    We are Marc, Victoria, and our little Blai. Marc is a native and lifelong resident of Palafrugell, Victoria was born in Argentina, and Blai saw the light right here on the Costa Brava. After living and working in various countries, we have decided to return to our roots and settle in this beautiful corner of the world.

    We are passionate about sports and outdoor activities, from climbing to diving, surfing, kitesurfing, sailing, cycling, hiking, and more. We love sharing our passion for active living and, at the same time, showing you the local traditions and everyday life on the Costa Brava.

    Recently, we acquired a charming apartment with a garden in Palafrugell and we are excited to start this new chapter in our lives. But before fully settling in, we need a bit of help to renovate and beautify our home.

    We are looking for one or two enthusiastic volunteers to join us on this exciting adventure. The tasks are varied and simple: painting walls, changing floors, making some repairs, improving the garden, and more. But that's not all! In exchange for your help, which would consist of about 20 hours a week, we also invite you to share unique experiences with us. We can explore the area together, kayak in crystal-clear waters, discover secret beaches, and much more.
