Yoga Teacher at Beachfront Hostel in Ayampe, Ecuador Volunteer

ABOUT US:

We own a beach-front hostel that only accepts long-term reservations (a 1 week minimum is required) that way our guests can truly immerse themselves in the peaceful, beautiful, and relaxing town of Ayampe, Ecuador. Together, we strive to provide a haven in a foreign country. for the traveler who desires their independence and privacy, while still sharing with other travellers. We look forward to welcoming you to your new home!

DESCRIPTION:

We are always looking for Yoga Teacher volunteers throughout the year to help us with the following:

1. Yoga Classes:
We offer yoga classes for our guests year round. This volunteer work includes teaching yoga classes 4 days per week. In exchange for the yoga classes, we provide free accommodation in one of our five rooms (~ 4 hours of work/week)

2. Help in the Hostel when we are unable to be in the hostel:
In addition to teaching the yoga classes, we would like our volunteers to help us in the hostel a bit. As we do not live in the hostel (but NEXT door to), we prefer to always have a set of “eyes” in the hostel to oversee the guests or any problems that may arise. This includes welcoming the guests, giving them tips of things to do or where to eat, collecting payments (if we are not able to), answering any guest questions, etc. Additionally, we prefer to have more pro-active volunteers, by this we mean, if the kitchen lacks dish washing soap to put more soap in the kitchen, if guests need extra towels to give them extra towels, if there is a leak to clean up the water and notify one of us, if a light bulb is out in a guest´s room to replace the light bulb, if there are lots of mosquito after heavy rain to burn palo santo, etc.

Additionally, we would like to clarify that while this is volunteering, it is STILL a vacation for you. We want you to have fun, go surfing, travel, play, explore, enjoy life, etc!! This job is not, by any means, one that you may never leave the hostel. More than anything your presence means a lot to our guests, and to us, as any extra set of eyes, comfort, and help. We are normally at the hostel interacting with our guests as well, but at times we must go to the city or take a small vacation ourselves. We always make sure to help and support our volunteers, so this is not a job that you will be doing alone. (~ 2 hours of work/per day)

Between the yoga classes and helping in the hostel, it is a max of 14 hours of work per week in exchange for free accommodation. Please note that since we are a long-term hostel, we do not have guests coming and going very often. Normally, we have guests that stay for at least 1 month, so attending to our guests is not a huge part of the work at our hostel. The most important role you have is to teach the yoga classes and to have someone in the hostel who are an extra set of eyes for us.

We only accept volunteers that can stay a minimum of 1 month, ideally for 3 months. If you want to volunteer for 6 months or more, that would be awesome too!
