    Description

    Hey Workawayers! I’m a Norwegian American renovating a cool surf hostel in El Tunco, El Salvador! Help join me to make the place awesome!

    El Salvador is know for its surfing, and El Tunco is the center of surfing in El Salvador. Besides great surf, food, nightlife, people, sunsets… there is some of the most beautiful coastline I’ve seen, an epic waterfall nearby, and we are only 40 minutes from The Capital of San Salvador
