Description
Hello!! My name is Oihane and I love nature. I really like mountain sports, specially rock climbing and whenever I have time I escape to the mountains.
I really want to continue learning things related to everyday life such as solving problems that may arise at home (plumbing, electricity, furniture arrangement, work in the orchard...) and developing my artistic side. In other Workaway projects I have learned a little about carpentry and masonry.
I studied Occupational Therapy and at this moment I am trying to learn everything possible to combine my profession with my passion, nature.
I am calm, responsible, respectful person and involved in the causes I believe in. Therefore, I would like to collaborate on sustainable projects, created by people with good intentions and alternative ideas.

He estado mes y medio en aquí y desde el principio me he sentido como en casa. Acogida por el amigo Paco, bajo los cuidados de la maravillosa Charo, acompañada por el siempre disponible vecino Jose Daniel y además, he podido sentirme habitante del pueblo y su majísima alcaldesa María. Mi experiencia la podría describir en dos etapas… read more distintas. La primera fue compartida con Matteo y Saul, dos personas maravillosas con las que he hecho mucha amistad y he sentido complicidad a la hora de trabajar en equipo en los trabajos que nos dejaba Paco. Junto a ellos aprendí carpintería y albañilería sencilla, a mantener el huerto y los cuidados diarios de las gallinas. Además, hemos tenido la suerte de compartir una gran pasión por la escalada, lo que ha hecho aun más especial mi experiencia y nos ha permitido crear amistad con gente local. La segunda etapa empezó al marcharse mis dos compañeros y con la llegada de Tan, una chica australiana muy auténtica y natural, con la que he compartido largas y profundas charlas. Con ella nos funcionó muy bien el repartirnos las tareas, ya que sobre todo tuvimos que lijar y barnizar los suelos y maderas, por lo que cada una se adjudicaba una tarea y así íbamos tachando la lista.
Paco es una persona auténtica, un gran escalador estilo “old school” y con un corazón tan grande que no le cabe en el pecho. Siempre se ha preocupado por que no nos falte de nada en la casa, y en todo momento ha tenido interés por compartir su conocimiento adquirido en miles de experiencias vividas a lo largo de su vida.
Ha sido mi primer workaway y me ha encantado. Ha sido una experiencia única, llena de aprendizajes y emociones bonitas.
Muchas gracias Paco, y muchas gracias al pueblo por acogernos tan bien. Espero volver a vernos pronto.

I have been here for a month and a half and from the beginning I felt at home. Welcomed by my friend Paco, under the care of the wonderful Charo, accompanied by the always available neighbor Jose Daniel and in addition, I have been able to feel like a real neighbor of the town and its wonderful mayor María. I also could describe my experience in two different stages. The first was shared with Matteo and Saul, two wonderful people with whom I have made a great friendship and have felt complicity when working as a team on the jobs that Paco left us. I learned carpentry and simple masonry, how to maintain the garden and the daily care of the chickens. Furthermore, we have been lucky for shareing a great passion for climbing, which has made my experience even more special and has allowed us to meet local people. The second stage began when my two mates left and with the arrival of Tan, a very authentic and natural Australian girl, with whom I have shared long and deep conversations. With her it worked very well for us to divide the tasks, we had to sand and varnish the floors and wood, so each one was assigned a task and that's how we crossed off the check list.
Paco is an authentic person, a great “old school” style climber and with a heart so big that it doesn't fit in his chest. He has always been concerned that we don’t lack anything in the house, and at all times he has been interested in sharing the knowledge acquired from him in thousands of experiences throughout his life.
This was my first workaway and I loved it. It has been a unique experience, full of learning and beautiful emotions.
Thank you very much Paco, and many thanks to the town for welcoming us so well. I hope to see you soon again.
