    (No matter where in the world you go to, never underestimate the wisdom of local people. No travel or book will ever be able to point you towards an authentic experience the same way a local resident of the place you are visiting can)


    I'm passionate about languages and traveling, I have been a workawayer before in 2014 and I'm the one needing some help now, as someone working remotely and doing tours every so often. I am in the need for some experienced travelers with lots of ideas, I English and yoga teachers are a must. To work in some new community projects for the locals in Santa Ana.

    Help us in this journey and get to know Santa Ana and the rest of El Salvador in a very unique and different way- as a local.
