Santarém, Portugalska
Opis
The ultimate goal of this project is to create a community ecological garden, based on the principles of permaculture. As such, the volunteer will be required to participate in manual work related to the preparation and maintenance of the garden. These activities will take place exclusively in the morning, ensuring that the volunteer has free time after lunch to enjoy the cultural and personal experience provided by the project. Santarém is a historic city with over a thousand years of history, located in the center of Portugal and bordered by the Tagus River, the largest river in the Iberian Peninsula. It has around 60,000 inhabitants and enjoys a strategic location: 60 km from Lisbon, 50 km from the Atlantic Ocean, 200 km from both Porto and the Algarve, and 120 km from the Spanish border. The city is well served by public transport, with regular train and bus connections, ensuring easy access and mobility. P.S. The activity will be at least 59 days.
