Description
Update:
From October 2024 we are hosting an Erasmus program for 6 months cofunded from EU with pocket money for people between 18 and 30 years old from EU.
If interested get in touch to have your contact.
Currently we are full house but we may have available space for campervan travellers.
Through workaway we look only for long term participants that can take vital roles in the continuation of the project, other than that we hold programs out of workaway context in terms of exchange and of course workshops and internships for university students.
Please contact accordingly.
