Hi ---como estaas
Now I have a lot of work in the garden and I need someone who is experieced in water instalation. For example handles,electronic/automatic system and plumping. Or a carpenter who can help me creating a garden bench.
I am Olga from Madrid. Five years ago I moved to Andalucía where the life is easier and the weather is always sunny!
I traveled a lot years ago... sometimes as a workawayer and I always enjoy sharing coexistence and experiences, meals ,information, excursions…etc...with people from others countries and speak English, French and Spanish.
If you want to experience this fantastic area of Andalucia and learn things about Spanish lifestyle come to help me in my projects. My home is in Coín,about 30 km away from Malaga.
Any help will be wonderfull and welcoming
I need volunteers who like the countryside, that they are not afraid of the heat (there is a swimming pool) and that they love dogs.
I like stays of two weeks minimum.... Tasks: Watering, cleaning the garden, walking Luca (my lovely dog) around and build or create something creative in the garden.There are materials and many ideas..
Of course if is possibly I would like a mature,serious and responsible person with experience in DIY with skills in carpentry, garden, electric...plaster.....Young people with little experience but with energy and desire to learn and help are welcome as well. You will have free time for yourself and to travel around Andalucia ..
I work part time during the high season in Torremolinos and sometimes I will be away few days.
