¡Hola!
Thanks for checking my profile. I'm looking for help with driving, cooking, gardening, some painting/restoration of doors and windows at my home and campsite (it's just for me - not a commercial venture).
I hope to plant out a succulent, low-water garden at the camp.
You will stay in your own, lovely little cottage/house (´casita') with a roof terrace looking out to the Grazalema Park. It's very comfortable!
There will be driving involved so you need to be aged 25 + (so that you're covered my car insurance) and a competent driver.
You'll also need to be happy to do some dog-sitting/walking when I'm out and about.
At breakfast we do our own thing then meet to discuss the day over coffee.
We work until around 14h when we stop for lunch. After that you're free to do your own thing.
Weekends are all for you.
I see Workaway as a cultural exchange and enjoy good company and conversation.
Over the past years I've welcomed workawayers from all over the world.
I enjoy sharing what I know about the language, culture and history of Spain. And I'll be interested to learn about yours. I've travelled and accompanied groups to many different corners of the planet and am a committed One Worlder and European.
You'll be close to great walking trails in the Grazalema park. I have authored several books about the area, most of them focused on hiking trails.
And Montecorto is a small, quiet and special mountain village.
Thanks for checking out the profile.

Platz zum Abstellen von Camper Vans
There's a nice place to park your van in the forest close to where I live. If you stayed in your van you'd still have the use of a house for showering, washing clothes, cooking and so on.

Veronica is an exceptionally kind, caring, trustworthy and responsible young person, who left my home clean and tidy and cared for my dog as if it was her own.
I can only say a very big 'gracias' ...

They were such a huge help - cooking, painting, working in the garden and up at our campsite - but, more importantly, they were simply great company.
We laughed a lot, shared some evenings playing crazy card games and exchanged stories… read more
Everything that you did to help out was done with so much care and together you transformed La Cueva, the darkest bedroom, into a lighter and happier space.
Your cooking was amazing - especially the gorditos! - and I loved learning more about Mexico, a place which is… read more
Your caring and sharing nature is inspirational and I wish you an amazing onward journey, wherever the road may lead.
thanks so much for bringing some Italian sunshine into our Andalusian lives. And - por supuesto - for all of your help.
Hasta pronto!
Guy is very friendly and after finishing work he's been an amazing guide: showing me Ronda and the beautiful countryside nearby.
I also met incredible friends of Guy and we had many interesting conversations.
KInd, interesting, hard-working, and easy ... I couldn't have hoped to find more perfect workawayers.
So thanks to you both, happy travels, and please come back as house guests… read more

Thank You again for having us there! This is a warm and welcoming place that feels like home in no time :) It's a pleaser to chat with Guy, because he is a talkative person and has many good stories to tell about Andalucia and other places. We enjoyed the lovely late spanish dinners and the excellent wine.
We can not thank You… read more
the only bad part was saying goodbye.
Her cooking was amazing, and she created a beautiful rock garden as well as helping to redecorate our guest house.
Good luck with everything dear Lil - and please come back some day!
