  Description

  Looking for a Helping Hand in the Rainforest!
  
  We are a loving, busy family of three and three gorgeous dogs seeking a participant through the Workaway program to help us maintain our home in exchange for accommodation in the heart of the rainforest.
  
  About Us: Our daughter attends university during the week and is home on weekends. We run a full-time tourism business and can't keep up with the needs of our household without some extra help! We are looking for a minimum commitment of one month to ensure a stable and fulfilling experience for everyone involved.
  
  If you are interested in living in a rainforest environment, experiencing Costa Rican life, and lending a hand to a warm family, we’d love to hear from you!
