Descripción
Hello, I'm Maggie, me and my partner Yaksa is running a lakeside place in the countryside of Melaka. We both are diy person and doing mostly everything by ourselves from daily general maintenance, housekeeping work to marketing and creative event planning and more! We welcome people who open minded and easygoing to live with us surrounded by nature, fruit trees and open land, it is a place where people come to slow down, reconnect with nature and enjoy a simple lifestyle away from the city.
The estate has a small retreat space with around 14 rooms, long house and a campsite. We host small retreats, family stays, and occasionally children’s camps and nature activities.
What we love most about this place is the calm atmosphere. In the morning you wake up to birds and fresh air, and in the evening you can watch beautiful sunsets by the lake. Nights here are quiet and peaceful, with stars and shooting stars if you're lucky!
We welcome volunteers who enjoy being outdoors and are happy to help with daily tasks. Let us know if you have any extra skills or hobbies, any possibilities will do, and let's see how we can make it work together! Volunteers are expected to work 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, in exchange of accommodation and food.
Food can be taking turns prepared as a shared meal, or sometimes we will prepare the ingredients, feel free to enjoy your cooking time. Sometimes we will take you to our favorite place or restaurant at nearby, or if we are going to the melaka town, you can explore the tourist spot.
What to expect for cultural exchange with us? My partner Yaksa has 20years experience running guesthouse, pizzeria, cafes, farm stay, campsite. For myself, I was a piano teacher, and sometimes we held live music night in our pizzeria. I enjoy quality conversation, under the stars especially. We can share our experience on our life, travel stories or diy skills, and we hope we can learn from you whatever skills you have. We believe in faith, we are looking forward who is the one that the universe bring to us!

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
Volunteers can learn about simple nature living, gardening, maintaining a small retreat space, and how we host guests in a peaceful countryside environment.
At the same time, we hope Workawayers can bring their own skills and ideas to enhance the place. Whether it is gardening, DIY, cooking, art, music, photography, events, marketing, or other creative skills, we welcome people who enjoy sharing what they know.
This is a place for people who enjoy nature, meaningful contribution, and cultural exchange. We believe everyone can learn from each other!

Alojamiento
Workawayers will stay in our longhouse, a semi-open wooden structure that is simple and close to nature. Bedding will be provided, and the space is designed for a relaxed, close to nature experience.
The longhouse faces the open landscape, so you can enjoy a beautiful sunrise view right in front of you in the morning. It is a simple setup without windows, allowing you to feel the breeze, hear the birds, and be fully surrounded by nature.
Shared meals, share our cultural food. Or when isn't possible, we will prepare the ingredients, you can enjoy your cooking time.
This accommodation is best suited for people who are comfortable with simple living and an open-air environment.
Algo más...
The place is located in a quiet countryside area, so it is a great place to slow down and enjoy nature during your free time. You can walk around, relax by the lake, kayaking, read a book, watch the sunrise, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
The estate is in a rural area, but it's walkable to a mini market, around 15-20min walk. The nearest town is about a short drive away. Occasionally we may be able to give a ride when going to town, or volunteers may arrange e-hailing or share transport with others if needed.
Because this is a countryside, you should also be comfortable with insects, outdoor weather, and simple living conditions.
We appreciate volunteers who are proactive and enjoy contributing to the place. If you contact us, please tell us a little about yourself and how you think your skills or interests could help enhance the place.
