    Description

    2 years ago I started building with help of some locals, a tiny home in the woods of Honduras, in a town called Siguatepeque (more specifically in a village called El Achiote). With the help of some workaways, it has gotten into a beautiful relaxation spot. It has a deck with a magnificent view of some hills full of pines forest, also ideal for long hikes, there is a creek 10 minutes walking. Siguatepeque is located in the center of Honduras, connected by the CA-4 road (the one which connects all Central America). The home is finished, but there is a plot of land next to it, where to build something nice. We are in the designing (ideas or sketches) phase. Hence, we are looking for someone creative who loves architecture or does architecture already, for sketching some ideas on what could be added (like extra rooms, or a play/social area, a dorm or an open studio). We don't ask for any professional drawings done, just some bright ideas on paper.

    Please check out the workaway calendar for availability, will keep it very updated.

    Meeting point will be in San Pedro Sula

    Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

    You will enjoy Central American living, a sunny yard, a good deck, pool, learn more spanish, we can practice every evening if you ask me and I can recommend you the best spots in the country, if we have time we can go to the waterfalls, lake kayaking or beach together

    In your time off you can either explore Siguatepeque (there are some nice pools 5 minute walk from the lodges and a small river/creek 20 min walk) or explore the country itself, there are nice beaches around (Tela), big rivers (Rio Cangrejal river rafting), close to the wood cabins you will find the waterfalls (Pulhapanzak) and lake Yojoa where you can do kayaking and explore some natural reserves, the Bay Islands (Utila and Water Cay). With me, you can go to some breweries (in San Pedro Sula) play card games/board games, netflix, laugh :) drink rum, chill, talk about life or marathon series and definitely craft beers. And if you teach me an awesome local meals from your country, I will thank you so much :D

    Siguatepeque is a newcoming city which is growing at a fast speed recently, the center counts with multiple cafes, small restaurants like forno pizzerias, good sushi and good food, great supermarkets and lots of lovely spots. The tiny home site is located in a village called Achiote, 7 minutes drive from the main road and like 12 minute drive to the city center of Siguatepeque, a bus runs down and up to the center every couple of hours, in the city center there is everything.
    Bear in mind that the place is not a touristic hotel/lodge, that there is no other "staff" involved .
