Description
Hey Workawayers!
We have a chill little camp by Lake Khuvsgul where we don’t follow “policies" we follow good energy. You help a bit, laugh a lot, eat well, and become part of our small family.
Tasks are simple, days are peaceful, and nights are full of stars and bonfires. If you want a place where people treat you like a friend, not a worker; welcome home. -

Coco and Marie were wonderful volunteers to have with us. They were honest, reliable, and hardworking throughout their stay. They were always willing to help, took their responsibilities seriously, and were a pleasure to have around. We really appreciated their help and would happily recommend them to any host!

Thanks to Ider and everyone involved making this an incredible first workaway-experience for me. I stayed for 10 days and was welcomed by Ider, his Mongolian Staff and 15 workawayers. The work is never too much and everything is very flexible. I helped a lot with cleaning Gers, changing linen, assisting in the kitchen and cleaning the dishes.

I've stayed 1 month at Ider guesthouse. One of my best time in Mongolia, the job was mainly laundry, preparing / tidying the gers, helping in the kitchen.
Ider made my stay easy and joyful. Others workawayers were there and the team was amazing. The view of the Lake and the mountains is stunning. Thanks you for everything Ider. :)
