Program Details

During your stay at Masseria Olga you will be the main character! We want to build our international community starting from our volunteers. We want you to feel at home here (and to eat delicious local food of course!). We expect you to help with the daily activities, from housekeeping (keeping the common spaces clean, laundry of towels and bedsheets, support for basic maintenance) to Community Host (organising social dinners, yoga or other sports, supporting guests).

Activities & Shift

We have a wide range of tasks available depending on your preferences and top skills! We won't force you to do anything you mislike and we will be ready to accept your inputs in case you have some specific skills you want to make available to the community and to us! In terms of shifts, we prefer you to work on an half-day shift, either in the morning or the afternoon. In case you prefer, you might even divide your working hours between morning and afternoon. In any case, we expect you to be part of the community and to respect the other people who live in the house, even when you are not working (clean your own dishes, keep your room clean, ...). As we tend to host 2 volunteers at a time, you will split the tasks with another volunteer and you will cover up each other on your free days.

Rules

Mutual respect is the main rule. As the coliving is based on community life and sharing, respect is the main thing, at any time.
