    Description

    Hello
    My name is Jorge Luis, and I currently manage a hostel in the Olón commune of Ecuador!
    It's a beach area with great surfing, and we're currently in the best season of the year. The project I'd like to start is a time exchange with a volunteer to help keep the place clean for 3 hours a day, 2 days off per week, in exchange for accommodation (a room with a private bathroom).
    I offer:

    A well-equipped shared kitchen
    Wi-Fi
    Laundry facilities
    Hot water

    Sincerely, Jorge Luis
