for a nutritional simple breakfast, accommodation and a community life. In exchange, we are looking for a committed, experienced and self responsible person. We expect that people that join us are caring for the self, for the other and for the space. We want to leave a better place behind and we expect every volunteer that comes here to do the same.

Activities & Shift

On duty: 5 days per week, 5 hours per day.
Off: 2 days per week.
There are communal tasks like cleaning common toilets and cleaning the kitchen, that are shared by everyone and not counted as part of the 5 hours per on duty day.
Everyone is also involved in helping out with the compost toilets operation. This means at least once or twice during their stay, to participate in the cleaning well organised process.

Rules

Number of showers per week might be limited due to the dry season, between May and November.
