Description
After renting our house, I have found so many things damaged and so dirty that I need help!!!!!!
Now almost everything is back to the way it was :-)
I now need someone who can help with the cleaning and with experience replacing kitchen cupboards (and levelling them using their "feet"), conecting the electric oven/stove to the main electric source and installing the counter top, isolating everything with silicone, etc

NO SMOKERS, please!
We offer a room to sleep + meals
3 hours help / day - no work on weekends
We can take 2 people for 1 week OR 1 person for 2 weeks - to be discussed
Types of help and learning opportunities
DIY and building projects
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I am a teacher of Portuguese - you can learn Portuguese as in a Total Immersion Program
Help
I would like to welcome someone who can fix the new bottom cupboards, install the new electric oven + stove, paint some areas inside the house, help with the garden and cleaning
Languages spoken
English: Fluent
Accommodation
A bedroom with a bunkbed, wardrobe and shelves with many books to read in your free times, sitting on your little sofa
If a family, instead you can stay in a beroom with a couples bed
What else ...
In the neighbourhood you have a horse riding school, tennis lessons, dance lessons, you can just go to one of the cafés to hang out with local youngsters and/or watch football matches, you can go to Guincho Beach by foot/bike, you can go with a house bike to the mountains on the back or to the town center, for more beaches, bars, etc. You have a bowling place you can go by foot, or you just can hang on the garden swing or a sun bed outside to take some sun and rest. Lisbon is less than 30 km away, and Sintra around 10 km, so you can also visit these places

Thanks to Isabel for hosting when another host canceled my accommodation at the last minute.
Her house is in a very good location, close to the beach and much more.
