  Description

  My name is Janna and I have helped start a foundation that has planted 155 Coconut Palm trees in our beach and on some of the town streets. We want to plant 500 more this year & have an event once a month during surf season (Jan-April) with the locals to beautify different areas in town that you will help prep for each month. I also have projects around the house, that can include making vegan food, basic house maintenance, and taking care of animals. If you are a decent photographer or good with promo we can use some help with promotions too.

  You will directly be working with the residents and locals of the town building on a new project. Spanish is helpful and you will be able to practice talking directly to locals if you can speak Spanish a bit already. Our town of Canoa is a great place to learn to surf or develop as a better surfer. You will learn how to organize events in South America, planting coconut palm trees, and enjoy our beach town. You will also have some free meals at different restaurants to use up while you are with us and 3 free yoga classes!
