  Description

  Hello from Lombok! :)
  
  We are a group of young Indonesians dedicated to cultural exchange and community development. Founded by Dayat, our story is one of resilience and rebuilding. After facing challenges, including the impact of Covid, we launched an English club in our village to provide local children with the opportunity to learn English in a fun and relaxed environment.
  
  Our main focus is in Cultural Exchange: The main task we ask to our volunteer is to participate in our English Club. In your free time, you will have the opportunity to experience our community traditions, food and ways of living. Staying with the locals at their homestay and being part of our program, you will be invited to ceremonies, cooking classes, excursions and schools visits among other activities.
  
  Furthermore, as we revitalize our sustainable tourism company, FeelLombok, we're seeking support in different skills such as web development, design, photography, painting, tour ideas… creative and proactive individuals are welcome! If you share our passion for sustainable tourism and environmental awareness, your presence will contribute to helping the community understand the gravity of our ecological situation.
  
  In summary, we invite volunteers comfortable with kids and English speakers (fluent or not) to join us in teaching and practicing at the English club. You are also welcome to work in other side projects as mentioned above. We will do our best to facilitate free activities or excursions letting you explore off-the-beaten-track destinations and discover the beauty of Lombok
  
  Join our amazing team including Sani, Rina, Adi, Rinaldi, Carolina, Nyoman, Memek, Ummi and Wayan, from Muslim and Hindu communities in Central Lombok, as we work towards bringing back our company and growing our English club project.

  Hébergement

  Explore our available homestays in the village, offering diverse accommodations. Whether you prefer solitude, the warmth of a local family, or the camaraderie of fellow workawayers, we've got you covered.
  
  Bathroom facilities cater to local customs, with options of a Western-style or traditional setup featuring a squat toilet, bucket, and water tap. While hot water may not be available, an authentic experience is guaranteed.
  
  Wif is available in some places, not all. We are working on it.
  
  Our vibrant "basecamp," situated just a short distance from the homestays, is the perfect gathering spot to socialize and create lasting memories.

  We are asking for a contribution to cover the costs of 2 meals (breakfast and dinner) and accommodation.

  If you do not have access to a motorbike we can help you arrange a renting or bring you around for the activities arranged with the group in exchange for gas expenses.

  Cet hôte fait payer des frais

  en savoir plus

  Pourquoi workaway.info autorise-t-il certains hôtes à faire payer des frais ?

  Dans les pays en voie de développement (où la plupart des hôtes sont engagés dans des associations caritatives ou des programmes de développement au service de la communauté locale), certains de nos hôtes peuvent demander aux workawayers de faire un petit don pour aider la famille d'accueil ou l’association (souvent moins de 5 dollars par jour). Workaway n'autorise cette demande de don que si le don va directement à la famille ou à l'association et s'il ne sert qu’à couvrir les frais de séjour des volontaires. (Les annonces où l’hôte demande des frais seront clairement identifiées dans la liste d'annonces).
  Nous n'autorisons en aucun cas les annonces d'agences, d’intermédiaires ou de projets qui nous semblent vouloir profiter des volontaires.
