  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    A well rounded education in plant medicine, eco tourism, and the benefits of explortation in the Amazon jungle. Through working around the property, harvesting, planting and discussion, workawayers will gain knowledge of the Amazonian plants/foods in the region and how they are utilized by locals and also will develop an idea of how developing civilization is impacting the Amazonian plants and animals. We can visit locals in the village and learn about day to day life in the village. What people do to survive and make a living. Workawayers will develop a greater understanding and perspective of life. Both plant and human.

    Help

    We are looking for people to help maintain and repair the place. It's a little run down and needs some help. We'd also like someone to maintain the kitchen and cool meals, usually for 2-4 people. Gardening help around the place is helpful as well. It's possible we could use help with the website and social media. The place also works great for internet nomads. We are looking for anyone who wants to study the plants, culture, ourselves, or the animals in the Amazon jungle and help out around the place in some way.
