Help Rebuild a Peaceful Desert Guesthouse in a Berber Village 🌞

La experiencia

After rare and heavy floods damaged our Berber desert village, we are rebuilding and redecorating our peaceful guesthouse near the beautiful village of Tagounite, at the gateway to the Sahara.
We are looking for kind-hearted volunteers to join us in this process — to help us restore, create, and bring life back to our home. It’s a chance to experience authentic Berber life, learn traditional building techniques, and become part of our community🌿

Programa detallado

Salam! We are Karim and Rachid, and our family warmly invites you to experience desert life in the Berber city of Tagounite 🇲🇦☀️

Last year, strong rains and floods destroyed large parts of our mud-brick guesthouse. Now we’re focused on rebuilding it with love and community spirit — and we’d love your help!

You’ll learn how to make adobe bricks, build walls, and restore the house using traditional Berber techniques.
We also have a small family farm where we grow dates, grains, and plants for our animals. With more rain, we hope to see the fields come back to life again. 🌾

Recently, with the help of past volunteers, we started a composting project — something very new for our area. We’re learning and experimenting together! 🌱

When not working, you’ll have plenty of time to explore Tagounite and the desert, enjoy Berber tea, local cuisine, music, and traditions, or simply relax under the vast desert sky full of stars ✨

In our home, you won’t just be a guest — you’ll be family. We believe in equality, kindness, and respect, and welcome everyone with open hearts. Here, you’ll find peace, learning, and genuine connection. ❤️

Come experience the magic of the Sahara, the beauty of Berber culture, and the strength of a community rebuilding together.


💫 What You’ll Gain

Learn traditional Berber building techniques
Experience authentic desert life
Practice Arabic or French
Enjoy local music, food, and hospitality
Become part of a community full of warmth and resilience
