Region: Donegal

Family of three, mother and two sons. We live in a rural setting, close to Letterkenny and Derry surrounded by farmland and close to Lough Swilly. We have a large garden and plenty of room to host. You would have your own room and ideally blend into our fairly simple lifestyle. As i said we are a family of three, ! am 46, and my sons are 10 and 8 years, they live here most of the time but spend every other weekends with their dad. Interaction and good communication skills with kids would be an advantage. We have 2 cats so if your allergic it wouldn't work out and they have the run of the house also. I spent most of last year and so far this one too completing the renovations and extention to my home, so there are still little jobs to get done. I am an easy going very stable type of person, what you see is what you get, and i enjoy meeting new people. I have travelled some and lived in other countries also .so fairly wordly. If you are looking for somewhere to hang out for a while in a fresh and interesting location and have a good attitude towards work and communication then i think we should appeal. I trained as a ceramacist and was successfull with my own work, selling to stores all over ireland and USA, i put it on hold when i had my second son but now i am looking to get back to it. I have a studio at the back of my house why i plan to extend, so hopefully i will have a fully equiped ceramic studio on site also before the end of 2011. I am currently studying spanish and would like very much to develope my language skill, i can read spanish better than i can speak it, having someone to practice with eso seria fantastico.!!Language exchange is one of my main attractions for hosting. Gracias. Maria.

Region: Belize Jungle

We run is a remote site located in the Belizean jungle in the foothills of the Mountain Pine Ridge. Our primary mission here is catering to our campers who are primarily backpackers traveling around Central and South America . Additionally, we operate a tropical plant and palm nursery as well as a citrus grove. Our volunteers assist in those endeavors. Volunteers work in a beautiful environment and enjoy discounted pricing on trips to amazing waterfalls, swimming holes, caves and canoeing. We ask for a minimum commitment of 30 days. Your time at the Outpost usually consists of 5- 6 hour workdays and helping with evening meal preparations/cleanup in the course of a 6 day workweek. We encourage longer stays and our longer term volunteers may enjoy periodic additional days off as well as more time in nearby San Ignacio. The work in Barton Creek includes landscaping, nursery work with our tropical flowers and palms, assisting visiting campers in various capacities, lots of general cleaning, building & equipment maintenance and a fair share of kitchen work. We sometimes have special projects like trail building, construction and selling at the local market. Our volunteers work hard and we appreciate an ongoing positive attitude. The Outpost is in a remote location and working with us is not for everyone. Some people fit with us better than others and there are times when this is obvious in the first few days and we release volunteers from their commitment and they move along. While we try to put our volunteers in situations that make the best use of their skill sets our primary goal is to accomplish our daily mission with the people we have helping us. Additionally, we are a family run business with our children around all the time so potential volunteers should be comfortable dealing with them on a daily basis. Sleeping arrangements usually are a mattress and sleeping bag in our communal loft area.
