Tasks
The project will involve 2 ESC volunteers that will collaborate with the staff members of Ostello Parco Monte Barro related to the management and improvement of sustainable practices and activities, as well as:
- Management of areas and spaces of the hostel: clean and tide up rooms and common areas, check that everything works and make them nice for guests’ arrival, (rarely) help in the kitchen for certain events.
- Outdoor activities (especially from April to October): clean and tide up outside areas, collect leaves and check there is no garbage around, little gardening.
- Front office: support in the reception, support in checking-in and registering guests, support in selling local products from the little bazar we have.
- Events: support in organizing and preparing events, such as, markets with local products, courses, and excursions.
- Environmental education activities and presentations: every summer we host our summer camps and volunteers can take part in supporting the staff and camp leaders in activities with children and excursions; we do presentations and tours of the hostel for the groups and organizations that stay with us.
- Social media: we have an IG page for the volunteers @barro.team and one for the hostel @ostello_barro. Volunteers manage the first one and support in managing the second with pictures, ideas, videos.
- Art and personal competences: any type of art or talent or competence is welcome and well received. Every person that participates at the life of the hostel leaves their own little footprint!
