Accommodation is provided in shared housing facilities in the mountainous areas of Gran Canaria. Volunteers stay in shared bedrooms with two or three persons per room, with access to kitchen and sanitary facilities. Food arrangements are organised within a plant-based living context. Volunteers are actively involved in grocery shopping, food preparation and shared meals, including making meals and simple food products such as bread. Warm meals are usually shared. Support staff accompany the group for local transport related to project activities. Public transport is within walking distance.
