Traditional Nomad House

Hi,

My name is Hassan, i grew up in an oasis 12 km from Tagounite. I live in a traditional house (Kasbah) in a little nomad village in a gorgeous oasis. We have several bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, toilet and big garden.
We are happy to receive people to help us build this house. I will teach you house building, making bricks. Currently we are renovating the kitchen. We have 3 meals a day.
It's very calm here and remote and the village is mostly empty.
We also have WiFi (not free)
We work max 3 hours a day. 5 days a week.
We have goats, dogs, chickens and a cat.

We are full in June and July. You can stay till 10 June or come after 16 July.
PLEASE DON'T ANSWER SCREENING QUESTIONS.

I am happy to take you on desert tour with me and show you the desert I grew up in.
A few times a week I go to Tagounite, you can join me for shopping. There's a market twice a week.
I will take you to visit my family and you will meet my friends.

There is enough to do here like visiting tagounite, the market, desert, walking to the mountains, go to weddings, meet my family and friends.

We loved our time at Traditional Nomad House! Mohamed, Saiid and Abdu are incredible people and treated us very well from our first day, as well as cooking delicious meals for us!

The work routine was super easy, we helped with cleaning the house, collecting water, feeding the animals and maintaining the house.

I hope other volunteers enjoy this experience as much as we did! The heat here is really intense so bring sun cream and light clothing!

I feel that volunteering at Nomad House has been one of the most enriching experiences of our lives. It's an opportunity to get out of your comfort zone, see the world from a new perspective and be in contact with locals and understand their reality. For me, almost an anthropological experience. I recommend it if this is your intention.

En nuestro caso no pudimos ir en la fecha acordada y Hassan sin problema nos recibió. Al final nos terminamos quedando más tiempo e igualmente nos pareció poco. Fue sin dudas una experiencia increíble, conocimos muchas personas de diferentes lugares ya que se iban unos y enseguida llegaban otros, nos dividíamos las tareas cotidianas y todas las tardes íbamos a ver el atardecer o conocer rinconcitos de la Vila. Hassan, Abdul y Mohamed hicieron todo posible para que nos sintieramos como en casa. Recomendamos que vivan esta experiencia y que vayan al desierto, lo valió 100% . Shukran 🙏

The hosts were great. The people there were not the problem at all. The problem was I feel it is false advertising. The picture and the place that we stayed at DONT match at ALL. We stayed in an unbuilt house with no roof or AC. I just wish this was told to us beforehand otherwise I would not have gone. We ended up leaving early because it was too uncomfortable to bear. On top of that the ride there wasn’t free (which is fine) but we weren’t even told that until after.. and we didn’t have cash on us. Just little stuff like that. Again hospitality was great but the location was not great.

It took me a day or two to adapt to the primitive conditions but once the week passed I didn’t want to leave. Hassan, Ayoub and Abdul are such kind and welcoming souls and the other volunteers too. Such a great way to experience the moroccan culture especially as it was ramadan at the time. Don’t miss the desert trip as it will blow your mind❤️
