COSTS AND REIMBURSEMENT

The training will happen in Bergolo, a calm village of 50 inhabitants located on the hills of Piedmont.
Accommodation is 'Alveare hostel (meaning "The Hive"); it comprises a dining area; bedrooms with 2 - 3 beds; bathrooms shared by 2-3 people; a kitchen for groups and a large terrace overlooking the hills.

Three meals per day and coffee breaks will be arranged during the program in the accommodation.
If you prefer, you can choose to be accommodated alone in a tent in the camping which is 300 meters far from the hostel, we can provide you camping mattress, sleeping bag and pillow. The camping has 6 toilets and 6 showers.
As a group, we will be responsible for the caring and cleaning of the spaces that we will be using, to keep a functional and harmonious environment.
Participants will take part in simple house duties to make the whole accommodation system work (preparing coffee breaks, arranging and cleaning the dining area, cleaning the common spaces and their own rooms etc.) this will happen in small groups with a duties rotation system.
It is an educational choice: we believe that it is relevant to learn to take care of our own needs as a group. In case you are searching for an experience where somebody else is cleaning for you or serving you, this Training Course is not suitable for you.

The bus we arranged will stop in 3 main meeting points (+1 for Italians), you have to reach one of them:
