    Description

    I am a Registered Nurse, from Liverpool and have lived in Spain for over four years.

    I'm looking for a person or people who can paint walls, ceilings and furniture. If you can help assemble flat pack furniture, that's a bonus. You're expected to keep the place clean, help with cooking and any chores. You will work up to 5 hours a day, for 5 days.

    Meals or food are provided. I can cook or you can cook and use anything in the fridge.
    I'm not sure if I can cater for you if you have allergies, medical contraindications or intolerances. Let's talk about it though.

    You can come with me when I go to Iyengar yoga, in Órgiva, twice a week.
    Sometimes I go away for weekends, you can stay in my place, when I'm not there.

    I don’t smoke, drink or take drugs. It's ok if you do though (on the terrace).

    Happy to discuss you coming to stay, so get in touch.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Salobreña is a Granada coastal town that gets busy during the summer months. I'm close to the beach and town.
    You can have peace and quiet, work from here or immerse yourself in Spanish life.
    There's a cultural centre and library nearby. There’s plenty of cafes, bars, supermarkets and social events in the town.
    There's weekly markets, rastros and an eco market once a month.
    You can travel to Granada, Malaga and Almeria easily from here, by bus.
    I have a car and can take you to places in the area, with enough notice.

    I travel to Òrgiva at least twice a week, where there are plenty of alternative things going on.
