Casa Webo is a family home that we, Eduardo, Nayeli, and Beatriz, inherited upon the death of our parents. Eduardo runs the space.
We decided to open the house to the community in such a way that Eduardo works with local schools. We also occasionally welcome creative people interested in learning about the work Eduardo does with food and medicinal plants.
The volunteer will help us continue to improve the space.

Description: Welcoming volunteers has been an activity that has drained me of too much energy. Mainly because they haven't had enough cultural experience or humility to adapt to the reality I offer them to see. Being rude to them isn't my thing. I prefer to educate them. The requested fee is to cover the food expenses of the volunteer and of the people I will introduce them to. If you can't pay that fee, we can find a way for you not to pay.

We are located in the northeast of Puerto Escondido in the town of Santiago Cuixtla, municipality of Santos Reyes Nopala, Oaxaca, Mexico.
We are located about 1.5 h - 3 h (depending on the mode of transport) from Puerto Escondido. The community has 1,500 inhabitants.
Public transport begins around 6 AM and ends around 6 PM.
The way to get from Puerto Escondido is the following:
1. Take the taxi that goes to Santos Reyes Nopala at the Puerto Escondido tourist terminal (not far from the Benito Juárez market). The cost is 100 pesos (about 6 USD) and the travel time is 1 h 15 min
2. Once in Nopala take the transport to Santiago Cuixtla. It costs 30 pesos (about 2 USD) and the transfer is 15 min.
The house is in the center of the town, practically where the transport will drop you off. The town is small, we all know each other. You can ask for Casa Webo or Eduardo Loaeza. My phone number is +52 595 101 7607.
What we offer:
You will have access to all areas of the house, including the terrace, the bathtub, the resting areas, the outdoor dining area, the kitchen and the garden.
