Area: Alpujarra, Sierra Nevada, Granda, Andalucia, Spain

An established retreat centre offering Yoga and Detox courses in one of the most enchanting regions in Andalucia, surrounded by the wilderness of the Sierra Nevada and only half an hour by car to the Mediterranean. Our farmhouse location is a home-from-home for people who love beauty, yoga, tranquility, and above all, a place to find peace, laughter and simplicity. This is an excellent work exchange opportunity for people with an interest in yoga and who would enjoy listening to our guests, without necessarily needing to be the centre of attention. If you are open-hearted, generous, humourous, grounded and stable and are able to receive and give in equal measure, we'd like to hear from you. Self-motivation and genuine self-confidence is very important, as you will be in daily contact with staff and guests. This summer 2010 we now have a few dates of availabilty again.

This institution was created by the initiative of a group of neighbors in order to attend to urgent basic needs of many families in our community Nowadays we help 50 families from Monday to Sunday, having between 6 and 14 children each, all of them at risk. After a short while some businesses in the area learnt about our project and started to cooperate so that the help given would improve daily. In this way we could carry out our main objective: To supply families with the necessary tools to generate real income resources. This project is self supporting at the medium term but in the meantime it is necessary to continue feeding and helping children mainly, who are the most critical age group. This is why your contribution is essential to maintain our mission.
