  • Description

    Description

    The project is developing the property itself. We detail the property, create new spaces, update or improve areas. There’s always something we can create or maintain. We also welcome guests as a boutique stay and venue. I am creative, a jack of all trades and you can help me with what I may be working on, hands on or you may support our endevor skill sharing.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    You would have time to expeirence tulum and surrounding places to visit the natural spots for which it is known. We are walking distance to one of the many beautiful fresh water cenote swimming holes. Multiple gorgeous beaches are nearby, sand public transportation is a few steps away. Many beaches have a fee to visit for maintaining them. But also you can visit the more popular and more active public beaches which are free access.

    Life here is mostly about living a slow pace in connection with a nature. At night you’ll sleep with the sounds of the bug life and morning and day the sounds of birds. We also have a roof top for star gazing at night or watching the sunset.

    I am Mexican and enjoy food and cooking. I am not a vegetarian but I do eat healthy. I’m sure we could exchange a lot culturally and cooking wise.

    I am also a traveler, knowledgeable and active in many fields. We could make good acquaintance exchange culturally and create together something worthwhile.

    We have an extensive home in the wilderness in close proximity to tulum town on the coastal highway. I take care of the property. The orientation is mostly maintenance or upkeep, but it could also be cooking, gardening, creative help, handiwork, or welcoming guests.

    Coming up next, I need to organize a storage of materials such as wood and building materials. You can help me part time if you are a creative or a hands on active person. We require someone of energy and good disposition to work.

    Another kind of work available may be sitting for a pet cat and house sitting when we travel. The cat is an indoor/outdoor animal of very low maintenance, and very quiet. Great companion.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    You will also have a private bungalow studio in nature. Full bed, bathroom, fridge, microwave, coffee maker, blender. The space comfortable, with large windows and views, and well shaded. But it’s not provided with air conditioning nor hot water. The water is fresh well water. There may be ocasional geckos, spiders or bugs, all of them are the jungle ecosystem and are not harmful to us. All you’ll have to do is keep window nets closed so they don’t step inside. We do live in a natural area that is further developing. We have many neighbors and extensive land. I have a vehicle and go to and from then town for groceries. I can always help with that or you can accompany. There’s also van rides very 5 to15 minutes walking distance at about 200 meters, that go to tulum and playa del carmen and anywhere in between them.
