The Experience

Travelers are welcome to experience local life in Malaysia while helping with simple housekeeping like cleaning, sweeping, mopping, and keeping the house organized. In return, you’ll have a cozy place to stay, with local tips and sometimes a chance to explore Penang together, like Love Lane at night. Tasks are light, just a few hours a day, no special skills needed — only respect, cleanliness, and a friendly attitude.

Staying with Maria was such a lovely and special experience. She welcomed me with so much kindness and generosity, offering me a cozy private room more like Couchsurfing than a usual volunteering arrangement. In the morning, she made me a warm cup of coffee and her open and friendly nature made me feel truly at home. At first, I was a little unsure because she had no reviews yet, but everything turned out to be completely genuine and trustworthy. I'm so thankful to Maria for sharing her beautiful heart and creating such a warm and caring space. She is simply amazing! RECOMMEND!!!💗
