  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We currently have a big room with two beds and a bathroom for our workawayers! Limited places

    We have a kitchen for volunteers where they can cook any recipe. The garden has fruit trees and some vegetables. Volunteers can harvest whatever they want to use in their meals, and we can help them with tips on what to eat from the garden. I can make homemade bread to give to volunteers for breakfast. I only require them to work three hours a day.
    ============
    Tenemos una cocina para los voluntarios donde pueden cocinar cualquier receta. En la huerta hay árboles frutales y algunos vegetales. Los voluntarios pueden cosechar lo que quieran para usarlo en su comida y podemos ayudarles con consejos para saber qué pueden comer de la huerta. Puedo hacer pan casero para darles a los voluntarios y que tengan para el desayuno. Solo quiero que trabajen 3 horas por día.

    What else ...

    You can stay at the project on your time off, we recommend you go to San Ramon, Esparza and Puntarenas for a quick day out, but as we are located in a centric place of Costa Rica you can move by bus everywhere in the country, we can help you! Also we charge a small fee if you want someone from the project to take you shopping or just to leave you at the bus stop in San Ramon. Also there are some highlights near our house and you can see waterfalls, coffee plantations, trapiche visits, the famous farmers market from San Ramon and much more! Just ask!

    Please note that we are not giving three meals a day. I will give bread and cereal for your breakfast and you will cost the other meals! Also we can cook together some costarican dishes!
