Area: Andalusia, Atlantic coastline.

I live with my 3 children in a beautiful spot on the Atlantic Coast of Andalusia. We are looking for help in and around the house. I started a garden project, but due to the rain we could not finish. Need urgently help. Looking for male/female any age, who doesn't mind physical work.

Area: Massa D Carrara Tuscany

I am a writer and storyteller born in Scotland but have spent a great deal of time in Italy and I am currently living my lifelong dream of restoring a lovely old Tuscan villa and am looking for volunteers to help in exchange for full bed and board. I am hoping to be totally self sufficient here in my little homestead and to create an eco friendly food garden. I hope in the future to be able to host workshops here and enjoy visits from my very large and very busy family and group of friends. This is a beautiful part of Tuscany, in the mountains, surrounded by chestnut forests and rivers but close enough to the beach and skiing resorts (40 mins) to offer the best of all worlds. 15 mins from the fabulous medieval (and market) town of Pontremoli and just over an hour from Pisa, under 2 hours from Parma, Milan, Florence, Bologna and many other beautiful cities. It has everything including cheap and frequent flights to and from Pisa!

Area: Ronda

This is a small 6-bedroom hotel in a tiny traditional Andalucian village deep in the mountains near Ronda. We cater to a discerning clientele who come for walking, naturewatching, relaxing. We need help, single person or a couple, for the month of April. If you would like a short sojourn in a beautiful valley with great walking at this perfect time of year, please read on! You would enjoy being in a small traditional Andalucian village setting with friendly people, some youngsters, but few foreigners so a good opportunity to improve your Spanish! You will have lots of free time, food and a small single hotel room with its own bathroom.

Area: Tuscany, Umbria

The work can be hard, but so is the fun. We're a young family fixing up a country house, raising our two children, cultivating an organic garden, and caring for 50 olive trees. We enjoy a location near Chiusi in Central Italy, halfway between Roma and Firenze, Assisi and Siena. The house and grounds are surrounded by an old estate ensuring privacy and providing swimming pools, tennis courts, playing fields, and wooded parkland.

Area: Quetzaltenango

Our Community Center is a non-profit, non-governmental organization funded by its Spanish language school. All of our proceeds return directly to the community through our educational programs for children, which involve teaching English, art, Spanish reinforcement, mathematics, science, theater, and more at four sites on the outskirts of Quetzaltenango (Guatemala´s second-largest city). The children we serve often come from families who have been marginalized by poverty, indigenous Mayan heritage, or rural backgrounds, and many lack access to the privilege of a primary school education even though six years are theoretically provided free of charge under the Guatemalan system. Our foreign volunteers provide creative, thoughtful instruction and activities which these children would otherwise not receive. To that end we seek dedicated and enthusiastic individuals who are motivated to give back to some of the most disenfranchised communities in Quetzaltenango. If you are interested in learning about grassroots social development work through education, want to gain valuable international teaching experience, and improve your Spanish through work with kids, our Community Center has a place for you!
