Description
I am a Canadian living in Nicaragua. I used to run a small touristic farm in Nova Scotia. I am starting over and building one here in Nicaragua. My hope is to live as sustainably as possible, growing my own food and reducing waste. I am pretty easy going but get things done! I love riding my horse, hanging with friends and have reluctantly finally taken up surfing. I speak French, english and am working on my spanish. I used to host workawayers in my farm and Canada and loved the cultural exchange & chance to meet different people. Looking forward to it again!

Nicaragua is a wonderful country and there are tons to experience in the area. Mostly tourists come for surfing but there are lots of other activities to do! The farm is about 5-8 minutes from the beach (I recommend you have some sort of mode of transportation) in a more private area.

Aide
Starting up up a little farm in Nicaragua & an extra pair of hands is always useful. Tasks are flexible depending on what you would like to do. So far, the farm has 3 dogs, 2 kittens, 4 horses, and some chickens. With time I hope to add in pigs, ducks, goats and an emu (if I can find one in Nicaragua!!). The farm is also growing its garden and the hope is eventually provide the household with lots of greens and veggies. Help around the house is also expected, meals, cleaning, etc.

Small room with single bed. You would be sharing the house with me. The house is very basic; palm roof, concrete walls, no ac. I am in the process of building a pool and there is a large rancho you would have access to exercise if you need. Internet is good and never goes out as the farm is entirely on solar. You will be expected to help with cooking and general house chores.
Autres infos...
You'll have lots of time off to go explore the area. The area is growing and theres a great community around. You'll be welcome to join on some of my adventures (horse riding, surfing, swimming, hanging out, etc.). It would be good if you had your own transport as its a decent walk to the beach, but if not, we can work around it (I can offer rides).
