  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    In guatemala, you would have a room, as we are going to rent a house.
    And after you will have your own cabin on the boat. There is no hot water, but the sea is warm 😉 and the shower is on the deck.
    A boat is a small place to live, even if every body has his privacy.
    Depending when we work, we would eat together.
