Description
We're a Dutch-Peruvian couple with a seven year old son. We had a B&B for years and one year ago we had the opportunity to start our dream: open our own restaurant. Edu is a chef and musician who has been experimenting for years and, me Eva, I'm an anthropologist and I work with textile. We run our restaurant by ourselves and we love having people around from all over the world. The restaurant is open from Thursday till Monday during the night. We're always trying to improve the space, so there is general maintenance, some painting, and at the moment we need some help with online improvements, especially our website and SEO etc.
This dream was born at the beaches of Huanchaco, inspired by the sea and the town. The artisanal fisherman and the artists who continue the ancient traditions, are our masters. The dry woods of Chan Chan and the principal mountains are the temples where we recognize ourselves as contemporaries and ancestrals.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We work with traditional Peruvian dishes with a personal twist. There's plenty to learn in the kitchen about Peruvian cuisine. We prepare our own sodas and specialty cocktails and new ideas are always welcome, as we believe learning and teaching go hand in hand. Live music has a prominent place in the restaurant, and there will be plenty opportunity to learn and play music. Our seven year old son is bilingual and he enjoys teaching you any Spanish or Dutch :)
Help
There's always things that need to be done in the restaurant, like helping with decoration, painting etc. We don't have much knowledge of SEO, website improvements and other online issues that we'd love some help with.
We have a seven year old son who loves to make new friends and learn new things. It's a big plus if you love playing with children, or teaching him anything you are both interested in.

What else ...
You'll be living just three blocks from the Pacific Ocean in the center of Huanchaco. A lively and touristic town at 30 minutos from the city of Trujillo. Huanchaco is the capital of surf, where the waves are declared world heritage by UNESCO and surfing is possible the whole year round. There are lots of archeological sites to visit like Chan Chan, el Brujo and the temples of the Sun and the Moon (huacas del Sol y la Luna).
