  Description

  I have had my place for 12 years now. Been in Costa Rica for almost 15. What started as a boutique hotel evolved into a large group venue during Covid and stayed that way . I am fairly laid back, I enjoy a healthy lifestyle, daily routines of yoga and exercise and healthy food. I am just restarting my work away page as I am in the need for a happy, positive, smiling volunteer/s that love to help and have a passion for social media, travel and adventure.
  Sirena Serena is located in Costa Rica in Tamarindo. We are on a quiet road and about 5 minute walk to the beach --We are not a hostel. We provide a unique opportunity to experience the real meaning of "Pura Vida".
  
  Our Environment provides an oppuntunity to connect with yourself, create long lasting friendships, meet travelers from around the globe and a chance to experience the unique culture of Costa Rica and of course a chance to improve your spanish language skills while volunteering as well as off site .
  
  We are looking for Volenteers that will vibe with our Pura Vida lifestyle, who are positive and always willing to help with a smile, can be a team player but a looking for a forward thinker as many projects will be completed independently .
