This project mainly offers a DETOX experience for volunteers minimum 25 y/o rather than an ordinary workcamp. Therefore, we are proposing to volunteers to spend one week of vegan (preferably non cooked) food having the chance of doing a one week fastening (totally or partially) that serves as a healthy way of detoxing especially when your fasting ritual allows you to consume fruits and light vegetables. While this may vary depending on people's beliefs and practices – the essence is to eat light, fresh and unadulterated food. We are looking for volunteers with such wishes and determination. No meat or fish at all will be eaten and we'll focus on consuming local food. The work of volunteers will be light and diverse, approximately 2 hours per day. The type of tasks may be: to clean and maintain ecologic garden, reparation of hives while a lot of excursions and leisure activities such as discovering of natural springs, taking daily sauna, clay baths, walking and climbing hills while maintaining touristic paths and making marks for these.
Accomodation & food:
The accommodation will be at our Wub Wub house which is a small summer house with solar and wind energy. The accommodation will be basic. The tents will be provided for the volunteers even though the aim is to sleep in the open air without tents. Thin mattresses also will be provided but would be useful to bring air mattresses if you want to sleep more comfortable. There are bathrooms and shower facilities, kitchen and also a sauna in the house.
Location & leisure:
The workcamp takes place in Gargantilla del Lozoya, small village of Sierra Norte about 80km away from Madrid. Gargantilla is part of several municipalities of the Valley of Lozoya, most of these are little villages but you can find all you need to live. It's near Buitrago del Lozoya or Rascafría.

« I can say that the best things about the workcamp and this whole experience were the chance of making a real difference to the lives of very needy children. This is an extremely valuable project where volunteers can have a massive impact. Also the possibility of learning a huge amount about a country so different from our own. I learnt ten times as much by carrying out a workcamp than I would ever do backpacking. »
