Program Details
The absolute requirement contains only cleaning and maintaining the bathrooms, kitchen, hallways and hangout spaces to a nice looking level. If you want and can help with laundry and cooking, that would be a great help! Besides from that we have a lot of interesting things going on most of the year where you can take part in, meet other people from other countries and have great experiences!
Activities & Shift
The required tasks should preferably be done in the morning. Looking after the tidiness and cleanness in the bathrooms of our hostel, the kitchen, the common room and the outside areas should be the first thing of the day. The rest of the day can be structured more freely.
There is loads of little and fun side quests, that you are very welcome to do! From gardening, to building stuff, to cutting some stuff in the forest, foraging, finding and writing down hiking trails…
Rules
The only thing that is very important for us is respect in every aspect. We live in this international community with people from different countries, cultures, interests, backgrounds… and have even more people visiting this place as volunteers, youth exchange participants… everyone here is treated equally, we make no difference between people, so of importance is: respect, politeness, tolerance, to come with an open mind, be creative, think outside the box ❤️
