    We are looking for 1 to 3 volunteers to help us out. We will work together 5 days a week starting each day at 9h, after having breakfast together. Lunch will be provided, dinner we will prepare together when possible, but you can also be on your own in the evenings when our schedules are too busy. We expect volunteers to tidy up after themselves. Your free time is your own. Ghent is a vibrant city with lots going on, we are situated not so far from the centre.
