A beautiful place to volunteer
June 18, 2024by: Thalia Klotz - FranceProgram: Kalamos and Kastos Sustainable Development ProgramI had a great time in Terra Sylvestris, with a perfect balance between work and rest. The work is physically hard but in a beautiful and small island and there is no specific knowledge to have. I participated in the bird monitoring and the camera trapping for monk seals, it was like adventures and hikes. And of course I helped gardening. We learned things about permaculture and the island community. You can enjoy the beach everyday after your morning work! Thanks Ted
My time in Kalamos within Terra Sylvestris
June 13, 2024by: Bastien Perro - FranceProgram: Kalamos and Kastos Sustainable Development ProgramI had really good time within the organisation. The place is beautiful and it is really nice to explore the island while listening birds or placing camera traps for seals. Also, we have some free time to enjoy this beautiful place and to garden within the nice garden of the house !!
