  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Volunteers have shared rooms with bed and blankets,
    In our family we like to share. So the uses of all the facilities in the house are at your disposal: bathroom with hot water, stove, washer ... cooking and housecleaning takes place among all, as a member of the family.

    We eat together and cooked organic food. We are not vegetarian but we eat a lot of vegetables! :)
    We have access to the Internet, however we like that when we are at the table there are no telephones while we talk.

    Inside the house there are sleeps for 6 to 10 people. If more space is needed, there is also the possibility to sleep in a tent, if you bring it.

    We are currently looking for volunteers to undertake this dream ! The smoker can smoke outside.


    Los voluntarios disponen de habitaciones compartidas con cama y cobijas,
    en nuestra familia nos gusta compartir, así que el uso de todas las facilidades del hogar están a su disposición: baño con agua caliente, cocina, lavadora... cocinar y la limpieza del hogar se lleva a cabo entre todos, como un miembro de la familia mas.

    Tenemos acceso a Internet, sin embargo nos gusta que cuando estemos en la mesa no haya teléfonos mientras conversamos.

    Dentro de la casa hay capacidad para 6 a 10 personas, y si se necesitara mas espacio es posible ubicar hasta 4 carpas, si las traen ustedes.

    De momento buscamos como 6 voluntarios para emprender este sueño! fumadores o no, porque pueden fumar fuera de la casa.
