Participants will be accommodated in double/triple rooms with bathroom (towels included). Accommodation and full board meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) are covered by the organisers. 

- The volunteering program will provide you with 3 meals per day (breakfast, lunch and dinner).  The meals will be balanced and based on traditional Greek cuisine, so you will have the opportunity to try moussaka, pastitsio, souvlaki, etc.

You will be asked to use local public transportation approximately 5-6 times during your stay in Eani in order to move to Kozani. The cost is around 5€ both ways each time (meaning maximum 30€ in total) and you should cover this cost from the pocket money that you will receive.

The volunteers have insurance during their stay in Greece through the European Solidarity Corps. After they accept the offer from the page, they receive an e-mail from Henner insurance.
