  Description

  We are a local family based out of Bissau, with a guest house and hostel where we also host community, cultural, and music concerts.
  
  We have full local staff who work in the reception, cleaning, maintenance, kitchen, and our garage. WorkAwayers will spend time with our staff, if you can help them practice languages as well that would be amazing. They speak Portuguese, French, and some English.
  
  We have heard great things about WorkAway from our guests and travelers, so we decided to join as well. Our guesthouse is popular spot for those traveling through West Africa overland, as there are not many other options for hostels in Bissau. Many people traveling overland visit us on their journey.
  
  Our guesthouse has several private rooms, and a 6-bed dormitory. We also have a common space & kitchen. Our large courtyard we use for concerts or music events / cultural activities.
  
  Currently we are building a covered roof top for the courtyard so we can continue to host our events in the rainy season. This is our biggest priority at the moment, so any WorkAwayers with knowledge in this area would be greatly appreciated.
  
  We have a lot of activities and projects we are working out, so we welcome all varieties of WorkAwayers to join us.
  
  Building / Construction: Help us with renovations to our courtyard project as well as general maintenance and improvements around the guesthouse.
  
  Musicians: As we are also a space for concerts and events, musicians, beat makers and such. We welcome musicians who would like to contribute something specific to our place.
  
  Mural Artists: We would love to welcome artists that can contribute some beautiful murals or designs to the guesthouse.
  
  Web Design / Graphic Artists: We are currently working on building a website, we need some updated logos and designs as well.
  
  Social Host: In the busy season we welcome social hosts to plan events and activities with our guests.
  
  Marketing / Social Media: We are happy to hear all ideas you might have how we can market our guest house and improve our social media presence online.
  
  We are all about cultural exchange so anything else you might be able to contribute to improve our place, we would love to hear from you.
