Description
My name is Manikkathir and I've been running a hostel at tanah rata, Cameron Highlands,
In our hostel we have only 2 workers: me in the role of hostel manager and the housekeeper who cleans the dorms, common area, 2 kitchens and toilets. For the workawayer’s we try to provide tasks they are comfortable with doing, for example, if there is another job they feel more suited to then we can arrange for a change. I am more than happy to arrange with you tasks you would prefer if you ask me or have an idea on something.
We're looking for people who can stay for minimum two weeks, help out mainly with reception duties and socialising with guests and helping in scooter driving. Help with gardening and wood work is welcome, as well as any other skills you can provide
We also welcome artists that could make our place like a little more cozy.
In return:
We can provide free accommodation in the Dorm's for Women with a capacity of 6 people. For the men then accommodation is in the common dorms, but if the women would prefer to go into the common dorm that can be arranged as well.
We provide ingredients for meals including simple breakfast such as bread, kaya (Malaysian jam) and eggs; then rice, noodles and a large variety of vegetables (sometimes fruits) for lunchtimes and dinner. These are simple ingredients, and eat some time we are arrange food with our family cooking as well!!!!!!!In your free time you guys can go to the bar, enjoy with us playing cards or pool and free use of the scooters in your free days, if the scooters are available. We can teach you to ride a scooter as well!
Since the hostel is still quite old, there's lots of room for improvement, so if you have any ideas on how to make the hostel better feel free to share!
Please keep your expectations realistic as this is a hostel and so you will be sharing a space with other guests.
