  [ WE ARE REPLYING :) ]
  
  Hello, hello! Welcome to our profile. We are a little family of 4: my two kids, our dog and myself. We have rolled up our sleeves and embarked on an adventure to restore our family project; an eco-lodge. The idea is to create a space where people can come to disconnect for a while from the tribulations of everyday life, and simply enjoy the charm that nature has to offer.
  
  We want to create a type of sanctuary, both for wildlife and for our guests.
  
  We had started this journey back in 2021, but unfortunately due to a tropical storm, our efforts were washed away as the property had been left in a very bad state. Nevertheless, adversity has come baring new opportunities!
  
  Keep in mind, this is a really rustic place, tucked in a small town in Guanacaste! We may not be a 5-star hotel at the moment, but we certainly have both the heart and spirit!

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  You will be living an authentic rustic experience in the Costa Rican countryside. Our workawayers will have the opportunity to visit several of the most beautiful beaches in our country, as well as being able to visit several nature reserves! Here, we not only offer adventure, but also an opportunity to learn about hospitality, green lifestyles, and green foundations.
  
  We provide a space full of different flora and fauna. Here you will be able to meet different animals such as monkeys, parakeets, raccoons, as well as a great variety of small insects and much more–counting the stray dogs and cats that we take care of!
  
  On the other hand, Cuajiniquil is an excellent place to practice your Spanish, as not many speak English. And if what you are looking for is to learn Spanish, no problem, my mother is a teacher!

  Arbeit

  Note: We require a minimum 2 week commitment.
  
  We are looking to make big changes and restore this beautiful place, so energy and enthusiasm is a must!
  
  We need passion, willingness, creativity and a love for nature. We are looking for people with strong commitment, pro-activity, who have had at least some experience in maintenance and/or management in general, or who are willing to learn about it.
  
  Day-to-day tasks consist of gardening, construction projects, painting, managing potential guests, cleaning, and laundry. These will not necessarily be done every day.
  
  Other important qualities to volunteer with us are:
  
  –Must speak either English or Spanish.
  –Teamwork.
  –A sense of adventure :D

  Unterkunft

  It is likely that you will be sharing accommodation with other potential volunteers if there is high occupancy. This space features 3 bunk beds and 2 single beds, a shared bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen (meals will not be provided) for your use. It is possible for you to have your own room should there be minimum occupancy.
  
  In your spare time, you will be able to make use of all that the property has to offer–public areas, swimming pool (if it's available) and terrace.
  
  Unfortunately, we do not have wi-fi (but we are working on it), however there is phone signal.

  There are a variety of beaches in the area, as well as natural parks and reserves. There are opportunities for kiteboarding, rafting, snorkeling and fishing (some activities are more far away than others, so bear that in mind). And if you are interested in knowing a little more about other cities or towns, there are buses available with different routes!
  
  Should you have an activity in mind, feel free to let us know and we can arrange a trip!
