Fuimos por una semana y nos quedamos dos con esta familia encantadora. Ross,Sophie, Livia, Nina. Nos hicieron sentir parte de su familia. Y los llevaremos en nuestro corazón para siempre.
Nos dieron una habitación privada con baño(que es en su estudio, el cual por la mañana liberas y ellos trabajan desde allí). Nos incluyeron todas las comidas y

Nos prestaron su coche para poder ir al pueblo, la playa, o lo q precisamos ...y los días libres hasta pudimos disfrutar de los carnavales en Vilanova y Sitges!(Ya q están bastante alejados del pueblo)
Los trabajos que hicimos fueron de pintura casi todo el exterior de la casa y jardineria. Los últimos días q llovía hicimos pequeños trabajos de albañilería como rellenar bordes de azulejos del piso, arreglar roturas, etc. Ellos siempre se mostraron flexibles y atentos a nuestro bienestar y pudimos conversar sobre las labores, dónde nos sentíamos más cómodos o no. Compartieron con nosotros riquísimas comidas (lograron q Manu coma vegetales y verdes, cosa q nunca je) y tuvimos grandes charlas de cultura, politica e intercambios en general. Jugamos con las niñas, también bailamos todos. Les agradecemos la confianza, generosidad y hospitalidad. Que todo les sea devuelto y multiplicado. Esperamos verlos x Cuba! Ya saben!
Recomendamos a estos anfitriones sin dudas!!!
Un abrazo gigante

We spent five wonderful days with this charming couple and their sweet little girls. They provided us with our own private room and bathroom, and we were treated to amazing home-cooked meals every day.
Our main task was painting the exterior facade, and the working hours were very flexible. We truly enjoyed our time there, especially the fun and

A special highlight was that they generously let us borrow their car for a trip to Sitges, which we really appreciated.
We can absolutely recommend this experience to anyone and would love to come back again in the future. Thank you, Rosario and Sophie, for such a fantastic time.
The best Workaway experience! This was our first Workaway. We stayed with Ros and Sophie for 2 and half weeks to help with the garden and to do some house painting. Ros and Sophie are both relaxed and kind people, and were both very generous to us! They cooked us delicious food, invited us to do activities and even offered to help us learn

We felt welcome, and very much like we were part of the family. They live in a beautiful area with plenty of hiking, beaches and small towns to explore in close proximity (and of course they are also close to Barcelona!).
We are already missing your company, delicious food and great conversation! A massive thank you from us, and see you both again soon I hope!Feedback

We had such a wonderful stay with Ross and Sophie. Whilst our stay was short (one week) to assist in painting their house, we felt so welcomed and immersed in their daily life. They were extremely generous in showing us local areas and providing suggestions for solo outings, despite being busy with work and other household tasks. We were extremely

Very happy to have you over guys. It was the perfect exchange, we all painted part of the roof and spend some time together with some good food. Good luck with your trip and keep in touch!

Well, what can I say, after three years of traveling around the world, I finally decided to settle down in this country and that's when I arrived at this nice family. Rosario and Sophie are the first hosts in Spain and I couldn't imagine it better, they always helped me wherever they could it's really super super nice family. Rosario is very

The house is amazing, its up hill, far away from any crowd. Rosario was so nice and offered me his Vespa to be mobile... I've to say, its a joy to drive with. The tasks are more household tasks or in the garden, which you can do very well, it is never too difficult, everything was doable. Guys, I´ll miss you for sure! Thanks for your support ;-)You can only contact Workawayers who have an active membership.
