    Description

    Hello! We are looking for workawayers who are interested in country life and contact with girls. Preferably a couple who can speak some Spanish and for a minimum period of one month.

    Hello, we are Josep, Alba and our 3 daughters Amèlia (8 years old), Duna (6 years old) and Selma (3 years old). We live in the countryside in the middle of nature in a self-sufficient house and we dedicate ourselves to organic and biodynamic agriculture in Nulles (Tarragona), next to our house we have the winery where we make organic and biodynamic wines from the grapes that we grow In the farm we cultivate vineyards, almond trees, olive trees, hazelnuts, fruit trees, carob trees, cereal, a vegetable garden and we also have some animals (donkey, dog and chickens). We are looking for people who like children who want to learn about life in the country. We are people who really enjoy life in the country, and we like to share knowledge with other people. The help we need from the workawayers is for the house, the girls, the fruit trees and the garden, all for our own consumption. We have a fully equipped mobile home, ideal for 2 people (although it also has a sofa bed for a possible other person) next to our house. Our language of communication at home is Catalan, although the girls can understand Spanish.
