Program Details

We are looking for an experienced content creator to support us with high-quality visual or written content for our hospitality business, mainly for Instagram and selected online platforms.
You do not need to be both a photographer and a writer – but you should have solid experience in at least one area and be confident working independently.
This role focuses on content creation only, not on social media management.
This is not a beginner position.
We are not looking for people who want to “learn” or “try things out.”
You should already have practical experience and be able to deliver results.
Depending on your strengths, your tasks may include:
Photography:
Taking high-quality photos of rooms, outdoor areas, and details
Capturing atmosphere, light, and overall feeling of the property
Writing / Content:
Writing clear, engaging captions and short texts
Supporting website texts or listing improvements (when needed)
General:
Creating Instagram-ready content (photos and/or text)
Organizing and delivering content in a structured, usable format
Identifying what content is needed and taking initiative
Important:
This role is about creating content only – not posting daily, not answering messages, and not managing accounts.
Skills & Experience Required
Proven experience in photography or content writing
Ability to work independently and deliver finished, usable results
Strong eye for detail, aesthetics, or clear communication (depending on your focus)
Understanding of what works on Instagram or similar platforms
Portfolio, website, or active Instagram account is required
This role is for people who already have a skill and can apply it professionally.
Additional Information
We have a medium-sized dog and a cat, so being comfortable with animals is important.


Activities & Shift

Typical activities include:
Creating high-quality visual and/or written content
Planning and producing content based on the property’s needs
Organizing and delivering content in a structured format
Coordinating with us on priorities and content focus
Working hours:
4 days per week
Approx. 20 hours per week
Flexible schedule depending on light conditions and content needs
3 days off per week


Rules

We believe in a fair exchange – a comfortable place to stay in return for reliable and responsible work.
Even though this role is focused on content creation, the same standards apply as for all volunteers:
Keeping your accommodation clean, tidy, and in good condition is your responsibility
The room must be left clean and ready for the next person at departure
If you use the shared kitchen, you must clean everything thoroughly after use
Punctuality and commitment to agreed working hours are essential
We expect you to be organized, reliable, and self-managing
Respect for the space, guests, and team is mandatory
This is a professional collaboration, even in a relaxed environment.
It is not a good fit for people looking for a casual stay with minimal responsibility.
