Work

Manual work will be less in this camp as the main purpose of the camp is to practice English. Volunteers and participants will clean the beach/campsite and do similar activities together. Participants will be responsible for the daily cleaning of the site including the grounds, kitchen, toilets, bathrooms and tents. Participants are also expected to do daily activities with local children in the disabled campsite, participate in beach cleaning, help with general landscaping.

Accomodation and food

Accommodation will be in a tent. Participants must bring their own tents, sleeping bags and mats. Male and female participants will stay in separated tents. 3 meals in a day will be prepared by host NGO volunteers and served with the help of participants but general cleaning work is at the participants responsibility.

The camp site includes a kitchen, shared showers, toilets and an office and is suitable for outdoor activities. Internet connection will be provided on a limited basis at certain times of the day. Boat trip will be organised during the camp on free day but all expenses related to the trip belong to the participant.
