Help
We are looking for a couple or two friends a male and female, preferably a painter or general handyman as i would like to paint our villa over the autum and someone to help my wife around the house with cleaning, cooking and general day to day running of the house.
we have two cars so you can have the use of a car when needed and we will provide full insurance as long as you have a full valid driving licence.
Last year we added a large balcony and extra bedroom to our property and there are small jobs that still require finishing from painting, tiling woodwork, gardening and general handyman jobs. we run our own holiday rental business so work from home most of the time, my wife takes care of most of the our rental business so i would be working daily with the painter or handyman on out DIY projects.
