General maintenance & help with projects on a private island!
The experience
Hi! Before you send a request, please read the full description. Please bear in mind that the island is only as good as the people staying on it. Otherwise, it’s just another piece of land surrounded by water. Albeit, an awesome one!
Also, I didn't buy the island. I inherited it. I'm running and funding everything myself so please don't expect a 5-star resort. I won't have a jacuzzi for you. I have lots of baby sharks and corals though. :)

Program Details
Our kitchen is for everyone. Before arriving we advise you to bring groceries as we don't offer food on the island. In the community spirit, we may bundle our supplies and cook all together. We have a fridge you may use to store produce. Fresh beverages are available on the island.
Activities & Shift
We don't work with shifts as it's mainly general maintenance. So your work will be spread out during the day or we may schedule together when to fill in the 3h of work when you work on a project.
Rules
You become part of our crew, so make sure your energy matches that. We expect initiative and helpfulness. Whenever we have paying guests on the island, it is important to acknowledge that you are still part of the working crew.
