Description
Hi! We are Idir and Chloé, 29-30 years-old travellers from France.

We love being outdoors and doing physical activities.
We are very interested in off-grid living, ecological building, farming and self-sufficiency.
Also enjoy making random art like stone carving, sculpting with mud, recycling trash into (more or less) useful objects...

Workaway experience :
Each of us has volunteered in different projects: building a earthbag house, building with adobe bricks, making mud art, building domes, fixing dry stone walls, plastering, tiling...
We also spent 6 months in an offgrid community, doing general maintenance of the buildings and low-tech equipments.
It has always been great and unforgettable experiences, that's why we would be more than happy to come and help in all kinds of projects!
We also have some basic skills in woodworking and are used to power tools.

Most of all we love to meet new people and learn new things in all domains!

We stayed one week with Blai in the Republic of freedom and it was so beautiful in all aspects ! Blai is a great person who made us feel welcome from the first minute, we had a lot of fun, deep conversations and learnt so many things. While we were there we mainly worked on building the mud walls for a tiny house in the forest. The place is a real… read more

Chloe and Idir are a very sweet and hardworking couple-team, they did not spend more than a week but we are very glad that they came to help, it's been a very hot weather the last week, even then they gave their best and made a nice progress with the projects at home, with their work and knowledge with bio construction they also gave us some tips… read more

We loved our time at Hugo's farm. The place is a bit rustic (sleep in tent or hammock in the old stables) but magical, there are so many cenotes, and Hugo is always glad to show it. He loves to share the local culture (mayan) and many stunning places, and we loved to share moments with this good laid back person. He even teach us some mayan… read more

We stayed 10 days with Diego and it was a really awesome time. He is a very inspiring person and we learnt a lot with him. He has created a magical place in the beautiful desert with dome houses, cactus and a dry toilet with the best view you can imagine. The work is mostly building and restoring objects, not too hard but varied and always… read more

Imad's farm is such a beautiful place !! I spent 3 months last year with him and with other volunteers, we were helping plant palm trees, make mud bricks and walls, build a small living room with mud, work the soil with the neighbour's donkey, seed beetroots and other vegetables... Imad is a beautiful, generous and smart guy, you will learn a lot… read more

I wanted to wait until the end of my stay to write a review, but after a month here I can't seem to leave!
Imad's farm is a paradise of peace and simplicity.
The project is very promising (i won't say more about it here, you have to come talk to Imad!), and the work is diverse and flexible: working the soil, planting trees, making mud bricks and… read more
