Details

• 

  Description

  From 20 July until 15 November
  
  Hello Workawayers!
  We are a South African/ Canadian family who recently bought a cabin right next to the beach in a small , very safe costal town on the Garden Route of South Africa.
  
  We are 350km north east of Cape Town.
  
  We plan to change this cabin into a cute holiday cabin that will be suitable to rent out to families, surfers or any adventurers who want to be within 5 minutes walk to the beach and lagoon.
  
  But we need a bit of help with the last bit of renovations. The rental income from this cabin will go towards a good cause, we can tell you more once you arrive!
