Description
Join our family for a unique lifestyle exchange in Nesat Village. We live a alternative life near the beach, a fresh water laoong and a waterfall. We are looking for a kind, organized person to help me and my kids pack our lives up before we move to Siem Reap in July.
If you love nature, animals, and kids, this is a great adventure! You must be okay with "jungle life" (like bugs and power cuts).
We live a high-energy, off-grid lifestyle. This isn't a typical holiday; it’s an active role in a remote jungle setting. You’ll need to be resourceful and fast on your feet, even when the power is out or the WiFi is down. If you enjoy a fast-paced day in a rugged, natural environment, you’ll fit right in.
