Program Details

Ofreceremos alojamiento en la finca en una cabaña para 2 personas, con agua caliente, cocina y baño y garantizamos los alimentos básicos necesarios para realizar tres comidas diarias. El trabajo se concentrará generalmente en 6h diarias de lunes a viernes, teniendo el resto del tiempo y los fines de semana libres para estudiar, realizar otras tareas y conocer el pueblo y la comarca. El Parque Natural Sierra María-Los Vélez ofrece la posibilidad de disfrutar de un entorno natural único y realizar distintas actividades deportivas, principalmente senderismo y bicicleta, así como avistamiento de aves. Además, Vélez Blanco es un pueblo con mucho encanto con muchos rincones para visitar y con una rica gastronomía para disfrutar de los productos locales.

Nuestras expectativas con este intercambio son, principalmente, disponer de ayuda para sacar adelante las tareas básicas de la finca para así poder desarrollar de forma eficiente otras tareas y proyectos, así como conocer y compartir nuestro espacio con personas afines y poder expandir la Permacultura y aprender mutuamente.
