Description
I live in a slightly unusual small village in the heart of Mallorca with three dogs, Dorothy Rosemary and Brenda, and numerous cats! There are two horses, Chocolate Socks (Chocky) and Spirit.
I live in an eccentric sort of house. I need help with painting and shelf putting up etc. The small piece of land behind my house otherwise termed a garden is a disaster zone and so some help with this would also be great. I work for private boats doing upholstery and canvas work, and sometimes some help with measuring up is good! In the summer I take care of a boat, some help would occasionally be helpful.
My dogs love playing and going for walks. I need help with keeping the finca where the horses live clean and tidy.
I live close to the centre of the village. A small bedroom (with a double bed) is available for a single person or couple, the village has two bars, two village shops and an occasional bus service connecting with trains to Palma! Village life is slightly addictive, though...
The day starts around 8.30 as animals like their breakfast...!
A driving licence is very important, but for a driver over the age of thirty. Internet is wi fi and can be used from the bedroom.
I look forward to hearing from anyone who thinks the above will suit them.
