  Description

  Gordon is a woodworker who designs and builds kitchens, doors, windows and furniture. Jamie was a sailing instructor and since the birth of their daughter does mostly electrical and AC work. We recently purchased a piece of land that we are working on turning into a garden forest with sustainable homes. We are in the very begining stages and welcome lots of fresh ideas and helping hands!

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We will show you around the island a little and give you rides when we can. Mostly you will be on your own to explore, hike and swim. We like to go on boat sometimes on weekends (once a month). And will include you in dinner and playing music usually one night a week. Learn(and/or teach) about gardening in the tropics, local cuisine and sustainable living.

  Aide

  Lots of gardening, planting trees, chipping wood. Help with some building projects is always a possibility.
  
  We will bring stuff so that you can make breakfast in the morning. We will bring a packed lunch for you on work days. 3-4 hours a day, 5 days a week is expected. Dinner's and off days you will be on your own for food, but can help yourself to anything growing on the property of course!
  
  Also, anyone who would like to spend part of their time working on boat repair, we always have plenty of that! Dinghy that could be used with a little experience.
