    At the moment i am not looking for help.

    Hi! my name is Richard and I live with my daughter and my beagle Bimba at the Costa Brava (Costa Maresme) in Santa Susanna, which is next to Malgrat. It is a comfortable 4-bedroom house, with a large terrace and a swimming pool. You will have your own room . The house is situated in an urban area, Malgrat, which is next door, is a non-touristic and lively village. My daughter, Jules is 12 and she goes to school here.

    I work as a property manager, so I take care of other people’s properties.
    Besides the property management (mostly called holiday rentals) The problem is I have nit enough time to give Bimba the attention she needs or take care of the house, and to cook now and then which is the main reason i am looking for help in the house.

    Before I came here, I travelled with an old camper van in Scandinavia and Europe and have been on some house-sitting jobs and Workaway and other volunteer jobs myself.
    The tourist industry is growing again and there is a need for taking care "the Dutch way" of properties.

    Who am I? Non-smoker, I enjoy life! open minded, organized (sometimes!), calm, always trying to help other people and I enjoy meeting new people, making friends and connections.
    I like to talk about the world, with good company, enjoying cooking.

    The work; main task; taking care of Bimba, she needs to be walked and taken care of, keeping the house organized and helping now and then with the apartments and houses. (Check in/out, cleaning and so on)

    What’s to do in Santa Susanna & Malgrat ? You can hike and bike, mountains and lots of nature just around the corner.
    Go to the beach, surf, kiting, sailing, swimming, diving, running, the beach is enormous.
    There is a well-equipped gym with an indoor and an outdoor swimming pool (own expenses) in Santa Susanna, there is a cross fit in Pineda, padel, water sport, horse riding, lot's of possibilities.

    Lots of cultural locations to visit. Barcelona is 1 hour and 10 minutes by train (5 € to get there and 5 € to get back), beautiful train ride direct at the coast.

    Here in Spain we work 5 days per week, in principal we (try to) relax in the weekend.
    If you are studying or have an interest in the tourist industry in Spain then this is a good experience for you.
    Any experience with (internet) marketing, or other related experience is welcome. If you are experienced with building a basic website with a website builder aplication, then please let me know. ( i use a Dutch system, jouwweb, but i am hopeless with it, achieving nothing) plus, most important, organize Facebook marketing, i specifcly want to target a small área here; Costa Maresme, for property management.

    I speak Dutch, English, basic German and Spanish. If you speak Spanish it is a big plus.

    You will have your own room, I have a car, a scooter and a bike which we can share. The beach is 25 minutes walking. Nice bars all around. Malgrat & Santa Susanna are real Spanish not so touristic villages with a rich cultural life all year.

    Interested? questions? ideas? suggestions? please ask!


    Best regards,

    Richard, Jules, Bimba

    Notes:

    Apparantly a lot op people do not know how to read a profile; so for those who don´t; I can accomodate one person, pay attention to ¨one¨ which means; no couples or families!

    I prefer non smokers. And I prefer that you are not too young (read; you have to be at least 30) and that you have some life experience. Also, it is important you have a valid drivers license.

    Everything we do has to be planned "around" the daily program of Jules, my daughter. She is the most important "job" in the house and I do most of them. But it will be necessary in the nearby future that I devote more time to work.
