Dear Volunteer,
Nice to meet you!
In June a hurricane hit the coast of Oaxaca very hard, destroying nature and living spaces. We need to review the situation and do some clean-up work to start with.
Furthermore we are busy with different projects and could use some help..
We appreciate people who are on time.. and do as they say.
Who are we?
We are Merante Tamar & Krien Jozeph, an artist couple from Amsterdam. We started our project 5 years ago as a theatrical, philosophical music & performance duo.
Because of COVID, we decided to fulfil another dream as an extension of our vision: we bought a pristine breathtaking land in Aragon, overlooking the ocean. Located in nature, close to all the hustle and bustle of Mazunte and Zipolite.
Three years ago we gave birth in Mexico to our beautiful daughter Æa.Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

We can offer adventure!
- Sleeping under the stars in nature's beauty.
- Outside your working hours you can relax, read books, go for nature walks, to the beautiful (nude if you prefer) beach, take a collectivo to Mazunte or Zipolite, that are minutes away. There are lots of small restaurants, to have a croissant or coconut, and small groups of yoga and related workshops. Mazunte is a more hip, spiritual town, with ecstatic dance kind of events, Zipolite is a bit more rock 'n roll, Mexico's only official (gay) nude beach, and has the occasional party going on.Arbeit
You can be of immediate use to us by helping build the heavy wooden terrace. We make use of our own experiential knowledge, helped by an expert. This process could take up to 8 weeks.
If you have building knowledge or have experience or even expertise, that would be awesome.
It's heavy work, also because of the sunshine, which luckily will be amazing in your free time :)
We also have a garden that needs care, water, planting seeds. This will be a small part of your working day.
We expect you to work 5 hours from 8 in the morning till 1. It's hot in Mazunte and morning are the safest working hours.
We offer a good breakfast, like chia or porridge with fruits, or bread with eggs, tomato and avocado.
At lunch time (between 1-2 pm) Krien will cook up a beautiful vegan lunch. Around once a week we eat fish or meat if so desired. For the evening we make sure there is food for you to cook yourself or with the other volunteers.Sprachen

We would like to learn more Spanish :)Unterkunft
Our accommodation is very basic, since we are just starting.
We sleep in tents on the land.
For our work-awayers we have a few tents with matras and sheets or hammock with mosquito net!
The number of mosquitos varies: during the rainy season there are many more that in the dry season (nov/dec-may-june).
The shower is a bucket shower.
The toilet is a dry toilet.Was noch ...
Something to be considered for the faint of heart:
We have some spiders, scorpions and snakes around. Spiders are not mortal. The scorpion's bite is painful, but not mortal. Only one snake is deadly: we haven't seen it yet!
They will not show themselves very often, but we've seen some around.
We feel everyhing is here and around: incredible nature, beaches with or without other people, different types of international food, and people, music, yoga.
If you do want some amazing weekend break, you can go to the mountains, cold, and with beautiful nature, to the local market of Pochutla, to float with the crocodiles of Ventanilla, to the city vibes of Puerto Escondido.
There's a good system of collectivos, local public transport, that gets you to most places!
Mazunte is a 10-minute ride, or a 50 minute walk, Zipolite is a 15 minute walk.Etwas mehr Information

We have a nice big platform on the land where campervans can park.
Hier sind Haustiere in der Regel willkommen
We like cats, we have one. We prefer no dogs, unless they stay on the other platform, where Workawayers also sleep, because they should not ruin the garden, walk in the kitchen or scare the cat :)

Es una fabulosa experiencia para aprender nuevos idiomas y conocer otras culturas.
Krien cocina delicioso y su comida es muy saludable, además de que a la hora de la comida siempre había buenas charlas.
Con Merante conviví pocos días pero tenía una alegría muy contagiable.
Era super hermoso trabajar la tierra y… read more
