  Description

  Hello everyone,
  
  My name is Yến and I live with my family in the mountains of northern Vietnam, in Tả Phìn, Sa Pa, Lào Cai. Our house is located in the middle of beautiful valleys in a quiet village. We are about 1500m above sea level, so the air is fresh and nice, and the scenery is beautiful, with rice terraces and mist between the hills.
  
  We run a winery and a homestay. We make delicious wine from local fruits and berries, and we have a large garden where we grow flowers and vegetables. We have recently built a guesthouse with great facilities like a sauna where we can accommodate groups of guests.
  Important Note!
  We do not pay for medical care in the hospital, therefore we only accept volunteers who have medical insurance and can take care of themselves in case of problems.
  Yu introduce yourself. How old are you? where are you frome?
  What can you do for us. We need. help with gardening, gardening in Vietnam is different from other countries.
  We need help blogging or communicating about our winery and homestay.

  》Update:
  We need now help with blogging and marketing our homestay and our products. We will prioritize volunteers who can help with these as well, among those listed below. Please mention in your application if you can help us with these.《
  
  First, we need help in our garden. We have a big and beautiful garden with vegetables and beautiful flowers, and we need help to take care of it. It is important for volunteers to have a general level of fitness, as gardening can be tiring for some people.
  Second, my family and I want to learn to speak English better, so we would like our volunteers to teach us conversational English.
  Occasionally we may also need help around the winery, but we hire people to do the main work there.
  You can also help with our foreign guests by having conversations with them as we are not fluent in English.
  
  5 hours of work in two parts: 3 hours of work in the morning and 2 hours of work in the afternoon.
  We are also flexible, if you need changes in the working hours, we can discuss it.
