You’ll have the unique opportunity to immerse yourself in both language and Nicaraguan traditions. By practicing Spanish in real-world settings, you’ll enhance your fluency while connecting with locals and learning firsthand about their daily lives and customs. Alongside language practice, you’ll discover the rich culinary traditions of the region practicing in hands-on cooking sessions. It’s a journey that will leave you a lasting memory, new skill, and deeper connection to the cultural experience.
Help
Tasks: As a volunteer, your primary role will be assisting with tasks in the garden and around the house. Some examples of tasks include:
Gardening: Weeding, planting, pruning, watering, and general garden maintenance.
Household Chores: Light cleaning, organizing, laundry, and possibly meal preparation.
General Help: Assistance with any other small tasks that may arise, such as shopping or fetching items.
Who You Are:
A friendly, compassionate, and responsible person with a love for nature and an interest in supporting elderly people.
Comfortable working independently and able to take initiative when needed.
Physically able to assist with gardening tasks (light to moderate work, some bending, and lifting).
Patient and understanding, as I may need extra time or guidance in some tasks.
What I Offer:
A warm, welcoming home with your own private room.
2 - Home-cooked meals.
A beautiful, peaceful environment, perfect for someone who enjoys nature and tranquility.
An opportunity to make a positive difference in someone's life while gaining experience in gardening and elderly care.
Duration:
2 Days, 1 week to 1 month, or flexible depending on availability. If you like the project you can stay if you don’t, you are not obligated to stay.
Additional Information:
I can offer guidance in the garden if you're new to gardening, but a basic understanding of gardening tasks is appreciated. I'm looking for someone who can help on a regular basis and also has a flexible attitude towards tasks. In return, you'll have a chance to experience a peaceful lifestyle and contribute to a meaningful cause.
