Program Details

It's good to know that working here, often you have to have initiative in tasks, managing your own time, and being flexible in taking into consideration priorities and needs of the center. Even though many amazing retreats are held here, everyday work life probably doesn't feel like being on a retreat or in a yoga heaven :) A lot of the work has to do with assisting in "behind the scenes" stuff like house keeping and fixing.

Activities & Shift

Tasks include:

- Housekeeping (cleaning & laundry)
- Photography & social medias
- Marketing
- Gardening in spring/summer/autumn
- Cooking for the volunteer team
- Hosting and helping in the kitchen during retreats, events and workshops
- Building & renovating the spaces
- Painting (walls, but also creative murals if you have the skills)
- Fixing, decorating and doing maintenance
- Interior design

Tell us if you have any specific skills that could be useful to a place like ours! We would love to host someone with good skills in various handy tasks like carpentry and general fixing tasks.

Rules

We communicate a lot about the tasks via Whatsapp, so it is important that you can use your phone and respond to messages while you work.
