  • Help

    Help

    First of all, you should know that this is not a job opportunity, instead we welcome you as an active member of our family!

    We prefer if you stay for at least 2 weeks. That allows us to really get to know each other and make this experience not only about the help but also about the cultural exchange, making it more meaningful. It is very important for us that you have the chance to immerse yourself in the day to day of our beloved project. If you have only a month for traveling, we would not encourage instead you should have fun traveling and this is from experience of many 'no show', it affects our schedule. We also had once failed to host a volunteer at the early stage in our workaway program when we wasn't organize and accepted too many volunteers resulting in not enough beds available, she was very disappointed and ever since we never fail to accept volunteers we agree to host again.

    We are looking for vibrant people than can help us create an awesome and interactive environment. Some of the things we need help with are:

    - Reception (Checking guests in/out)
    - Help cleaning
    - Paintwork / Mural design
    - Small renovations
    - Designs
    - Gardening

    And even though we have a list of ideas we'd like to make happen, we are always open to suggestions and we encourage you to have initiative and bring your own flair to our nest!

    We don't mind couples, but some of the activities require only one person, so we hope you don't mind to be split up.
