  Descrição

  My name's Nicholas (45yo) I am the manager of a Bed & Breakfast/backpacker (6 rooms dispatched in 3 bungalows, 24 places for hammocks in typical french amerindians huts), in a 15,000 square meter park with typical fauna, trees and flowers, by the river Maroni.
  It's located in the french Amazonia, in a town called Maripasoula.
  
  I seek volunteers to complete the team and share with us and be a part of that experience of life.
  I bought this place last year and I am the only operator to manage the site and the staff (made of a housekeeper, two gardeners and three boat drivers).
  We are located west of French Guiana, on the banks of the Maroni River, which is also the border with Suriname, at the crossroads of two essentials cultures of French Guiana: Amerindians (Wayana) and Bushinengues. we also organize boat trips on the river to discover Amerindian and bushinengue cultures and provide logistic and organization of scientific journey.
  Come join us and discover what life is , in that french part of amazonian rainforest, where you'll meet all the south america's different cultures...
