    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    The host is Korean-American and fluent in English, Korean, and Spanish. He has been living in Guatemala since 2013 and is open to language and cultural exchange with Workawayers. Workawayers will work closely with the host and the groundskeeper to develop and work on various projects related to food cultivation, construction, land management, and maintenance. Previous experience is welcomed but not necessary. We have a shared kitchen and often cook, eat, and clean together.
