DEAR WORKAWAYERS, THANKS ALOT FOR ALL YOUR REQUESTS AND YOUR INTERESTS ON OUR ECO-CAMP. BECAUSE OF RECENT SITUATION WE DO NOT ACCEPT ANY WORKAWAYERS TILL THE NEW ORDERS. DO NOT HESITATE TO STUDY THIS PAGE BEFORE TO SEND US A REQUEST:

We are a team of local boys who work hard to make connection with world by the real human contact here in our village, Kafountine, Casamance region. I Bacary with my mom and my little sister Mansi, manage the eco-camp. Boys are mostly from the same village. They are student and not always present here but when they are in village they help a lot. So in their absence we need your help. Responsible of Communication is Nahid (a French-Iranian girl). She will answer all your questions and help you reach here in village then you will be with me and my team.
The idea of building this eco-camp is to achieve different simple goals like developing the knowledge of local people about the other cultures, the sustainable tourism and permaculture. Related to this we search the workawayers who can help us to organise the different events for Kafountine people with all ages (especially children) and tourists.
Music is our passion and one of the memorable night here is local musiciens who play the traditional instrument "djembe"! So any type of musiciens are very welcomed.

Melina and Juan, a young, active and kind couple who respectfully worked with us and helped each time we needed. Cooking with family, gardening and playing with children was their main activities here. We would like to thanks them here again for all they did and the stationery staff they brought for children.

Mon copain et moi ne sommes restés malheureusement que 8 jours chez Bacary, mais on aurait voulu rester plus ! On a vraiment apprécié notre temps passé, avec les enfants et la famille de Bacary et Mission, qui sont vraiment top. Nous avons aidé un peu avec le jardin et on a appris des techniques de permaculture. Kaffountine est aussi super et avec… read more

Nahid, a genius actress who would be well known in the world, by her. She arrived with Santa’s bag, has lived with motivation and kindness and left with lots of promises!
Children are happy of the stationary staff she brought, the place is organised better by her and all her promisses even more, are fulfilled.
Thanks for your great work.

It was my first workaway experience and first time in Africa. Happy of my choice because Kafountine Region is really beautiful with many things to learn and also lots of needs to give a hand to them.
I had a really short time to stay in this ecocamp but even in these 5 days I have learned a lot about
teamwork,
gardening,
medical plants,… read more
working with children,
ecotourism,
cooking and many other interesting activities.

In exchange, I with the team create an event for 15 children of primary school (5_8 years) to
"read stories about tourism and traveling, playing games, making handcrafts and at the end we gave them some gifts containing school affaires which is one of the most important needs of children there. (I have bought all the affaires in Paris as a gift, but I found after that is better to go with money and buy everything there in Kafountine. like this you can buy more quantities with less amount for more children). I helped them to renew the ecocamp entrance decoration by painting and installing the new objects and also helped Bacary ( Manager) to update all the social media of the ecocamp. The other activity I had enjoyed a lot, was giving a formation of two hours to the young team about Tourism and how to be a good host and they were really keen to learn and always taking the notes!
we spend lots of time with Bacary's family together to do many activities like shopping in the daily bazaar, cooked vegetarian dish for me, Listen to our needs and life stories, sharing informations with younger members who are interested to know everything about other cultures and also learn you all they know, washed my clothes by hand in a traditional way and learned how to use water as less as possible, dancing in their traditional/modern way, playing waterpolo in the sea :) with many children of 10_15 years old and also visiting the touristique sites of Kafountine region.

As a solo women I had never problem about security in Kafountine and I was always accompanied by the team. They have Bicycle, Motorcycle and an air-conditioned 4*4 car to move where/when you want and you will pay of course in a reasonable price. There is medical center near the ecocamp and also pharmacie. everything in a basic level is possible to buy in all the supermarkets (boutique) in Kafountine but if you have a special diet/needs should ask Bacary before your accommodation(as I asked for vegetarian dishes for all my lunches and they were so nice to prepare their best dishes for me). For Breakfast and dinner we shared the cost and we cooked together. I had all my meals with family and friends and never was alone! so happy of that!

They organised the airport transport for my both arrival and departure and I payed them (do not recommended to go alone and better to use the transport because village is far from the airport and it's really complicated to negotiate on price with taxi drivers).

Highly recommended and please go there if you are really ready to give hand in everything and also have sth (Social games, books, nice girly staff, handcraft packages and etc. ... ) for the most important part of the village, Children and young guys.

Do not hesitate to contact me if you may need.
A big thanks to Bacary and his team and a special thanks to his family for this nice experience.

She arrived when two other workawayers were leaving. A memorable music night to welcome her and saying bye to the others. The first day she approved her enthusiasm, a hyperactive motivated nice nurse! She was always present for gardening, cooking with family and helping a lot in construction of the new rooms. Thanks a lot Gabrielle for your help… read more

Un petit havre de paix...
L'hôte et sa famille nous reçoit avec tout le respect et la générosité que l'on connaît des sénégalais.
Le jardin de permaculture qu'il a réussi à faire dans le centre du village est impressionnant. Il lui a fallu beaucoup de courage et de volonté pour mener au bout son projet et c'est une réussite. Jardin varié,… read more

Tobias, An open minded young man was a good friend . During the absence of three boys of our team, who are studying in the big cities, he was a good replacement for helping us creating variety of entertainment for the kids. By Tobias we learned how to play some social/group games which he brought with himself. He was so efficient in teamwork and… read more

Unfortunately I was only here for a short while, but my time there was amazing, filled with new experiences and great hospitality. Work in the garden was limited, due to its current affairs but beautiful still and I had great fun playing football and other games I brought over with the kids. The room was perfect and Bakary and Mission took great… read more
