Description
Hello traveler, my name is Max. I am married and I have 2 daughters. We live 30 km from the southern capital of the Republic of Kazakhstan (Almaty).
At the foot of the Trans-Ili Alatau mountains. I have a large plot of land and I decided to build a hotel for travelers.
So that everyone can see Kazakhstan from a new side.
I want to show people wild and hard-to-reach places in the mountains and national parks.Types of help and learning opportunities
Language practice
Teaching
Gardening
DIY and building projects
Farmstay help
Hospitality/Tourism
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I'm not sure that a volunteer would be interested in experience in construction, but I am sure that you will really enjoy traveling with me and my family. Every weekend we go to the mountains for 1 to 3 days. Or we go by car to national parks and reserves, where we travel by bicycle or on foot. We love to travel not in popular (tourist places) where people want to show not a large but beautiful part of nature, but along wild and uncrowded roads where the true beauty of the Kazakhstan steppes and mountains is revealed. Places where people still live in national nomadic houses, herd domestic animals, are kind and not spoiled by civilization.

Help
I need volunteers in construction. Since I'm building alone, I really need extra hands. All the work is not difficult, you just need to give the tool and help support. help bring building material. Construction equipment does all the hard and dirty work. My wife really loves plants and flowers, she has a lot of them.
She also needs help caring for them.Languages

For housing volunteers, I have a separate house, it has everything you need, hot water, toilet, kitchen, refrigerator. You will feel at home, surrounded by care and attention.
In Kazakhstan, it is accepted that any person who helps you is not just a volunteer, he is a guest! And the guest is always treated with special treatment (as a family member).
Meals 3 - 4 times a day, national homemade food. It is possible to prepare dishes according to the valanter's request. when traveling, food according to the conditions of the trip.What else ...
As I indicated above, my farm is located outside the city. But this does not mean that there is no civilization here. There are villages nearby 3 km. If necessary, I can provide my car. In your free time you can ride a bike or walk on foot. The views that you will discover cannot be expressed in words; they must be seen. at night you will not hear the noise of cars, you will listen to the singing of birds and the fresh wind from the mountains.
