Opportunity for photography lovers in Crete

Brazil

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 time in Crete was amazing and the host would take me to many beautiful places, also when he would go to work, he'd drop me somewhere in the city. It's definitely a great opportunity for a solo traveler who is not afraid of being alone. it was especially meaningful for me as if was my first solo trip and I actually had some time for myself with the gorgeous surroundings. the work done there wasn't heavy at all. we'd make some photos while e.g. driving to somewhere or in general combining it with nice experiences. i definitely recommend it!!!

The host was respectful and flexible. He chose locations according to my likings. I didn't like hiking, and wanted to do beach destinations. Also the work flow is not heavy, it was 2 days out of my 9 days stay, which left plenty of room for me to discover crete. This opportunity is perfect for a solo independent traveler. Especially that the host has other job/commitments. Which worked perfectly fine for me and my personal discovery. The house location is 15mins from the center, and there is a public transportation within a 15mins walk. I would recommend this experience

This was my first time volunteering with worldpackers. It was a very good experience. I helped RNP build his portfolio as a tour guide/photographer. I had great opportunities to practice modelling and also express my own photography ideas. RNP also showed me lots of beautiful hidden gems in Crete.

I stayed here in Crete for 12 days and it was personally a good place to really relax during the week the host would go to work so you can just explore the downtown city he would also bring in lunch for you and dinner everyday unless you just decide you'd like to eat somewhere else on your own time. This is also a nice work exchange if you're very open minded about photography and very used to being on camera!

My time in Rethymno was so nice, I loved getting to work with Argyris on his photography project we had a great time getting to explore the island. He was very nice and generous, I would definitely recommend this project to anyone who is photogenic or has experience in photography.
