Accommodation, food and transport arrangements
Normally all the volunteers live in shared flats: have their own room but share a kitchen and a bathroom with 3 other volunteers. Food money will be paid out to you as well as money to buy the local transportation monthly ticket or you just buy a bike. Leipzig is a very nice city to ride a bike. You get monthly 558 Euros.
Training during the activity
We will help you to find a German language course which fits your needs and level. The volunteer will also attend two seminars for volunteers organized by the National Agency. The volunteer will work on some weekends and get day offs during the week, the working hours (30 h/week) will depend on the events (concerts, festivals, exhibitions), so there will be sometimes shifts in the evening (until 11 pm).
