Powered by heat from the earth below, with ever-changing weather sweeping across the landscape, its natural features are matched by the energy of its residents. Think of the qualities of a great city - fun, culture, nature, clean air - and Reykjavik has them in spades. All the advantages of a modern, forward-looking society are complemented by the beautiful natural setting. In a country of only just over 300,000 people, the Reykjavik Capital Area has a population of about 200,000. However, since it s the only major city in the country, Reykjavik has a lot of the amenities that you would only expect to find in a much larger center elsewhere in the world. Reykjavik is the world s northernmost capital city and is cantered on the Seltjarnarnes Peninsula. Come at the right time of year, and in favorable conditions you will see the city s skyline silhouetted against the glowing, shimmering curtain of the aurora borealis, also known as the northern lights. Reykjavik is framed by the majestic Mt. Esja and the blue waters of Faxafloi Bay to the north, while rugged lava-fields spread to the southeast. On a clear sunny day, the Snaefellsjökull glacier glitters on the western horizon like a crystal. Work: The Winter Renovation camp in Reykjavik has two major activities. WF Iceland is currently renovating houses downtown Reykjavik where our volunteers are living and working. The organization is also renovating an old farm 30 km away from the capital city. Since the creation of Worldwide Friends, the organization has been looking for the opportunity to set up a project to renovate and work in old Icelandic farm. The idea of renovating old spaces in the country side of Iceland and especially in areas where there isn t much population is one of the best ideas our organization could develop. In one hand we have the opportunity of give life to an empty and old space, on the other hand we are bringing life back to the area with the spirit and the ideas of International volunteers which will be very much welcomed by the local community. The volunteers will help us with the renovation in Reykjavik and the farm, the work depends on the skills of each volunteer. Leisure: Worldwide Friends volunteers have free access to the local geothermal-heated swimming pools in Reykjavik. Traditionally, natural pools have played an important social role in Icelandic culture. Most Icelandic pools offer indoor and outdoor swimming, as well as hot tubs and saunas or steam rooms. On weekends, the central location of the accommodations is ideal for enjoying Reykjavik s amazing nightlife, which is worldrenowned for its wide array of bars, clubs, and concerts. WF Iceland will also organise reasonably-priced weekend excursions to some of the most popular, beautiful areas and natural wonders that Iceland has to offer. Excursions include unique Icelandic sights such as glacial lagoons, waterfalls, volcanic and geothermal areas, glaciers, geysirs, lava forests, hot-springs, rhyolite mountain ranges, steam-vents, or even icebergs. Accommodation and Food: Worldwide Friends volunteers stay in one of several shared houses offering basic sleeping and cooking facilities in the heart of historical downtown Reykjavik. Volunteers need to bring their own sleeping bag and towels, but mattresses and bed linens are provided. Wireless internet access is provided free of charge, and volunteers also have free access to shared desktop computers in communal areas. The accommodation provided by Worldwide Friends Iceland for volunteers in Reykjavik is located within short walking distance of many urban amenities, including: banks, pharmacies, supermarkets, public swimming pools, restaurants, cafes, libraries, theatres, shops, museums, and bus stations. Food is included for the duration of the workcamp, however everyone is expected to do their fair share of the cooking and cleaning. Since it is always nice to try new and different dishes, volunteers are encouraged to bring along their favorite recipes from home! Terminal: Flights arrive at Keflavik International Airport (KEF), just south of Reykjavik, Iceland Additional Information: There is an extra participation fee of 180,- Euro for this workcamp. 5

Think of the qualities of a great city - fun, space, clean air, nature, culture - and Reykjavik has them in spades. Reykjavik offers both the features of a modern and innovative society and the marvellous traits of a unique natural landscape. The population of the Reykjavik Area is about 200,000. Reykjavik is spread across a peninsula offering a panoramic view of the mountains and the Atlantic Ocean from nearly every part of the city. In the summer, you can sit by the harbour at midnight and watch the sun dip slightly below the horizon before it makes its way up again. The world s northernmost capital is framed by the majestic Mt. Esja, which keeps a watchful eye on the city, and the blue waters of Faxafloi Bay. On a sunny day, the mystical Snaefellsjokull glacier towers over the western horizon, while mountainous moonscapes spread to the southeast. Work: Every year WF Iceland is hosting hundreds of international volunteers participating in projects all round the island. WF Iceland publishes a magazine called UNA where people can read about the life of the organization and nowadays life in Reykjavik. In the beginning of the project volunteers will receive an introduction about the tasks - afterwards we will choose a topic for the newsletter. This is a great opportunity to step into different projects and to get to know Reykjavik in a better way. The group will take photos and make videos and interviews with volunteers, local hosts and people living in the area. The outcome will be published in the UNA WF magazine. At the end of the project we will prepare the final version of the magazine and publish it online.

Work: The purpose of this camp is to involve young international volunteers in a group experience where they can improve their communication and visual arts skills by capturing some memories in an unforgettable way using photographs and videos. Volunteers will put into action ideas about photography from capture to finished image. In this camp, volunteers learn together from each other how to better express their vision and how to digitally edit images to highlight the same qualities that drew them to the scene to begin with. Volunteers will work on different themes, such as landscape, fishermen s life, light and colour, local lifestyle etc. In the evenings the volunteers will gather together to share photos and the camp will culminate in a photo exhibition. This work camp is a way to enjoy an amazing time in Iceland with other international volunteers and to have an incredible experience where participants share their knowledge on photography with each other while they are exploring creativity, environmental issues and intercultural learning. So don t worry if you re not an experienced photographer, because the workcamp doesn t require advanced knowledge and it isn t a competition. Please note that volunteers need to bring their own cameras to the workcamp. The volunteers should also keep in mind that the leaders are not professional photographers.

This friendly little community sits on top of a highly active geothermal field, which provides heat for hundreds of greenhouses where fruit, flowers and vegetables are produced throughout the year. Even bananas grow in these greenhouses! The name Hveragerði means hot springs garden. Geothermal energy is Hveragerði s lifeblood, and you probably won t find such a natural wonder in the middle of a populated area anywhere else in the world. Nearby you will find an even more geothermally active site: Gufudalur, the lovely Steam Valley behind the town. This whole valley is full of hot springs, geysers, mud pots, fumaroles and steaming vents. Our host is the Rehabilitation and Health Clinic, which is a part of the Natural Health Association of Iceland. Every year approximately 2,000 patients and other guests enjoy their diverse rehabilitation programs, which are focused on an approach that builds self-confidence and personal responsibility for the patients own health. The Clinic has earned a solid reputation, both in Iceland and internationally, since its foundation in 1955 for personal and effective care of patients. It is the oldest and one of the two most important rehabilitation clinics in Iceland. Work: The Natural Health Association has a horticultural and environmental department, including forestry, gardening, and greenhouses, which is where Worldwide Friends volunteers work most of the time. The nature of the work depends largely on weather conditions, which can change quickly. Volunteers should bring clothes appropriate for outdoor work, but also clothes for working inside the warm greenhouses. Leisure: Worldwide Friends volunteers have free access to the local geothermally-heated swimming pools. Traditionally, natural pools have played an important social role in Icelandic culture. Most Icelandic pools offer indoor and outdoor swimming, as well as hot tubs and saunas or steam rooms. Hveragerði is known for having great areas for hiking, including a river heated by hot springs. WF Iceland will also organise reasonably-priced weekend excursions to some of the most popular, beautiful areas and natural wonders that Iceland has to offer. Excursions include unique Icelandic sights such as glacial lagoons, waterfalls, volcanic and geothermal areas, glaciers, geysirs, lava forests, hot-springs, rhyolite mountain ranges, steam-vents, or even icebergs. Accommodation and Food: Worldwide Friends volunteers stay in a fully equipped bungalow consisting of several double rooms. Volunteers need to bring their own sleeping bag, but mattresses are provided. Free wireless internet is available during evening hours, but volunteers need to bring their own laptops if they would like to connect to it. All meals are provided and cooked by our hosts, the Rehabilitation and Health Clinic. The menu for the project is primarily vegetarian, but two times a week it includes locally-caught fish. The food at the Rehabilitation and Health Clinic is known throughout Iceland for its high quality. Language: A basic knowledge of English is required for this workcamp. Terminal: Flights arrive at Keflavik International Airport (KEF), just south of Reykjavik, Iceland. WF Iceland will offer a minibus trip from Reykjavik to Hveragerdi for a fair price.

WF Iceland will offer a minibus tri p from Reykjavik to Eskifjörður for a fair price going through the North to the East of the island. After the camp we will also offer for a fair price a trip from the workcamp place to Reykjavik through the east and south of Iceland. This trip includes unique Icelandic sights such as glacial lagoons, waterfalls, volcanic and geothermal areas, glaciers, geysirs, lava forests, hot-springs, rhyolite mountain ranges, steam-vents, or even icebergs. If you join our minibus both ways than you will go all around the island. Additional Information: There is an Extra participation fee of 200,- Euro for this workcamp. WF139 East of Iceland - close to nature 21/04 03/05 ENVI / MANU 8 vol WF140 East of Iceland - close to nature 02/05 14/05 ENVI / MANU 8 vol Project and location: Scoured by Ice Age glaciers, the dramatic east coast boasts long, narrow fjords with steep sides and jagged peaks which contrast with inland fertile farmlands. Natural harbours mean picture-postcard fishing villages and seemingly never-ending roads cross the region, providing beautiful sweeping views. Fjarðabyggð" is an association of villages in the Eastern fjords of Iceland. It includes the towns of Eskifjörður, Fáskrúðsfjörður, Mjóifjörður, Neskaupstaður, Reyðarfjörður and Stöðvarfjörður, all tiny fishing villages with steep mountains towering just behind the houses. In this area you will see some of the features that make Iceland a unique place in the world: spectacular fjords with a rich sea life, a great variety of birdlife, and countless breathtaking hiking paths. You will explore the area during your stay in the east. Work: Most of the work will consist of cleaning and beautifying the towns and the surrounding area. We will also do some other environmental tasks for example clean the coastline, plant trees or build hiking paths. Our work will also depend on weather conditions and that s why we have to be flexible. Please keep in mind that the work might be physically hard and you should be prepared for unfriendly weather, even though, hopefully, it will be nice most of the time. This is a perfect camp for people who like outdoor work and physical challenges. Leisure time: Worldwide Friends volunteers have free access to the local geothermally-heated swimming pool in Eskifjörður. Traditionally, natural pools have played an important social role in Icelandic culture. Most Icelandic pools offer indoor and outdoor swimming, as well as hot tubs and saunas or steam rooms. Accommodation and food: In a community centre called Knellan which is located in Eskifjordur. Mattresses will be provided and everyone is asked to bring his/her own warm sleeping bag. We will have access to showers at the local swimming pool and sports centre. The food will be supplied for the duration of the work camp and everyone is expected to do his/her fair share of the cooking/cleaning. It would be nice to try new and different dishes, so please remember to bring along recipes from your own countries. Language: The language of the camp is English. Terminal: Intl. Airport: Keflavík (KEF), Reykjavík. The closest national airport to the camp site is Egilsstaðir airport which is 40 km away from the project s site. Flights arrive at Keflavik International Airport (KEF), just south of Reykjavik, Iceland. WF Iceland will offer a minibus tri p from Reykjavik to Eskifjörður for a fair price going through the North to the East of the island.

15 15 Additional Information: There is an extra participation fee of 150,- Euro for this workcamp. Practical information about Veraldarvinir Worldwide Friends Iceland Veraldarvinir - Worldwide Friends (WF Iceland) was fo unded in 2001 as a non-profit, non-governmental organization promoting peace, friendship and international understanding. We host short-term voluntary work camps, mid and long-term voluntary projects (3-12 months), seminars (suitable for both young people and adults), youth exchanges, educational programmes and campaigns in Iceland. We also send abroad Icelandic volunteers who wish to have similar experiences. We also host and send volunteers through the Youth in action programme - our EI numbers are 2009 ISL 6 and 2011 ISL - 4 Veraldarvinir/WF Iceland aims at: Promoting inter-cultural learning, exchange and awareness Preserving Icelandic nature and raising awareness about environmental issues Promoting voluntary work and a culture of volunteering 15
16 16 General information about our International Workcamps: Age limit: In general, volunteers should be at least 18 years old. There are no maximum age limits in the majority of our workcamps. Work: Workcamps typically last 12 to 14 days. Working hours are usually about hours a week (five to seven hours a day, five days a week). Any exceptions will be noted in the project descriptions. Accommodation: In Reykjavik, WF Iceland provides several shared flats and houses located in the heart of the capital for accommodations. Elsewhere in Iceland, volunteers stay at local community centres, schools, Youth Centres or other houses owned by the communities. The accommodations offer basic sleeping and cooking facilities, and include a shared kitchen and bathroom. In some cases volunteers have to take a shower at the local swimming pool, where the organization has a free access. Food: Food will be provided, however volunteers are expected to do their fair share of the cooking and cleaning. Camp Language: English is the language spoken in our camps. Volunteers are required to have at least a basic knowledge of the English language. Should the language requirements be higher, this will be specified in the workcamp description. Camp Leaders: There are always one or more leaders for each camp, depending on the size of the group. Leaders represent the link between the hosting community and the group of volunteers. They coordinate the work, organize free time activities, and plan excursions, shopping, and cooking sessions. Apart from these additional responsibilities, they are equal to the other volunteers. Most of our camp leaders are from other countries, and we are very open minded in hosting international leaders from other organizations. Extra Participation Fee: This year we are charging an extra participation fee for all of our camps. Volunteers are expected to pay the workcamp fee in cash (EUR, USD or Icelandic Krona) upon their arrival to the camp. WF Iceland charges a participation fee for the following reasons: a. Lack of support from the government and other sources b. In some of our workcamps WF itself has to supply food which is quite expensive in Iceland compared to other European countries c. In most of our workcamps located in Reykjavik, WF itself has to cover both food and accommodation costs d. Most of our partner organizations in other countries cover their administration costs through the fees they charge to the volunteers they send abroad. We do not send enough volunteers abroad in order to cover our administrative expenses so we need to charge a participation fee from the volunteers we receive Insurance: Veraldarvinir provides a third part liability during the duration of the camp. WF Iceland does not provide volunteers with a medical insurance. Therefore, we strongly recommend that the volunteers purchase insurance for their stay here in Iceland. European volunteers should bring their European Health Cards (former E111). Some practical matters We highly recommend that volunteers bring a sleeping bag, basic work clothes, hiking boots, and swimming suits, as well as warm and waterproof clothes. Volunteers are also encouraged to bring information about their country such as photos, music, songbooks, games, or musical instruments. Volunteers with special needs: Our camps are open to everyone. If you have volunteers with special needs, please contact us. We will do our very best to find a way to host them. Information Sheets We will send out detailed information sheets with practical information and camp details the same day we accept the volunteers. All our information sheets are also available online. Our website: We encourage all our partners and volunteers to check out our website for more information about our projects. There you will find more detailed information, videos and photos from our workcamps. 16
17 17 Arrival and departure The first day of the camp is arrival day and the last day of the camp is a departure day. If the camp is in the North, East or West of Iceland we recommend strongly to the volunteers to arrive the day before the camp starts and departure the day after it ends. If the camp is in Reykjavik it is enough to arrive the first day of the camp and depart the day that the camp ends. Getting to the campsite: Iceland s public transportation is expensive and not very efficient. We will arrange a minibus trip from Reykjavik to most of our workcamp locations outside of Reykjavik. The participants can choose the minibus option to reach the workcamp location or traveling independently using public transport (e.g. buses, flights). The minibus fee will be published in the information sheet. However, beware that travelling with our minibus is usually the most convenient option. We would like to remind you that the shared minibus to the workcamp place is leaving the first day of the workcamp in the morning and comes back to Reykjavik on the last day of the workcamp late in the evening. 17
