Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We love having people stay with us and we welcome them into our home like family. My wife Angelina is an amazing cook and cooks Nyonya Baba and Asian food very well. We can teach you how to make these dishes and also take you to our favourite restaurants. You will try many new dishes while you are staying with us.
Learning about durian is like learning about wine.the workawayers will learn a lot about durian since we have a 20 acre farm with 5 types of durian, eco farming, soil monitoring and management.
Help
We will like to host workaways with a positive mindset, a with passion for hospitality and a good work attitude.
We have three workers who work on the durian farm so the help we would like from workerwayers is to help serve customers durian, speak to them and make sure they are having a good time, our customers really enjoy speaking to foreigners.
We love to share food, on a typical day we might get take away breakfast (this is very typical in asia), you can cook lunch for us and we could cook dinner for you. So it would be great if you can cook for us one meal a day, we love to try new food and share culture like this.
We would like help with odd jobs such as painting or laundry. We have many, many plants around our home so Angelina may need help looking after these too.
