Description
Hello
I'm Laura, I live in a beautiful place called Costa Esmeralda. I'm running a small beach house, cabin and camping vacation rental business, I'd love to share my simple lifestyle with people from all over the world and show a little bit of what it's like to live in a traditional Mexican beach area surrounded by nature. The team is always approachable, cheerful and we love to have any kind of cultural exchange.
Our place is lovely and calm, but since it’s right in front of the beach, it requires a lot of constant maintenance and help. We’re looking for Workawayers who are willing to lend a hand, share their way of life, and enjoy the place.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Language practice
Help with Eco Projects
Light gardening
Creative DIY projects
Animal Care
Creating/ Cooking family meals
Help around the house
Hospitality/Tourism
Light maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
If you want to discover an authentic part of Mexico, this place is for you.
Costa Esmeralda is not a big turistic area so the traditions and cultures are still very authentic.
Staying here, you will meet and live with a lot of local people happy to show you their ways to leave and their costumes, you will try the delicious and very varied local food and you will learn many local words that you won't find anywhere else in Mexico.
Also, you can visit places around that have a lot of history behind and of course, the amazing nature and wild life of the state of Veracruz.
We will provide you an always different homemade meal per day so you can taste many different flavours of the delicious mexican kitchen.
Help
The activities you’ll be doing while staying here are:
- General maintenance
- Painting
- Dog walks
- Spending time with the dogs
- Building beach palapas
- Gardening
- Hospitality cleaning (beach house and/or cabins)
- Bamboo and wood fence building
- Wood repairs
- Small wood projects (doors, chairs, tables, etc.)
- Making bonfires for guests
- Beach cleaning
- Cooking
- Sand shoveling
Many of the activities we do involve basic tools, so it’s important that you feel comfortable working with both powered and non-powered tools, as well as wood and construction materials.
A lot of the work is physical. We try to adjust tasks based on your profile to make things as comfortable as possible, but you should be open to this type of activity.
We have 5 lovely dogs. They’re big and full of energy, so you need to like dogs and feel very comfortable around them, as they’re part of many of our daily routines.
We take turns cooking lunch every day. You don’t need to be an expert, but you should be willing to help out in the kitchen.
The kind of personality we’re looking for includes being creative and analytical, having good improvisation skills, being okay with carrying materials like wooden planks, and enjoying working outdoors.
Some days, Miriam (our local staff friend) comes to help with daily chores at the house and spends time working alongside the volunteers.
