    Descripción

    This is a charity project in a beautiful Istria peninsula. Our primary objective is to help the local communities in the Istria region. We support them in any way we can. We help people in need, work on local sustainable projects and preservation of local natural and cultural heritage.

    In the last ten years we have hosted more than 1200 volunteers from 56 countries and created an inspiring space of cooperation, creativity and harmony among volunteers and the locals. In 2021 we were nominated for Salto award as one of the top five volunteering projects in Europe.

    We host around 15 volunteers all year round. We are located in the village of Kastelec, 30 min by bus from the coastal town of Koper.

    Next groups - dates of arrival and departure:

    6.5.-5.7.2024: we are searching for 3 volunteers from Italy, Austria, Netherlands, Germany, France or Estonia. All costs are covered through ESC program.
    9.9.-8.11.2024 - we are looking for volunteers with renovation skills. Beside that we are also accepting other volunteers 18-30 years old through ESC program. All the costs are covered (transport, meals, accommodation).

    There is a great variety of things to do, so if you want to bring out the hero in you, come and join us!

  • Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

    Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

    We help local communities and NGOs in different Istrian villages, so we have warm and pristine relationship with local population. This enables volunteers to experience real Istria - its people, nature and traditions.

    Our work is diverse, so you will learn many useful skills, from easy construction work to cooking. After work, everyone is encouraged to share their skills and talents, so there are frequent workshops, debates, movie nights...

    Our work is really diverse. We help people in need, help local eco farmers, organise workshops for kids, help in an animal shelter, help local charities, participate at local cultural events, clean overgrown terraces and paths, organise clean-up actions and much more...To do all that we need many helping hands.

    Since our work is really diverse, we are not looking for specific profiles, but we are searching for volunteers who have enthusiasm, motivation and will to learn new skills.

    We decided to dedicate our work to non-profit charity activities only. This makes us different from most other hosts, but also means that we do not create profit to cover volunteers' costs. Therefore we kindly ask volunteers to contribute 5 eur per day towards the costs of their food. In case you are coming through ESC project, all the costs are covered through the program.

    Volunteers will stay in volunteer center in Kastelec village. We have simple shared rooms that can accommodate 18 volunteers (3 rooms for 2 volunteers and 2 for 6 volunteers), 3 shared toilets and showers, big kitchen, living room, relaxation room and beautiful surroundings. Just behind the house we have a basketball court.

    There are three vegetarian meals per day. We only cook vegetarian food, as we want to promote sustainability, not only in our volunteering but also in our daily life.

    Algo más...

    In the free time after lunch and in the evenings we share with one another our knowledge, play social games, walk on slackline, go swimming, rock climbing (there are great climbing sites nearby), play volleyball, basketball, read, watch movies and talk.

    Our surroundings, Istria, is a fine region to practise hiking, biking and climbing, as much in the mountainous inland as at the coast.

    Adriatic coast is near. There are unfrequent buses to coastal town of Koper that take 30 minutes.

    About half an hour car drive from us are:
    - A beautiful old town of Piran;
    - Škocjan and Postojna caves.

    Towns of Venezia, Ljubljana, Pula, Rovinj, Croatian islands and Julian Alps with Triglav national park are 1 to 2 hours away.
