WORK
The municipality of Exomvourgo has an extended network of footpaths, spreading in a wide area, that have been signalled and chart – mapped by the Cyclades prefecture and the Municipality. Local and tourists ramblers often wander in this footpaths’ network for the extra reason that, due to the landscape, it is not possible, in most cases, to create routes for vehicles. Volunteers will work in order to clean and open some of the most important footpaths of the area of Falatado.
ACCOMMODATION & FOOD
Volunteers will be accommodated in Exomvourgo Primary school. There are toilets, showers (no hot water) and a kitchen. Sleeping bag and carry mat are necessary. Two of the group, everyday in shifts, will be responsible for maintaining the group’s accommodation place clean, as well as for the preparation of all the meals of the day for the rest of the group, with supplies that they will provide themselves from stores around the area.
LOCATION
The island “not made by human hand’’, as characterised by the philosopher Cornelius Kastoriades, is one of the North Cyclades. Its surface covers about 195 m2 and it is smaller than Naxos and Andros. The Municipality of Exomvourgo has 35 villages, 30 of them are traditional and 5 onshore; covers the 2/3 of the island. It is the less developed area concerning tourism on the island; it is a mainly agricultural and semi – mountainous area, but it is the part of the island with the most beautiful sites, with inhabitants who like keeping traditions and customs. The structured scenery with the 30 traditional dorps, the dovecotes, the culverts, the fountains, the mils, the small chapels, the museums compose a site of great interest for the sight-seer tourist and a lovely and sacred place for the local inhabitants. Τhis workcamp will take place in Falatado, one of the oldest villages on the island. The marble made church of Saint John is a true adornment for the village. Lot of old wine presses are preserved in the village as well as a Folklore Museum.
LEISURE TIME
In their free time, participants will have the opportunity to get in touch with the everyday life of the village; they may attend events organised by the authorities during the period of their stay (concerts, performances, etc.) and communicate with locals and tourists. Volunteers will discuss their free time activities with their camp leaders; together they are going to organise excursions and visits around the area.
