Wirkstadt

Here you'll find a place full of resources and possibilities but it requires some self-motivation. The space is full of possibilities to unfold creativity, weather its in craft with wood, metal or plastic, painting, cooking, organising events and the list goes on.
We appreciate if you to tell us what you're after. Wether it's a certain skill, a dish you love to eat, art, or else... It's important for us to clarify that your expectations meets our offer.

As versatile the space is, so are the people who live here. You will find different ways of living, a varied mixture of characters which always leads to interesting discussions. The volunteers are given a lot of freedom and space to create with a few daily duties that we assign depending on the projects that are running.

Mi tiempo en la comunidad sin duda de las mejores experiencias que e tenido, la experiencia es sumamente enriquecedora de tantas formas, la comunidad te hace sentir como en casa, te muestran su apoyo y cariño desde el primer día lo cual ayuda a generar este ambiente de confianza para que puedas desenvolverte en el proyecto y/o tarea que elijas que suelen ser bastante flexibles y llenas de creatividad si así lo eliges. Definitivamente la comunidad es un lugar mágico estoy infinitamente agradecido <3

Que decir de la comunidad! Tremenda experiencia. Sin duda un lugar que va a quedar para siempre en mi corazón! Todo aquí es increíble. Un infinito mar de posibilidades si quieres aprender sobre autosuficiencia y lo que es vivir en comunidad. A mi me apeteció involucrarme en el taller de madera y brindarle vida al atelier de costura haciendo pequeñas reparaciones de ropa para los compañer@s. Es un lugar cálido y humano donde te dan mucha libertad para desarrollar las habilidades que te apetezcan. Gracias de corazón por el tiempo compartido, las risas, los trekkings, migros y coldbaths! :)

One of the best volunteering experiences I've ever had. The people in the community were very friendly and made me feel right at home from day one. The townspeople were also very friendly and gave me a warm welcome. The tasks are incredibly flexible, and the opportunities to start new projects and connect with your artistic side are always encouraged. I absolutely loved this magical place!! Thank you so much!

Magic is real and it lives in the community! this community has been my sanctuary for a month, it was the perfect place to end a beautiful summer. every person i befriended here has an effervescent soul and made me feel seen - strangeness is not only accepted here but appreciated, we were weird and wonderful at dinner time dance parties and underneath meteor showers and in ice cold rivers. the work was catered to my creative spirit, i got to spend my days in the sewing room, or craft supply storage, and i got to partake in bringing to life a giant jellyfish -it was ideal! i will miss it forever!!
