We've got a cozy shared apartment waiting for you! Each volunteer (or couple) gets their own private bedroom. The setup includes 3 bedrooms - one with a double bed and two singles - plus a shared bathroom with shower. WiFi, electricity, and a washing machine are all yours to use!
Food Situation:
You're the chef of your own adventure! Food is on you, but here's the cool part - we've got farm-fresh eggs from our happy chickens, goat milk from our friendly goats, and veggies from our garden that you can enjoy when available. Farm-to-table living at its finest!
The Work-Life Balance:
The Perks:
Daily trips to Nicoya for bakery and produce runs mean free rides if you need to shop, catch a bus, or explore! We love board game nights
Activities & Shift
We're looking for 25-30 hours of your time per week (that's about 5-6 hours a day, 5 days a week). We'd love to have you for at least 3 weeks, but no pressure - let's see how things flow!
Your Daily Adventures Include:
Animal care (feeding, watering, cleaning their spaces - they'll love you for it!)
Plant and veggie garden TLC
Property maintenance and upkeep
Fun construction and improvement projects
Helping with our rental business
Plus the occasional surprise project that keeps things interesting!
Rules
House Rules (The Fun Stuff):
Keep the shared spaces tidy and do a weekly deep clean of the apartment, including washing the linens and towels we provide. Clean up after cooking - your fellow volunteers will thank you!
Our Vibe:
We're all about peace, love, tolerance, and respect for people, the farm, and our animal friends. We have zero tolerance for violence, aggression, problem drinking, or drug use. Respect everyone's belongings - ask before borrowing!
