Life Beyond the School🌞

Volunteers enjoying free time together near the water at Lindersvold

When the volunteers are not busy at school studying or working on projects, there is plenty of time to enjoy the beautiful surroundings and simply relax together. 🌿

Two of our favourite places to spend our free time are the fjord, just a 10-minute walk from the school, and the sandy beach, located about 4 km away. Whether it’s a quick walk after a busy day, a bike ride all together, a swim, exploring the fjord on a paddleboard, a picnic, or simply enjoying the view, these places have quickly become part of our everyday life here. 🌊☀️

The photos give a little glimpse into what life looks like outside the school. Discovering the area, spending time together, and making the most of our free time.

Want More Than Just a Volunteer Placement?

The Volunteer for Change programme is also about the life you build around the work: living and learning together, sharing everyday experiences, exploring new places and becoming part of a community before taking that experience into an international project. If that sounds like the kind of journey you are looking for, take a closer look at how the programme works.
