    Description

    Good evening, my name is Livia I am the owner of a touristic location in Santa Cruz -Galapagos Ecuador, last week I had the pleasure of meeting one of your volunteers which talked about your programs that interested me greatly, in my farm I work alone, the main attraction here are the underground lava tunnels, I have a guest house with 3 rooms and 2 bathrooms where they can shower and use, I also have a kitchen that is available anytime but the fridge is on my house which is 100m away from the guest house, this farm is new so I would need people that know about planting, cultivating, I have papaya, orange, corn, yuca,pasión fruit,cafe banana, plantains trees, but I would like to plant more, and also have chickens I take care also need people that know about carpentry, electricity and if they know how to work with cement would be great because the house need maintaining, I only ask for 3hr of help 5 days a week, the work would be done during the morning so they can have the rest of the day off, the land is located in Bellavista, the high lands on Santa Cruz , it's 15min away from the bay.
    You have to prepare your food because I do not offer food, you have to buy in Guayaquil some very inexpensive boots that cost 10 dollars, to protect you from the rain and the aggressive mountain we have.
    Thank you in advance for your time and hope to hear some positive answers from you.
