My time here was amazing.
I spent 3 weeks there as main cook. The kitchen is very big, with any sort of spice and all what you need to cook delicious vegetarian food.

I was with Wendy for a month, and it was my first (beautiful) experience with Workaway.
I highly recommend this experience to everyone, it was very very nice and has expanded my skills. I shared a spacious bedroom with air conditioning overlooking the sea with a German girl. After four hours of work you are free to go to the beach, at the pool or… read more
