Up to 2,000 children and adults from many nations and cultures come to Salecina every year. There are no hired janitorial and cooking personnel in Salecina, it is the guests themselves who give each other a treat by what we call "mutual self-servicing". Everyone volunteers to their liking to take turns e.g. with cooking, laying the table, washing the dishes, cleaning, chopping wood if you like etc. Working together is also an invitation to get to know each other easily, enjoying tasty meals around large tables, having stimulating conversations in the lovely sunshine outside or next to the inside fireplace.

Having dinner together is one of the highlights of our Salecina days. A volunteer group of guests will have prepared the meal for you, respecting regional traditions and seasonal rhythms. The planning of the weekly menu is done by interested guests on Sunday evenings.

After dinner, all guests join for coordinating the next day, volunteering for the mutual self-services, maybe making appointments for a hike, exchanging views and news, whatever comes up and is to your liking, maybe you feel like retreating to the cosy library for the remaining hours of your day (books in English available).
