workcamp Green Baikal
Posted May 13th, 2012 - 7:22 pm by from Moscow, Russia (Permalink)
Have you ever heard about the deepest lake on the planet? Either it seems to be 25 million years or even old! And the translations of its name from different languages could be „natural lake“, or „rich lake“.

Yes, you are definitely right! All these sentences are about Baikal!

So...

if you are full of energy and desire to be useful

if you want to visit the biggest country and to see the eighth miracle of the Earth

if you are friendly, open-minded and creative

if you want to meet new friends from all parts of the world

if you want to know more about agriculture and etno-tourism

if you want to see the real rural life in Russian village and discover the differents in traditions

and customs in multicultural country

and if you want to become a mighty-mighty volunteer with a lot of impressions and emotions

BAIKAL WANTS YOU! :)

What we are going to do?

Minor repairs and decorating of the old village house (take off old wallpapers whitewashing the ceiling and walls). Maintainance of the area around the house (cleaning, zoning of the territory). Taking apart old and decrepit buildings. Organising clean ups with locals

Where:

Tanhoy station on the world famous Siberian Railway (also it would be the great opportunity to see it and to feel the atmosphere of Russian Nature)

and finally WHEN
