Program Details
Come collaborate in maintaining a space dedicated to silence, Vipassana meditation, and self-discovery, surrounded by nature in southern Italy (Calabria).
We’re looking for hands-on people aligned with a simple and conscious lifestyle. Main tasks include:
Gardening and vegetable care
Outdoor maintenance and small repairs
Light painting and carpentry
Preparing the space before and after retreats
During retreat periods, volunteering is paused, as the space is reserved for participants.
When there are no retreats, it's the perfect time to help, learn, and experience the daily rhythm of the place with calm, respect, and presence.
