This is a magnificent opportunity for people who like doing outer work, being in contact with nature, and who have the capacity to solve conflicting situations, as well as bringing creative solutions, and helping to generate teamwork conditions. It is also a great opportunity for those who wish to improve the Spanish language. Participants receive accommodation and pocket money ( 50 Euros per week) for basic expenses. They will be accommodated with other international participants in an apartment with shared kitchen, bathroom, and living room. Participants can join the program during a period of 2 weeks minimum.
