Description
Hey! I'm Melissa — my husband and I have been calling Cambodia home for quite some time (me since 2017, him since 2012), and together with our adventurous 3-year-old twins, we’re diving into an exciting new chapter in beautiful Kampot, Cambodia!
We’ve just landed a dreamy property surrounded by nature — think a big house with a little house on the side of the property, tropical fruit trees (mangoes, bananas, papayas, tamarind, coconuts galore!), and space to bring our vision to life. We are a heart-centered, family-friendly wellness space in Kampot, Cambodia, offering yoga, kirtan, workshops, vegetarian food, and a lush natural environment with a natural playground for families to connect, play, and grow. Our space includes a yoga shala, Ayurvedic Café, and a playground designed to welcome both locals and worldschooling families.
We are currently looking for volunteers, especially:
✨ Yoga teachers – with a special interest or experience in working with children
🌈 Experience with Montessori or Waldorf approaches is a big bonus
🎨 Open-minded creatives, educators, and community-minded souls are always welcome too!
🌿 Experience in building, especially DIY projects
Come be part of a warm, intentional space where wellness, nature, and community meet. In exchange for your time and talents, we offer accommodation, meals, and a rich opportunity to contribute meaningfully.
We’re also dreaming up an organic garden and embracing the stunning surroundings — the property backs onto a peaceful mangrove, and we’ve got kayaks ready for anyone who wants to paddle through paradise. We’re just 5 km from town — a breezy 10-15 minute ride by moto.
Exciting times ahead — and we can’t wait to share it all with you!
