    Workaway Note : Please contact this host in Spanish

    Hello. I am a person who lives alone in a cabin in the country, in Madrid in the Alcarria, with two donkeys, two puppies, chickens and bee hives. I also recently fixed another cabin 100 meters from the one I live in, and it seems to me a waste that it is empty, this would be the one that you would use. I also have a vegetable garden and a small swimming pool. My philosophy of life is based on degrowth and sustainability, returning to nature and moving away from capitalist consumption.


    Hola. Soy una persona que vivo sola en una cabaña en el campo, en Madrid en la alcarria, con dos burros, dos perritos, gallinas y colmenas de abejas. También arregle hace poco otra cabaña a 100 metros de la que yo habito, y me parece un desperdicio que este vacía, seria esta la que vosotros utilizaríais. Tengo también un huerto y una pequeña piscina. Mi filosofia de vida esta basada en el decrecimiento y la sostenibilidad, volver a la naturaleza y alejarnos del consumo capitalista. Por lo tanto el lugar es para personas que estén preparadas a vivir con poco.

    Help

    You can help in the garden, feed the donkeys, clean the stable, general maintenance, chop firewood, paint the cabin, cook if you know how, walk the dogs when I'm not here... I'd be grateful . We will hold periodic assemblies to see the mutual needs and reach agreements so that everyone is happy. We'll see what happens to us.

    Puedes ayudar en el huerto, dar de comer a los burros, limpiar la cuadra, mantenimiento general, cortar leña, dar una mano de pintura en la cabaña, cocinar si sabes, pasear a los perros cuando yo no este...te estaría agradecido.
    Haremos asambleas periodicas para ver las necesidades mutuas y llegar a acuerdos para que todo el mundo este contento.
    Ya veremos, lo que se nos ocurra.
