    Description

    Originally from Switzerland , we own a land, my mom, my sister and I in Hone Creek in the caribe side of Costa Rica 🇨🇷. We are very well located near shops and bus stop. 5 km from Puerto Viejo and 8 from Cahuita. The sea is less than 5 km away and access to various national parks very close. We need help with gardening and construction work. In exchange we offer accommodation and food + Pura vida life 😜. If you have a little experience in the field of home improvement or gardening, do not hesitate to contact me! Hope too see you soon
