Beschreibung
Hi there! My name is Veronica, our space has been hosting workaways since 2016, and we've been enjoying the exchange of cultures this platform provides.
Our history
In 2015, my daughter and I decided to leave the city and live our dream -- to live close to the beach. After the pandemic the area has gained so much popularity lately, and most of the tourists that come through are from the main cities like Manila and Pampanga (so mostly local tourists).
We are currently doing some repairs and renovations. The very first kubo we had here will now have to be taken down due its deterioration but come sprouts a new project that we may be building a new one? We try to be very hands on with the work as much as possible. Great help is if you know how to cook(cook for us-meaning everyone contributing in our small inhouse community, not for commercial) it's our way to share our recipes, also keeping our little kitchen clean, maintaining the grounds, the huts and cleaning the bathrooms.
We enjoy meeting people and learning about their culture, making new friends, learning new recipes and enjoying great food, listening to adventure stories, and sharing music.
Community friends come by every once in a while for a chat and you can also go around and explore the area in Liwliwa or other close by towns. Our beach water is clean. and it's always a joy to go for a swim or frolic in the shores, when the waves become stronger our surfer neighbors come out and start to surf.
The air is fresh and clean and the birds, crickets sing everyday!
Come join our experience living in the island tropics!

Arbeit
It would be great if you are skilled with carpentry, basic plumbing (help in fixing leaks, replacing faucet), or gardening. Extra great if your know how to cook!
We need help with maintaining cleanliness like:
•Sweeping the grounds
•Making sure the kitchen and bathrooms are always clean
•Emptying trash bins
•Some gardening - Watering the plants, plucking out weeds
•Organizing and Decluttering
*We thought that you should know that it's already rainy season, at least until September. So some of the tasks mentioned above may not be done on a daily basis due to the rain since we mostly live outdoors.
We have 2 friendly resident dogs and 1 cat that we feed, bathe, and love.
You may also help us in bathing the dogs, and feeding them.
Current Projects:
- Reorganizing
- Take down old kubo
- redoing part of our fence
