  Descrição

  IMPORTANT: Volunteer assignments with me are always for a very short period, usually 5 days; max 14 days. If you are looking for a longer assignment, please do not contact me.
  
  We are a non profit group that organizes group travels for a very mixed, international audience. The trips evolve around a central theme (eg. mountains, winter sports or arts). Usually we are at some remote location high in the mountains. It's all about the group and enjoy the group dynamics. As a workawayer you will basically simply be part of the group and enjoying all activities; there is no division between 'staff', 'volunteers', 'participants'; we're all together.
  
  Apart from enjoying the outdoor activities, participants tend to discover all kinds of things about themselves. It's always an unforgettable experience. Group size is usually between 8 and 16 people.
  
  Our participants mainly come from all over Europe but we have had participants from all continents with the exception of Antarctica. Ages ranging from under 20 to over 50.
  If you volunteer with us, you should feel comfortable in very mixed environments with diverse nationalities and diverse sexual orientations.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  You will be part of a mixed international group (usually people from different countries and even continents sign up, ages ranging from 20 till in their 50s). You will learn about group dynamics and connection. But mainly, because you will be participating in the trip just like the 'normal' participants, you will have an amazing fun time.

  Ajuda

  We have 3 offers at the moment:
  
  (1) Around April 27, 2024 we will be in the Swiss Alps for a long weekend dedicated to creating informative video- and photo-material about our trips. For this long weekend we are looking for:
  (a) a 'master of ceremony'/time manager/1st AD that controls schedules, makes sure we do everything as planned, etc.
  (b) a videoperson to actually shoot the material
  (c) people that want to appear in the material. Maybe you're an aspiring actor - but that's not necessary as we're not trying to create something very 'smooth' or professional. Because of representation it would be fantastic if you're a POC and/or Queer person.
  All this will take place on a unique location high in the Swiss Alps. If you want, you can use your spare time for skiing or hiking. There will also be yoga sessions, guided meditations, communal meals and lots of fun and connective activities.
  The whole thing will take some 4 days.
  
  
  (2) Are you looking for a unique and rewarding summer experience? Join us in Switzerland for a week of hiking and other exciting activities, July 14-20, 2024! Not only will you get to enjoy the beauty of the Swiss Alps, but you'll also have the opportunity to volunteer your YOGA or MASSAGE or BODYWORK skills to support participants and support the group dynamics and feeling of togetherness and freedom. This is a fantastic opportunity to make a positive impact, practice your skills, and have an adventure of a lifetime. Don't miss out – be our volunteer this summer!
  
  If you're a yoga teacher, your volunteering assignment will consist of giving basic sessions to the group some around once per day. This involves improvisation - there will not be a dedicated yoga space and sometimes it will also be outside.
  
  If you’re a massage therapist, your volunteering assignment will consist of (a) giving a basic workshop to the group two or three times (b) giving one or two massages per day to one participant per time, so that, by the end of the trip, everybody received a massage.
  
  If you’re doing some other kind of bodywork, we’ll discuss what kind of schedule makes sense.
  
  The volunteering would be around 2 hours per day. For the rest of the time, you are expected to participate in all the activities just like all other participants. This consists of mountain hiking, yoga, meditations, sharings, games, household chores, group life in general. We will be in a mountain hut in an empty valley without infrastructure.
  
  (2) Or... Are you really good at SEO long tail keyword research for a niche in an international market? Then you could join in our trips as well!
  
  WE DO NOT NEED VOLUNTEERS FOR OTHER PERIODS.
  
  --- If you write, please explain clearly why you are the right person for the position! ---
  
  THERE IS THIS OPTION AS WELL:
  We're also looking for volunteers that can help with a number of online tasks cq. tasks that can be done in your community. These can be done wherever you are. Regrettably we can not offer accommodation etc. _while you are doing the online tasks_ but we can offer you to participate for free in one or two of our adventure trips in Switzerland afterwards. These trips are 5 to 7 days long and include inspiration, accommodation in the mountain hut where the event is taking place (dorm rooms), full board and often meditations, yoga sessions, workshops... There are usually at least two in summer and two in winter to choose from.
  We're looking for people with skills and experience in this:
  - online marketing
  - event organisation
  - community building
