Detalhes

Hola! I’m Dayana 😊 I'm a workawayer too, and I truly believe in what this community is all about, so I'm thrilled to become a host!

My cozy home is located in the city of Ensenada, Baja California (75 miles from the border with the US). The neighborhood is quiet and well connected by public transportation/uber, or even walking! so you can explore the city every day :)

I’m a proud local who loves my city! I’ve been showing travelers around for years now because I enjoy sharing everything that makes my hometown special. Ensenada is a beautiful coastal town with the perfect balance, there’s plenty to do for tourists, but it still keeps that local charm with amazing hidden gems to explore. You can walk around downtown, chill at the beach, check out cool cafés, or try the best local food!

I also love hiking and staying active, so you’re welcome to join me whenever I go on an adventure! I want you to have an amazing time here, just like I did when I traveled as a volunteer. This is my way of paying it forward for all the incredible experiences I’ve had (and still have) while traveling 💖

I work remotely, and there are days when I might not be available. Therefore, the assistance required will be divided between helping at my home and contributing to my parent's project, both of which are located just 5 minutes apart. Transportation will be provided for those days. In exchange for your help, we provide accommodation and meals.

I have a tiny Chihuahua called Joey! He’s 6 years old, super friendly, and a true little explorer. We'll do our best to make sure you feel at home and get a real taste of our culture.

Oh, and one more thing! My parents have a jacuzzi on their terrace, perfect for a nice chill session after work, so don’t forget your swimsuit! ✨

Atividades & Turnos

Your help will be divided between two places, depending on the tasks needed: my home and my parents' urban garden, which is just 5 minutes away.

1. Details about the help at my parent's project 🌱:

My dad is a true handyman who loves carpentry and building things, and my mom is passionate about gardening. They are both retired and have started an urban garden at their house where they do composting (all the neighbors bring their organic waste) and have developed their own water recycling system.

The tasks here usually include:
✔️ Gardening (planting, weeding, watering)
✔️ Renovating and cleaning the space
✔️ Helping with composting and sustainability projects
✔️ Assisting with small construction or creative projects

We’d love to host someone with experience in gardening, permaculture, or eco-friendly design, but if you’re simply passionate about nature, eager to learn, proactive, and full of ideas, you’re more than welcome to join! 😊

2. Details about the help at my house 🏠:

I’m 31 years old and spent most of my 20s traveling, but now I’m back in my hometown, enjoying time with family. Since I work remotely, I don’t socialize as much as I used to, and I love learning from people of different backgrounds and life experiences, which is one of the reasons I joined Workaway as a host!

My house is still undergoing some renovations, so there might be small tasks related to that, but what I’d love the most is for you to share something you’re passionate about! If you can teach me a new skill, language, art, cooking, yoga, or anything fitness-related, I’d love to learn from you. Let me know what excites you in your application!

We ask for 25 hours of help per week, and we’re flexible with the schedule because we want you to enjoy your time here exploring!

Regras

Please be aware that we are a smoke and drug-free house. Additionally, I personally avoid red meat, so I kindly ask that it’s not cooked here (but don’t worry, there are delicious taco spots nearby! 🌮)
