Description
Hi! We are building and improving a small guesthouse in Midigama, Sri Lanka, close to the beach and surf spots.
Our project is focused on creating a beautiful, relaxing place for travelers. At the moment we are renovating the property, improving the garden, planting tropical plants, painting, building outdoor areas.
We welcome friendly, motivated volunteers who enjoy practical work, learning new skills, and being part of a relaxed environment. In exchange, we provide accommodation, meals, and the opportunity to experience life in a local surf town.
There is always a variety of tasks, so every day is a little different. We value a positive attitude, reliability, and teamwork more than previous experience. -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We enjoy meeting people from different cultures and creating a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Volunteers will have the opportunity to experience everyday life in a small Sri Lankan surf town, explore beautiful beaches, enjoy the local food, and discover the surrounding area.
We are happy to share our knowledge about Sri Lanka, local culture, surfing, and the guesthouse business. At the same time, we enjoy learning about other countries, cultures, languages, and experiences from our volunteers. -
