Day 1: Arrival in Swakopmund
You should arrive in the coastal town of Swakopmund on the Sunday before the start of your volunteer project. This will ensure that you are at the Al La Mer Guesthouse in time for the introductory briefing in the early evening. This briefing is your chance to meet the EHRA team and get an overview of the upcoming activities and program schedule.
Travel to Swakopmund is straightforward. EHRA will be happy to organize a convenient door-to-door service from the airport directly to your accommodation - easy and safe...
The socialbnb idea
Support the region you are traveling to, as the price you pay is directly benefitting the local project.
