Details
Description
House in Spain is 400 meters from the sea.
Situated 1 hr. from Barcelona and 1/2 hr. Girona.
Lloret de Mar is a popular meeting place for young people.
We normally need just a helping hand in the garden and house, somebody with some skills in carpentry or basic electricity will be warmly welcomed. Volunteers must be absolute animal lovers (there are a few furry friends here), because dog walking and cat feeding is part of the daily tasks.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
DIY and building projects
Animal Care
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
In Spain : many good beaches. The bigger ones are Lloret main beach and just south of that, Fenals beach. But many other beaches offer you a great day out as well: Canyelles beach, Sta Christina beach, Sta Boadella beach (with the half of space officially assigned to nudists) and many more small ones.
The town is actually known as the party town of the Costa Brava, mainly because of the amount of bars and lively night life in the summer.
Transport to Barcelona and Girona is easy as there are plenty of buses going daily back and forth from Lloret.
