🌿 Come Join Us in Ba Vi: Experience Authentic Vietnam ! 🌿
Are you tired of the hustle and bustle of city life? Do you crave a genuine connection with nature? Well, you're in luck! My partner, Eric, and I welcome you to our humble multicultural abode in the serene hills of Ba Vi, just a scenic 30-minute drive from Hanoi.
About Us:
Eric and I, along with our five playful German Shepherds, have traded the chaos of city living for the tranquility of Ba Vi. While we run a business in Hanoi, our hearts truly belong to the countryside. We are looking for help with running this house/ greenhouse / gardening.
We have so far designed and built a Koi Pond an Aviary a greenhouse and working on farmland currently. We love DIY projects and are always on the lookout for more like minded people. Going around Ba VI gives you an experience of how local farmers actually live without an economy fueled by international tourism. It can give you a more localized understanding of Local Vietnam.
What We Offer:
* A warm welcome to volunteers from all corners of the globe.
* two meals a day
* Our support with travel advice
* Accommodation in private bedroom
How You Can Help:
* help with the plants, garden spaces and the farm.
* Assist with seeding seasonal vegetables
* Engage in various maintenance tasks around our house, garden, farm and greenhouse.
Requirements for Work:
* We do not have active work at all hours generally we like to see what workawayers are most interested in and see where they can fit in.Types of help and learning opportunities

They helped clean up so many things and even late nights when it rained as well. They were very flexible and supportive through every step of the way.
