Description
I own a little home stay on Langkawi island. I have only one room available. I love to host, cooking, singing, gardening and I also run a little massage studio at my homestay.
I am growing herbs, fruits and vegetables. I raise chickens and get their eggs.
I have 4 lovely dogs and 1 cat, who are the main attraction to my animal loving homestay guests. They 'work' for me to keep my homestay guests entertained. I also cater for prebooked visitors for dine-in or massage from time to time.
I am looking for workawayers who are dedicated, tidy, organized, loving animals and not afraid of learning new tasks, getting dirty, responsible, independent and passionate about the work that I am doing to assist me.
Minimum commitment is two weeks.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre

You only need to help me 4-5 hours a day 5 days a week with the following tasks:
1) Gardening
Raking the leaves, cutting grass, pruning trees, planting herbs, flowers and viegges. Water them twice a day.
2) Cleaning
General cleaning of the house, including taking the garbage out.
3) Laundry
I have a washing machine. Just put them in and then sun drying. Fold them nicely and put them accordingly into the cupboard.
4) Taking care of the animals: 4 dogs, 1 cat, 5-10 chickens and some fish in the water feature.
Prepare their food and feed them once a day. Walking the dogs everyday. Basically taking care of all animals overall well being.
5) Building or fixing the house and other maintenance work from time to time. Building, plumbing or electrical experience is a plus point but not compulsory.Langues

Autres infos...
1) You will need to have an international license and rent your own scooter to move around. Grabs are easily available. The nearest shop for meals is about 30mins walk out to the main street.
2) I have Wifi at my place, but you will still need to get a local sim card for communication through WhatsApp in case when you are out.
3) My place is LGBTQIA friendly, serve pork and alcohol, if you have an issue, then you are not suitable to stay.
4) You can cook in the kitchen. I will prepare only basic dry food and ingredients such as rice, cooking oil, instant noodles, biscuits etc. You can get fresh herbs, eggs, veggies from the garden. Other than that you need to get on your own.
5) If you are a vegan, you will still need to prepare meat based food for my dogs and cats, include washing chicken heads, livers, feet... etc. You may also be required to destroy termites nest, hornet nest, killing of pests with insecticide etc. If you think you are uncomfortable of doing so, then it is best not to come.
6) Experience is not a must, but the right attitude, humility and willingness to learn new things are.
7) Moderation is the key for a harmony living. If you have a one sided mind and hard to deal with, it's better to go separate ways.
8) Exchange unpaid work with free accommodation and meals is not volunteering, true volunteering you do not expect anything in return. Therefore I prefer to call you a workawayer, rather than a volunteer. Therefore, your commitment to fulfill above requirements are important, as to avoid any mismatch of expectations and unhappiness for both parties.Informations complémentaires
