  Description

  Hi ,I’m living in Raub, Pahang . I'm building a camp two minutes from the waterfall surrounded by nature and 20 minutes from the main town. I already did the main structure of the building but still need help to organize space and ideas to improve, decorate my place. Right now I'm only person working in my place, I don't have any staff. I’m looking for people who’d like to join this project and help with tasks like: Maintenance of place, organizing spaces , Decoration, painting, gardening.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  This place is also about sharing experiences and learning from each other. We cook traditional Malay dishes together, and you're more than welcome to share a meal from your home country or a favorite dish you’ve discovered on your travels.
  
  There’s also a chance to experience local traditions. It’s possible that we might be invited to a wedding, where you can witness Malaysian hospitality and culture up close. If you happen to be here during Ramadan, we may visit the mosque and break the fast together at Iftar, a special and communal meal after sunset.
  We believe that exchanging stories, food, and traditions makes the experience even richer, and we look forward to learning from you as much as you learn from us!
  
  When you’re not helping, there are plenty of ways to explore and enjoy the surroundings:
  
  Birdwatching at Fraser Hill – A great spot to observe a variety of bird species in a cooler, highland environment.
  
  Wildlife in Taman Negara – Visit Malaysia’s famous national park to experience its rich biodiversity, from towering trees to diverse wildlife.
  
  Monthly Visit to an Aboriginal Village – More than just a visit; it’s like meeting up with friends. Experience cultural exchange, learn about nature from a traditional perspective, and possibly support local projects.
  
  Art Garden Madi – A unique place to explore creativity and nature combined.
  
  There’s always something to discover, whether it’s nature, culture, or simply taking time to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
