Volunteer in Bulgaria – help create a forest festival for youth, connection, and growth ðŸŒŋ

Would you like to spend part of your summer immersed in nature, surrounded by oaks, music, and meaningful conversations? Gora Osaznanie is calling for volunteers to help prepare for the Awareness Festival 2025 in the forest village of Krusha, near Varna and the Black Sea. This unique space hosts events, workshops, and educational gatherings focused on conscious living and youth empowerment.

You’ll be part of a community of changemakers, helping to set up the space, cook, decorate, and mentor Bulgarian teenagers from language high schools. No teaching experience is required — just presence, warmth, and a desire to connect.

What to expect

This is more than a volunteer job — it’s a chance to live in rhythm with the forest and support something that matters. You’ll stay in a tent (your own or shared), eat healthy home-cooked meals, and take part in daily group activities like yoga, meditation, and sound therapy. Evenings are spent around the fire, sharing music and stories.

You’ll also help facilitate cultural exchange through simple conversations — English, French, Spanish, or German all welcome.
