Beschreibung
I am a Bedouin, named Ghassab, and I am living in a real cave in the rocks, near the famous 7 wonders city Petra, in Jordan.
I was born in a cave, in Petra. All my family is born in caves, and nowadays they live in a village, that was built by the government. But I still live in the cave.

I studied natural medicine.and yoga
Now I have ideas to make a good place for tourists, around my cave, so everybody can enjoy Eco life in nature.

Here in Jordan I have my own travel organisation and I am also working as a guide. I speak 4 languages which are Arabic, English, German.
Sometimes people stay as a guest in my cave.

I am looking for volunteers to work around and in my cave.and helping with hiking tours in Petra and wadi rum
The work is Eco work like building walls from old stones, making Terrasses, and a little gardening.

What I want is people working full day and then you have the lodging, eating together in nature in front of the cave. Sleeping in or around the cave.
The work is from one week to three weeks.
During your free time, you can go hiking, learning Bedouin cooking, enjoying nature, visiting Bedouin families or listening to the silence...

Hope to hear from you!!
Greatings,
Ghassab

Unterkunft
you can sleep in or around the cave, which is a real special experience! The accomodation is simple but comfortable (matresses and blankets and pillows, or in tents if preferred). I also have an apartment now, that can be used, with kitchen, bathroom, and wi-fi.
Was noch ...
I am living a sober life in nature, and want to make everything eco.
I have a jeep for transport.
I am a really good cook.
The area where I live is a great place for hiking or outdoor activities in general. Petra is really close, and you can spend your free time discovering the "City of Stone".
Not too far are also other places worth visiting : Shobak castle, Wadi Ghweir, Wadi Araba and its high sand dunes, Petra mountains and canyons. Further are also Wadi Rum and Aqaba, for a week-end for instance.

It was my first Workaway experience and had a great time with Ghassab. Meeting him was a good chance to understand the Bedouin hospitality. I helped him for a week in the desert and in his cave giving support with the guests and cooking for them. In the end, he introduced me to his partner who offered me a job. So, thanks to Guassab, my staying in… read more

I stayed in Petra for two weeks with Ghassab. The first week I was with 3 other girls and it was a really fun time. The work was really easy. Usually just cleaning and cooking, sometimes helping in the cave and with tourists. I would recommend being SUPER flexible if you come here.

I stayed at Gassab’s place in Little Petra for 5 days. He is a nice guy, friendly and a great cook. He is not living at his cave right now. He is in a house in the village, is a real Bedouin home, very nice. You are a short walk away from Little Petra’s ruins, which are gorgeous. Petra is 1.5 hrs walking.

I had a really good time with Ghassab, the work wasn't too hard or too often and he really shows you the Bedouin way of life. The cave is beautiful especially at night (soooo many stars). I would definitely recommend it for anyone else and will try and make it back there myself!
