We are already looking for volunteers who may want to join us for next summer 2012.

The season goes from beginning of May until end of September.

Volunteers at Shambala work 5 hours per day, and in exchange get food and accomodation and the possibility to participate on retreats in your spare time. Accomodation for volunteers is in comfortable doorms, sharing amongst four people of the same gender.

We require the following helpers for 2012:

Volunteer Leaders: We need volunteers who are friendly, warm and love being with people to look after the rest of our lovely volunteer team. This means making sure that they are happy in their duties and that they feel supported and at home during their stay. It will also mean arranging group activities with our help.

Kitchen Supervisors: We need poeple who feel comfortable in the kitchen, who are not afraid of cooking for large numbers of people and who are good at directing others. We will also help you create the menu and we will be there for support along the way.

Cooks: We are looking for volunteers who like being in the kitchen. Great if you already have some experience in cooking vegetarian food, baking bread and cakes, etc

General Cleaning Angels: We need people who are happy doing some surface cleaning and beautifying the environment by painting, doing the laungry, picking flowers, decorating, etc

Gardeners: We are looking for volunteers that like to work outdoors cutting the loan, weeding the garden, planting seeds, watering the plants, etc

Creatives: We are looking for volunteers who have a flare for photography and video to do small reportages of the summer to post on our website.

Residency: If you would like to stay at Shambala for a long period of time this summer and wish to be a part-time volunteer (2,5 hours) you can do so for 5000kr per month including food and twin-shared accomodation. This also gives you some access to the courses during your spare time.

The maximum time that full-time (5 hours) volunteers can stay at Shambala is 3 weeks. We prefer volunteers of more than 25 years of age.

If you would like to join us next year, send us an email and your availability at

Thank you for your help!
