    Dear all, my name is Eleonora. I registered to this website as a host in 2016. I had an english language school at that time. I met 4 volunteers thanks to Workaway. It was exciting experience. Unfortunately I had to close my school during COVID. Now I am open as a host not for school but as a plain citizen of Kyrgyzstan, to exchange cultural experience and practice my English.

    If you are interested in being a volunteer at our school you will have an unforgettable trip to the sightseeings of southern Kyrgyzstan: visit Suleyman Too, a sacred mountain in the middle of Osh city, included to the UNESCO World Heritage, see Osh Bazaar, the biggest market in Central Asia, trip to 11th-century Uzgen city, travel to Alay district and spend nights in djailoo and sleep in Yurts (in summertime). Also, you will have an opportunity to try our sweet eco fruits and traditional food. You will have an opportunity to practice Russian, Uzbek and Kyrgyz languages.

    Hi, my name is Eleonora. I am from Osh, the ancient town in Kyrgyzstan. I am a school psychologist at a private elementary school named after Kalmamatov. We are looking for a volunteer who is willing to share information about his/her culture and traditions of the country he is representing. Also, we would like to hold small English talking clubs with native speakers to improve the English comprehension skills of our children. Since children will be 8 and 9 years old, we are expecting a volunteer who has teaching experience.

    The place where the volunteer will stay is different from the workplace place.

    It is in the suburb of the city, but not so far from the working place since our city is not so big. Actually, it is my home. A two-level building with 6 rooms. Therefore, there will be enough place for a volunteer to live with us. There will be a separate big room furnitured with all the necessary stuff: bed, chair, table, shower, hot and cold water, washing machine. Food also will be served three times per day. If the volunteer is a vegetarian then she/he can use my kitchen and cook there.
