Was ist das?

Informationen

Beschreibung
We are a family of 5 (Lars, Liza, our two girls and a cat) who have built a home in the middle of the jungle. We have created a off grid eco homestay/farm and let tourists come and stay with us.
Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten
Gartenarbeiten
Handwerkliche Arbeiten
Mithilfe auf einem Bauernhof
Hausarbeiten
Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
It is a perfect place to learn about the Bidayuh culture and local food (Liza is a chef by profession and cook delicious food made from wild ingredients). The fact that we are surrounded by rainforest makes it also a perfect place to experience a life in the jungle.
Projekte mit Kindern
Dieses Projekt schließt möglicherweise den Umgang mit Kindern ein. Mehr Informationen findest du in unseren Verhaltensregeln und Tipps hier.
Arbeit
The farm is in constant need of maintenance (weeding and pruning) and when we got guests we also need help with cleaning, helping out in the house and entertain our charming girls(if we are busy). Because of our remote location we also need some help with bringing in supplies now and then.
Gesprochene Sprachen
Englisch: Fließend
Malay: Fließend
Norwegian: Fließend
Unterkunft
We got 4 rooms for our guests and will provide one of them for our volunteers.
All basic but clean and with bed linen, mosquito nets and towel provided. Shared toilet and shower.
All meals are also provided :)
Was noch ...
Because of our remote location our volunteers won't be able to go anywhere else when staying with us. But from previous experience that has never been a problem. Volunteers and our guests normally just love kicking back at our big balcony overlooking the jungle and listening to the sounds. You can also walk around in the nearby forest and swim in the river.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Stefan & Sylwia)

Stefan and Sylwia stayed with us for 2 weeks doing different tasks such as weeding, small construction work and some painting. We are very happy for the quality of work they did and also the suggestions (the river rock bed behind the house looks great, thank you).
They are also polite and got along very well with our daughters.
I would say that… read more

Vom Workawayer (Stefan & Sylwia) für Host

We stayed for 2 weeks with Lars and Lisa and it was excellent. We spent our mornings (~3h) and late afternoons (~2h) on farm works and small construction works - we definitely weren't bored doing different kinds of tasks everyday. We weeded pineaples, tapioka and flowers, built small formwork, collected rocks from the river, did some chores around… read more

Vom Workawayer (Pascal) für Host

My almost 2 weeks stay on the little homestay farm out in the jungle of Sarawak was an amazing experience.

It’s an adventure from the first day on when you arrive at the site after a 20 minutes boat ride and I felt being part of the family from the first day on.

I got my own nice and clean room as described in the profile.

The food Liza is… read more

Vom Host für Workawayer (Pascal)

Just had Pascal staying with us for about 2 weeks and we wished we could accommodate him for longer. He has been helping us out in the garden, weeding, planting and laying river rocks along the path. We also did a river cleanup together and some other small beautification projects.
We really recommend Pascal as a volunteer. Not only is he a hard… read more

My time at Lars & Lizas place was wonderful and I felt home right away because they really integrated me in their daily life. The work was interesting and diverse so I was never bored.
I also really enjoyed the time with the girls and the showers in the river.
Not to mention that Lizas food is just perfect and quite an experience.
It is so… read more

Leo stayed with us for a few weeks in May and we couldn't be happier with the help we got.
Leo is a polite young man and are not afraid of getting his hands dirty. He did some heavy labour in our garden(digging up bamboo roots) and helped me to bring in some materials for the house. We enjoyed having him here and will gladly recommend others to… read more

Vom Host für Workawayer (Leonardo & Adrianna)

Leonardo and Adrianna stayed with us for 3 weeks and we are truly grateful for all the help we got.
Our pineapples needed some very much care. Leo took that as a challenge and dived straight into the field with a machete and cleared the whole field in a few days, thumbs up :)
We got plenty of help in the kitchen (to Liza's delight) and all of our… read more

Lars and Lisa are very nice, they create their own paradise in the middle of the jungle. We learn a lot of things about the bidayu culture and the wildlife. We did some weeding, and little construction. We loved cook with Lisa, she teached us a lot about local and jungle food. Well, it was amazing ! See you !

This place is beautiful and even if the owner are busy and cannot host you, try to go as a client as it is the place to be in Kuching.
You can access there only by boat and the cruise with Lars is breathtaking.
The architecture of the house beautiful.
Liza could be a famous chef as her cooking level is very high.
She cooks with organic herbs and… read more
