Hello, my name is Johanna and I have a travel agency located on San Cristobal Island in the Galapagos. The Galapagos is a national reserve, likely one of the most famous in the world. San Cristobal is a calm island, famous for its wildlife and beautiful beaches. There are a lot of activities to do here, such as scuba-diving, snorkeling, kayaking, biking, and surfing.
Option 1 -
My agency offers daily tours, visiting the different land and marine sites on San Cristóbal. We have a charter boat that began touring the Galapagos in September, and I am mainly interested in promoting this. I need someone who is able to stay a minimum of 5 weeks so they have time to learn about my business and effectively help.
I'm looking for a female who is fluent in English and willing to teach my three children (ages 6 ,9, and 10). I need help promoting my business to increase my sales. I am requesting assistance in promoting my agency around the world, and making connections in the volunteer's country of residence. I am interested in someone who is willing to continue to help with these connections after their stay with my family.

I am also looking for help on our family farm. We would like either a single or couple who have experience in hydropnics and farming. For a single 3 meals will be included each day, for a couple you will need to provide your own food. The farm is located in the Highlands of San Cristobal, Galapagos about 15 minutes drive from Puerto Baquerizo Moreno. You will be required to help during the day on the farm however we can provide bikes for you to come into the town centre in your free time. We will also pick you up once per week and drive you to the town centre for the day.
You would be sharing the farm house with a couple who speak only Spanish therefore it is important you know how to speak Spanish to effectively contribute on the farm. The farm house is very basic, you would have your own room, however there is no running water and we are only just working on getting power supplied however this would be limited to one hour per day. There is no wifi and only a small amount of fridge space will be available.

The farm is just starting up and we require someone or a couple that know and have experience with hydroponics. We have cattle, 2 dogs, a horse, and chickens on the farm. You will be required to not only help out on the farm but also provide guidance and fresh ideas for the farm. You will be required to help with the removal of weeds which is quite hard work.

I live in a big, two-story house in San Cristobal with my husband, nanny, and my 3 children. The place is steps from the water, nice, relaxing, and really safe. You will get a shared room (possibly private as nanny is currently out sick) with a bathroom, as well as three meals a day. It's a place where you can learn about wildlife and vegetation, while discovering the beautiful sites of the island with us.

Tendrá un hogar en nuestra casa y podrá aprender de la flora y fauna del lugar, conocer los sitios más hermosos de la isla con nosotros. Se ofrece hospedaje y alimentación.

You will be living in the highlands of San Cristobal, Galapagos, in a small room in an old farm house. There is limited power and no running water. There are 2 fresh water tanks that can be used for washing up etc. You will share a bathroom and kitchen with a couple that are currently the caretakers for the farm.

We treat our volunteers like family — mi casa es su casa. My family loves welcoming new people and cultures into our home and try our best to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We have lunch everyday as a family, that you'd join, and breakfast is "help yourself". In your free time you can go for walks to the beach, shop around the main promenade, and go exploring. The kids are always excited to show our volunteers the sites and I do my best to help point you in the right direction for all the fun :)
I work hard, but my home is truly a place of tranquility. I ask that you honor the environment we live in and the home I've built for my family, respecting everything that's not yours and not hesitating to offer a helping hand (whether that's cleaning dishes or picking the kids up from school). I'm excited to be in touch and welcome you into our family!
Option 2 -
Volunteers are welcome to enjoy the vast land of the highlands. You can also enjoy the beachs, shops and snorkeling on your weekends. You will need to help with making meals and washing up etc in the home. Everyone is expected to help out. We are excited to have someone with experience come and teach us all they know and enjoy our beautiful farm.
