The Experience

This project invites photography enthousiasts and/or hobbyists to help with my photography project. The project includes helping out with my photography course and/or creating a portfolio (mainly oriented on advertising touristic trips in Crete). Particularly, I am interested in the following three domains: a) photography experts to share their knowledge/techniques, b) good-looking individuals/couples to model, c) social media experts/influencers

It was really nice and uncomplicated yet I didn't stay long. Rethymno is a nice City but also the whole area is very beautiful. I really recommend the Host, he was very kind and easy going.

Doing this project in Rethymno was short but great! RNP is very easy going, no fixed schedule, very welcoming and made sure I have everything I need & more. We exchanged a lot of ideas, got some nice shots on beautiful beaches and gorges - felt like a mix of supporting the host's photography journey and discovering beautiful Crete. A good choice if you're after an inspiring volunteering opportunity.

Volunteering in Greece was easygoing and informal, with no set schedule. I spent many days exploring Rethymno's beaches on my own. On days we took photos, we visited beaches, villages, and trails. It's a home stay and a daily meal was included, and I enjoyed lots of downtime. It felt less like a project and more like supporting the host's photography studies and business. The Couchsurfing-style approach meant flexible but uncertain plans. Ideal for those wanting a laid-back stay. Happy to answer questions! 💛

My experience at the RNP Photography Project in Rethymno, Crete was fantastic! The host was warm, helpful, and respectful of our space, yet always up for great conversations. The food was lovely, the sunsets from the balcony were unforgettable, and we had plenty of chances to be creative and collaborate on photography. He also took us to some amazing spots around Crete, making the whole experience truly special. If you're looking for a creative and inspiring volunteering opportunity in a beautiful setting, I highly recommend this project!✨☺️

We had a great experience! We felt very comfortable and welcomed from the start, always professional but also kind. Every day, he provided a well-balanced lunch for us, which we really appreciated. He even offered to take us into the city and would regularly go out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Overall, we felt supported, respected, and at ease during our time there. Highly recommend!
