2 SEEDS 005.Photo Marathon & Winter Lights festival KEY INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR CAMP volunteers Cash (EUR or ISK) Meeting point and time: Hverfisgata 92b, 17:00 (5:00 pm) Emergency contacts: Oscar: (+354) Anna: (+354) Brief camp description This is the tenth year that SEEDS organizes series of International Photo marathons! Throughout the year participants from all over the world come to Iceland for an intensive Photo marathon project. SEEDS coordinators work with the participants to develop their unique photographic voice through workshops and feedback sessions on technical settings, compositional considerations as well as developing conceptual frameworks which progress the participants individual style. When the workshop ends, we gather as a group to select some of our best pictures from the trip and prepare those images for an informal group exhibition locally. While learning more about photography the participants explore Icelandic culture by taking part in it, capturing it and also by working for the City of Reykjavik. One of our objectives is to deliver messages and draw the attention to the local population through pictures and photos made during the camp. Participants should arrive ready to shoot and should bring with them their own digital cameras, lenses and laptops if possible. Volunteers should be prepared for walking and visually exploring the city streets and working within a flexible time schedule. Participants will be photographing in their free time outside of workshop hours with images to be discussed at group feedback sessions. Please note that this project is more of a learning/sharing camp and not a regular work camp; we may be able to organize some outdoor voluntary service but it depends on our partners and weather conditions. The Winter Lights Festival is an annual event that stimulates the city life in the midwinter. The Festival celebrates both the winter world and the growing light after a long period of darkness. The program is a mixture of art and industry, environment and history, sports and culture. The festival provides entertainment for Reykjavík s locals and guests alike. More information at Winter Lights Festival is an event to be enjoyed by all and all events are free of charge. SEEDS will not be able to give away any passes for the festival, there are however a lot of free events all around town to take advantage of. SEEDS also organises excursions outside of the city, which gives the chance to see more of what this beautiful country has to offer at a discounted price.

3 Meeting point TIME: 5:00 pm (17:00 hours) on Saturday, January 28 th, LOCATION: Meeting point will be at SEEDS accommodation in Hverfisgata: Address: Hverfisgata 92b, 101 Reykjavík. More details, click here or at Extras / Special Remarks: Participation fee EUR 220 (Euros). Please note that these fees are to be paid to SEEDS on arrival in either Euros or Icelandic krónas. Please be aware that SEEDS participation fees are different from the fees charged by your sending organisation and the SEEDS participation fees are collected in Iceland on the first day of the camp. If you prefer to transfer the fees to SEEDS, please let us know in advance and we can send you our bank account details. Mind you that we do not accept payments with credit or debit cards.

Weather in Iceland is unpredictable and it can be cold or rainy. Please bring warm winter clothes, overcoats, scarves, gloves and hats as part of the project takes place outside. Location Reykjavik is a dynamic, modern city which lives in harmony with beautiful nature, using renewable energy sources - geothermal power and glacial rivers. The world s northernmost capital bridges the Atlantic, between Europe and North America. Reykjavík is spread across a peninsula with a panoramic view of the mountains and the Atlantic Ocean on almost all sides. Reykjavik is often called the nightlife capital of the north. But there is more to Reykjavík than pubs and clubs. Reykjavík also gathers the most interesting of Icelandic culture. It is an incubator of new ideas and styles, which often indicates new global trends. It is an International city with a lively Cosmopolitan cultural scene surrounded with beautiful nature. In the area closer than 100 Km from Reykjavík, there are several spectacular waterfalls, geysers, impressive coastline and the well-known geothermal Blue Lagoon spa to visit.

Please note that SEEDS provides food and accommodation for our participants from the evening of the first day of the camp until the morning of the last day of their camps. Accommodation before / after the camp SEEDS can organise a dormitory sleeping bag accommodation in Reykjavík for stays before or after the camp. The building is located in downtown Reykjavík. Volunteers have access to kitchen and washing machine facilities. The cost per night is 25. This fee does not cover any food; it covers only the sleeping accommodation. The accommodation fees will be collected on the first day of your camp at the meeting point. If you decide to stay longer than originally planned, please inform the accommodation manager. If you want to reserve accommodation for stays before and/or after your project, please inform us in advance as places are limited.

5 How to get there - to Reykjavik from the KEF International airport. The cheapest way is to take the Flybus from Reykjavík Excursions; since SEEDS volunteers get a discounted ticket (50% off) when showing the voucher below completed. If you want to have the discounted price you need to buy your tickets at the Flybus office (sales counter) at the Keflavík Airport arrivals terminal, showing the completed voucher. Tickets cannot be bought on the bus. Tickets can be bought online before departure but you will not get the discount. See for more information and details. You can pay for the tickets in cash in ISK, Euros or you can use your debit or credit card. Buses leaves from the airport 35-40mins after each flight has landed, so even if you are travelling late at night, or your plane is delayed you will be able to catch this bus to Reykjavík. The journey from the airport to the bus station in Reykjavík takes around 45 minutes. Passengers are dropped off either at BSÍ bus station (Flybus) or at a hotel, hostel or guesthouse in Reykjavík city centre if you buy the additional service (Flybus+). If you are staying at SEEDS accommodation in Hverfisgata 92b, we recommend you to ask for drop-off at the Fosshotel Baron (or Baron Hotel) at Baronsstigur 2-4. SEEDS accommodation is few steps away. To see more details, please read : The bus will most likely drop you off in front of the Fosshotel Baron at the corner of Barónsstígur and Skúlagata; you will need to walk up Barónsstígur to Hverfisgata (there is a convenience store there), then cross over the street and walk westwards (to your right) for about 20 meters, the house is located at Hverfisgata 92b, on the backyard. If you take the additional shuttle service (Flybus+), please let the person know in the airport when you are buying the ticket. If you buy the bus only to the BSI station it is a bit cheaper but you may have to walk to SEEDS accommodation. You can pay for the bus in cash in ISK, Euros or you can use your debit or credit card. For more details about getting to Iceland please read the Travel to Iceland section of the SEEDS WORKCAMPS GENERAL INFORMATION SHEET Free time Volunteers will have some days-off during the camp: either during the weekend and or on the usual working days, Monday to Friday, depending on the camp schedule and activities. If you wish to do an activity independently of the group, you must discuss it with the camp leader and s/he must be fully aware of your plans. Your independence will be respected during the camp but the camp leader has the ultimate responsibility for you and your safety while on our camp in Iceland (they will have to sort out the problems if you get lost or injured). Do not forget our leaders are volunteers like you, so try to co-operate with them at work and during free time activities. They are not fully responsible for organising your free time and they hope for your ideas and contributions. Excursions (Blue Lagoon, Golden Circle, South Shore, Northern Lights) can be arranged at discount fares. Weather in Iceland is unpredictable and it can be cold or rainy. Please bring warm winter clothes, overcoats, scarves, gloves and hats as part of the project takes place outside.
