Description
My name is Ana. I am 60 years old and I have worked during 38 years like clinical psychologist. 5 years ago I decided to change my life. I left my house in Valencia center and I bought a big house in the mountains. I have some animals like 2 dogs, 4 cats, 10 cocks, 1 goats, 1 pony and 2 donkeys.
Sometimes I need help for some things like keep the animals, to plant the Grove, to clean the garden, the house too ... Now I need help sanding and painting some garden furniture, repairing some fences and reinforcing the perimeter, cleaning the pool, maintaining stabbles and take care of the animals... My house is in middle of Natural Park in the Calderona. It's a very quiet and natural place without cars, noises or people.
I prefer quiet people than noiser and always clean and tidy at home. I buy and cook all kind of food; meat, fish, vegetable, lacteos and eggs. No toxic character , please.
I want advise that the workawayers interesting to come that i need a copy of passport before the travel and health interntional insurance for security of both.
