Resumo: The organization is located in a small village. It has a population of around 140 inhabitants, but due to its peaceful beauty and ideal climate, this rises to around 1000 in the summer months. It is located in the national park, and it belongs to the former National Reserve, made up of various neighbouring towns.

The town has 1 primary school with 5 pupils during the winter, with the number increasing to about 50/60 during the summer months. It has a brand new interactive fossil museum that opened this year, as well as marine fossils over 400 million years old embedded all round the village, such as on paths and on the walls of houses. Not to be missed! It also has 1 communal library, a botanical garden, a recreational centre for the elderly, amongst other things.
Obviously, it is quite a small place that is fairly isolated. This means that if you are coming from a bustling city, or even a large town, you will likely experience a bit of a ‘culture shock’.

Perfil: It would be convenient if the volunteers are/have:
• High level in Spanish or English language.
• Flexible and open-minded.
• Interest for environmental or geological activities.
• Capable of living in a small village for months.
• No specific or professional training is required.
Age: 18-30

Tarefas: The activities you can do as part of the project are either environmental (the volunteer will be placed in a work team with a few local workers who can guide them through what needs doing. Their hours are usually 07:00-15:00) or working with children (they leave mid-way through September). There is also the option to do a mix of both. The tasks included are listed below (but this is not an exhaustive list)…If they like, the volunteer can also participate in the museum. This would generally involve giving guided tours of the museum, so a good level of Spanish and/or English is important if you are interested! Someone with experience in IT would also be a good candidate for a position at the museum.

Environmental area:
- Helping maintain the national park (e.g. keeping tourist hotspots accessible and tidy such as viewpoints, paths, etc.)
- Helping maintain the botanical garden
- Helping keep areas at risk of forest fire clear and safe
- Supporting associations that work to prevent forest fires (helping with prevention methods etc.)

Children/young person’s area:
- Teaching English to the children and the other volunteers (adults)
- Supporting school staff with carrying out activities, games and workshops with children
- Participation in the various activities organised by local volunteers
- If they like, offering their own new activities and games to the children

Condições: Volunteers will stay in a flat located at the centre of the village with their own bedroom (usually private, but it is possible they share with another volunteer). The bathrooms and kitchen is shared, and volunteers buy and cook their own food. There is WiFi. Volunteers are given 120€ a month to buy food.
