Description
A green oasis, ancient, spacious, preserved place, inside a small city which is in fast development.
We are looking for one to two volunteers who would like to take care of the house. In exchange you need to do some gardening, pool cleaning, maintenance of the property, including house cleaning, some woodwork, decoration, etc. under agreement with the hosts.
Hygiene is very important, especially because of the situation in which we are all globally.
The use of chemical products is not allowed to use, as our plants drink the "waste"-water!
This means also that soap, toothpaste, the shampoo you bring needs to be biodegradable. And the containers need to be recyclable or taken with you when empty.
Important: no alcohol consumption or other drugs, non-smoker only, no partying.
We offer a minimal-waste and plant-based holistic space, where animals, humans and nature are treated fairly with equal values. For nature lovers, animal lovers, health lovers.
Besides speaking Spanish, we love to communicate in German. We also speak English. However, we are open to other languages as well.
Our vegan-oasis is a place where no animal products are allowed to be entered, neither as food nor as cosmetic products!
Each volunteer is responsible for their own safety. We are not responsible for accidents, robberies or diseases.
*️️️️️️️️️Check-in: from 11 am to 4 pm (Monday to Wednesday)
*️️️️️️️️️Check-out: from 9 am to 11 am (Wednesday to Friday)

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You will have the possibility of living in a vegan and experienced minimal-waste environment.
If plants are one of your strengths, you will be able to coexist with the regional flora (herbology) and fauna.
Tulum is for us a place where you can see the amenities that exist in the city, on the beach and much more.
And it's learning by doing while gardening, building respecting nature and collaborating.
