  Start date: September, October or November
  =============
  
  Hi everyone :)
  
  My name is Miri and I am the very happy owner of a kitesurfing lodge in Cape Town. I am looking for 2 volunteers who would like to stay 2-6 months in high season, and a few volunteers who would like to come in September/early October, to help get the house ready (maintenance, DIY, some fun improvement projects).
  
  Our house Khaya is a place where kitesurfers, digital nomads and yoga lovers come together every year. Many guests stay for several weeks or even months, so you really get to know them and form amazing, life-long connections. The name means home and that's the vibe we're after, everyone who comes through is not just a guest, they're family.
  
  The house is 5 minutes walking distance to the kitesurfing beach and bars/supermarket/restaurants. It has a pool, hammocks, slackline, fireplace, braai and lots more fun to enjoy. For this position you will be staying either in a bed in the 8-dorm or in a tent in the back of the garden (your choice). We do loads of outdoor activities (hiking, vineyards, road-trips, food markets etc), you'll never get bored and it's always a vibe!
  
  Looking forward to meeting you :)
  
  P.S. we have a dog and you will fall in love (once she is done checking you're safe haha)

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Cape Town is simply the best place in the world and I think you'll agree after staying here! You'll never get bored hiking, surfing, kiteboarding, diving, wine tasting, exploring beaches, eating at the countless amazing restaurants, partying and road tripping. Just to name a few.
  
  The house is in the Blouberg area, meaning 20-25 minutes by car from Cape Town centre.

  SEPTEMBER/ EARLY OCTOBER
  Khaya opens only in October, so right now we're a cool little homey winter-crew, but it's before the kiters arrive. I'm looking for:
  - Maintenance/DIY expert. Things break over winter and need fixing, sanding, painting etc.
  - Interior design enthusiast. Are you obsessed with interior design, have vision and the ability to make that vision come alive? Let's do some improvements to the common spaces (especially kitchen needs attention I think).
  - Photographer (early October), this is a good time to take some new photos of rooms and common areas :)
  
  MAIN SEASON - (OCTOBER/)NOVEMBER to MARCH
  I need a couple of right hands to help with check-ins, general running &tidying of the place, admin/errands, maintenance and fun activities. Braai (BBQ), pizza-nights, hikes, kite excursions etc. These positions are for volunteers who are happy to stay a MINIMUM OF 2 MONTHS. Both positions below include these tasks, plus need to be able to do either of the following:
  
  -- Position 1 --
  Handyman & general help
  MUST HAVE pretty solid DIY/maintenance knowledge cause I'm hopeless. I will also ask for a bit of help keeping the garden tidy.
  
  -- Position 2 --
  Yoga teacher & general help
  I'm looking for someone who is able to teach a solid class. Classes are donation-based, all money is yours to keep. You will be teaching 3-5x a week.
  I will also ask for a bit of help keeping the house tidy (no serious cleaning, there is a cleaning lady present every single day).
  
  Just to be clear, both positions will also be helping with check-ins, errands, and fun activities.
  
  This may sounds like a lot, but I promise it's really quite chilled. There are no fixed working hours, we take it as it comes. I 100% encourage you to have all the experiences in Cape Town, we all work together to keep things flexible and fun!

  Possibilité d'accueillir les animaux

  My dog is territorial so she will give any other animal coming into the house a hard time at first. However, she has lived with lots of different dogs over the years, so it's doable.
