  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We welcome open-minded people who can think 'out of the box' and are eager to help create an idyllic 'back to nature,' self-sustainable oasis.
  
  We have a very open spiritual approach and welcome those who share an interest in using natural insecticides – we're looking for someone who perhaps has alternative ways/methods of “healing” the animals and land.
  
  There will be enough time to explore the desert, and the ocean – these trips will be well organised by us. These trips will help those learn about all the different cultures in Namibia, and why Namibia is so amazingly unique.
  
  There are plenty of projects we need help with - such as building new pig enclosures, cattle walkways, building renovations, mechanical repairs, landscaping and gardening.
  
  There's plenty to learn about the Namibian culture on our farm, and off it.

  Volunteers will be staying directly on the farm with everything in walking distance of approximately 600m. All activities are located on the farm. As mentioned, trips in namibia will be organised by us.
  
  There are plenty of projects that we need help with, such as building new pig enclosures, and cattle walkways, building renovations, mechanical repairs, landscaping and gardening as well as helping in the kitchen to prepare their own meals. Please note - we do not sell meals to anyone. We simply create meals together as part of teamwork.
  
  We would appreciate someone who knows what to do and can oversee certain projects as well as give us ideas for improvements.
  
  An added benefit - we'd appreciate someone who can give us some “know-how” on hydroponics – we would like to start that due to the severe drought we have currently in Namibia.
  
  We believe that teamwork makes the dream work.
  
  If you’re passionate about nature, farming, and experiencing a simpler way of life, we’d love to hear from you.
