    Description

    Hello Workerwayers,

    My name is Gaya and I'm the owner of, a boutique hotel in Kandy, Sri Lanka. As a single mom, I live on the property with my daughter and our pet dog. I'm proud to have created employment opportunities for three locals in our village and outside the village, who are part of our team and contribute to our mission of providing exceptional hospitality and support to our guests and our community.

    I started this project with a dream of creating a welcoming space where guests could experience the beauty and culture of Sri Lanka while also supporting the local community. We strive to create a unique and memorable experience for our guests, from our comfortable accommodations to our personalized service and attention to detail.

    We welcome volunteers from all over the world to join our team and contribute to our mission. As a volunteer, you'll have the opportunity to work alongside our staff and learn new skills and implement new ideas of your own while also immersing yourself in the local culture and community.

    i have 4 local workers working under me
    1 chef
    1 room boy
    1 kitchen helper
    1 cleaning lady


    Thank you for considering our project and I look forward to welcoming you to the Kandy.
