  ***Only breakfast is Included
  Work-traders receive a 20% discount on any additional items at our Vegan/GF eatery. Complimentary public yoga classes and shared housing with other work-traders (when available) at our jungle retreat center is provided as compensation. Your rustic shared house has an equipped shared kitchen and shared hot water bathrooms/showers.
  
  The expected exchange is around 20-25 hours of work weekly based on a task-assigned system. We use the task organization system online called "Asana".
  
  Our wellness center is nestled into the jungle area of Puerto Viejo: an original, reggae, surf town on the southern tip of Costa Rica. This is both a jungle lodge as well as a yoga retreat and training center. The location offers ocean views, wildlife interaction, organic farming, easy access to the bustling city below, as well as ample room for relaxation.
  
  Puerto Viejo itself is a close community that enjoys embracing nature throughout the day, whether that be a $1 bus-ride to one of the neighboring National Parks in Manzanillo or Cahuita or a relaxing day on one of the local beaches (ie. Playa Negra or Cocles). At night the city sparks with a fire show at local bars or live music performed by local artists.
  
  The goal of our center is to provide a safe, near-to-nature sanctuary to reconnect with yourself and natural world around you. There are many ways of doing that here!
  
  Depending on what position you are applying for you may learn: marketing skills for the wellness field, meet members of the local wellness community, get sneak peeks at the back end of the retreat, yoga studio, and yoga teacher training industry, learn about alternative parenting/childcare in the Caribbean and more!
  
  You will interact with local, full-time employees, in some case work side-by-side with them and be managed by the owners or management of the facility.
