VerdeVeras

If you are looking for contact with nature and some time living outdoors, we are in the warmest part of Europe, so we have fairly good weather here all year round. There is plenty of space to park a motorhome or pitch a tent. The site is 10 minute walk from the nearest town, with banks, supermarkets, bars and a bus station. There are regular buses to the local beaches and most major cities in Spain. This is an eco project, so we are completely powered by solar. We have wifi, charging points, a swimming pool, hot showers and a communal kitchen available for use. The lounge bar is a great place to relax all year round.

Volunteers will work 15 hours per week for space to stay here, without food provided. This is usually 3 hours a day, 5 days a week, with 2 days off, but I am flexible. I am vegetarian and, although I don't mind what food volunteers cook for themselves, I prefer people with a flexitarian approach to their diet. This is an environmental education centre and global food production is one of the biggest contributors to climate change. I prefer people who are open to adapting their diet whilst here. During the winter months, there is a possibility of working more hours for provided vegetarian food, to prepare yourself. If volunteers do not have their own accommodation, I may sometimes be able to provide something basic. Although I ask for a minimum stay of three weeks, I always feel that staying longer gives a mutually better experience and I will give priority to those who wish to do so. There is no maximum length of stay. A community spirit is created when everyone contributes. If you want to have a community experience, bring that spirit with you.

I had a wonderful time! Got my first real taste of community eco-living. Rachel is a strong personality and likes to move fast, if that’s you then you will have a great time. Work is easy, and Rachel makes it easy to learn more about why we do this. The worldpackers course covers a lot of the living standards, things like solar and community kitchens. But overall everything was great.

Thanks for all your help. It's a shame you left early, I hope it was worth it 🙂

NO RECOMIENDO ESTE LUGAR todo estaba sucio desde el lugar para dormir, sábana, cocina y todo en ella, etc. No había habitación privada como dice el perfil, era una caravana en muy malas condiciones donde hacia mucho frío. La anfitriona tiene mal trato hacia las personas (en especial notamos un trato malo hacia los latinoamericanos) y su español es muy malo. Su higiene personal es muy malo. No se trabajan las horas dichas, hace “riego” por las tardes con un calendario muy confuso y esto no permite la tarde libre ningún día. No deberían permitir que un lugar así reciba voluntarios.

¿En serio? Obviamente no has leído mi perfil. ¿Por qué vienes a un ecoproyecto si no puedes soportar un poco de suciedad? Vivimos al aire libre, en el desierto. No vale la pena comentar el resto, eres grosero e irrespetuoso.

Verde Veras was my first Worldpackers project, planned for four weeks, but I stayed longer because I enjoyed it so much. The focus on sustainability impressed me, and I learned the basics of permaculture. Tasks were simple, leaving time to enjoy the peaceful setting. Rachel, the host, is direct but kind and passionate about the project. The campsite offers hot water, an outdoor kitchen, and a fridge—great for travelers like me. It’s not a place for parties or luxury. If you're seeking tranquility and nature, it's perfect.
Thank you, Rachel, for creating this inspiring place!
