The Experience

We need 50 volunteers to help with our olive harvest this year. We will have a big operation and volunteers will stay in one of 3 traditional and beautiful houses in the village of Vuno. We will work in teams and alternate between morning and evening shifts. The work is five hours a day and the rest of the time you are free to explore the beautiful beaches nearby, walk in the mountains, go to Himare, and relax around the village with others.

I had a beautiful experience at the guest house & the guest house. Both places are truly unique, and the hosts are amazing people. The tasks are simple and give you the chance to enjoy the place. Vuno is a beautiful village, and the beaches nearby are absolutely stunning. I really enjoyed the work and spending time with other volunteers, as well as with Bree, Adrian, and Julie. I definitely recommend this wonderful place. Thank you guys for the hospitality. We're gonna see each other again, for sure!
