Description
Hi My name is Linda and my backpacker hostel in Mandrem Beach (Goa) opened it’s doors to travellers in December 2022 and is just seeing it’s first full blown season.
We have a bunch of dormitories as well as private rooms.
We have a beautiful garden space nestled under coconut trees behind a sand dune, a cute cafe/bar which is evolving and growing more beautiful each day.
We want this community space to grow and expand with contributions of different type of skill sets.
We are also open to Artist Residencies where if you have a project in mind we can provide stay and space for you to help in exchange for something you create for our community space. We also have one front desk manager and housekeeping staff employed on the property. The cafe has a chef too.
Workawayers will appreciate the chilled out vibe of this space, the proximity to all the amazing places (restaurants/bars/events) and leisure activities like yoga or surfing.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Art Projects
Gardening
DIY and building projects
Hospitality/Tourism

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Workawayers will get to work with local people on the property, as well as other Workawayers and hostel guests. There is plenty of opportunity to learn about Indian and local Goan culture on a daily basis.
Help
I'm running a new backpacker hostel in the middle of Mandrem Beach, Goa. We require a lot of help from active and creative people to keep the project going. Whether you are an experienced visual artist, musician or DJ, a yoga teacher, into gardening, construction or decoration – we need you.

Accommodation
Workawayers stay in a dedicated shared dorm.
What else ...
Mandrem beach is a little cut off from public transportation. We advise Workawayers to rent their own bike (daily and monthly rentals available everywhere), in case they choose to move around. Else there are endless beaches, countless bars, cafes, restaurants and events right around the corner.
