Accommodation and Food

The volunteers will stay in a structure in the centre of the town which will be

used as a dormitory. Shared rooms, warm showers and toilets are provided. The accommodation has also a big and cosy garden with a nice view of the town. The

meals will be prepared together as they are part of the community life. It would be nice if you could bring typical recipes from home in order to share the preparation of food from all over the world. For this purpose, one night will be organized an intercultural dinner in which you can share with others a piece of your home.

Location & Leisure

Palazzolo sull’Oglio is a town of about 20. 000 inhabitants on the banks of the

river Oglio, in the province of Brescia, Lombardy. It takes an hour to Milan, 2 hours to Venice, 40 minutes to Lake Garda and 20 minutes to Lake Iseo and it is really close to “Franciacorta”, an area well-known for its high-quality wines. The territory of the city is full of history: in the town you can find ancient churches, frescoes, palaces, nineteenthcentury villas and a medieval castle with the “Torre del Popolo”, the highest roundbased tower in Italy, standing at 97 meters high. Palazzolo sull’Oglio also offers large green areas: a big park along the river and the villas’ gardens, where the project is located. The town is close to the hills at the base of the Alps and near the big lakes of Northern Italy. Trains and buses are an easy way to discover the territory. All the facilities you need are available in the town: stores, banks, the municipal swimming pool and a great choice of pubs, restaurants and cafes.
