Description
We, Julie and Mark, have a varied background, ranging from horse riding instructor, Squash professional to founding/managing partners of an international HR technology start-up
Past experiences include property self-renovation projects or working within the construction industry. Having seen amazing local derelict properties, steeped in history, we decided to renovate such a house, which has taken us on a path of renovation, followed by proving serviced accommodation i.e. well being holidays
We have several possibilities for accommodation within a small village of 400+ people. The town is surrounded by mountains, incredible wild life, to fresh water wells. Depending on your appetite, we can offer raw food ( Julie is a true vegan), to typical Spainish dishes
We are very flexible to how we work togetherTypes of help and learning opportunities
DIY and building projectsCultural exchange and learning opportunities
Julie and I do attempt to interact with all colleagues and we are usually doing actual hands on work along side. This automatically creates a bond and having gained a number of years experience in Spain, we can answer or explain how things are done locally
Being a family of 3 ( Max is 14), all with different diets, evening can mean many saucepans on the stove, but we are comfortable in proving various food choices
Obviously, we don't know it all and we are happy to learn from our guests. This doesn't just apply to construction, but also to our business created for the wellbeing of people i.e "". Here we offer a whole range of services such as yoga, walking, food etc.Host offers payment in line with the minimum wage
