A call for the new 2026 comming workaway season...in the search of open souls and joyous spirits from January to June 2026 :)
This might be the last (or the one before the last ;)) Workaway season before Alex (now 11) and Gael (turning 10 November 2025) become teenagers and are more interested in hanging out with their friends than with their dad! So, we want to make the most of the time we have left, creating the same wonderful experiences we've shared over the last five years. We’re incredibly thankful for the generosity, openness, and joy that those who have come with us have brought into our home. Even, its quite possible that whenever English/French for my children is not possible I will do it myself to learn another language :)
This coming season, we’ll continue living our outdoor lifestyle (hiking, sea, basketball, bikes, skateboards, climbing...) while nurturing our creative spirits (painting, writing, and banging on the bongos...) – and we remain open to discovering new things. If you're open, joyful, and independent, this is the place for you! Read the description below and drop us a line if you feel inspired...
Hi there,
We are a family living close to Alicante in a town called Santa Pola. We are Quino, Alex (11) and Gael (almost 10 :D). We are currently looking for a language and intercultural exchange in English preferentially or French (or both).
In brief, we are quite creative, active, outdoors and nature keen family so we tend to always be busy doing related things (bike tours, painting, hiking, skating, weird exhibitions wondering, paddle surfing or swimming) but also staying at home watching a good film (normally always OV - even in Japanese :s! as we still found no good add on to our media center) or playing at some games in our retropie emulator.
Me (Quino) I run several ventures at a time including a consultancy business on human rights related topics and a eco-ethnic social tourism initiative with destinations and activities in the region (not that much lately but I would love to relaunch it a bit). I am not currently looking for help in these areas but if you are interested and I got a project in the pipeline it may be possible to look at it.

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
We offer a stay with a Spanish family in a wonderful area on the top of a mountain with views 2 min away to the Mediterranean sea and a wild beach down the hill.
For those with the interest and if the chance comes I can show you as well some insights into the human rights consultancy business and/or the tourism initiative.
Projekte mit Kindern
Dieses Projekt schließt möglicherweise den Umgang mit Kindern ein. Mehr Informationen findest du in unseren Verhaltensregeln und Tipps hier.
Arbeit
I currently would like someone to help the kids immerse in English (1st) or French (2nd) language and culture from a playful approach ...I am interested only in very self-reliant people taking care of themselves and also helping out with daily chores (similar to a flat mate arrangement). If you are interested in improving your Spanish that can happen when the kids are not around (50% of the time). There are also Spanish classes available in the public library at a very reasonable price.
In addition and if you are good with QGIS, Photosop-illustrator, statistics, or machine learning I would love to sit down and exchange, learn and share...and even maybe collaborate in some projects if there is the chance (day rate included in that case).
We are also very keen on DIY projects and have always something to do around including paintings, raspberry pi, furniture design, etc., so we would very welcome creative souls around.
I would never ask for more than 20 hours a week on the kiddos related tasks so you will have plenty of time to discover the region as well.
I am specially interested in the cultural exchange so on top of receiving someone with the skills and willing to work one of the main aims is to have someone active, open, curious and autonomous.

Catalan: Gute KenntnisseDieser Gastgeber bietet Sprachaustausch an
I am interested in Alex and Gael getting used to hear other languages (prefereably English, French second option, are our priorities). You would speak with them in your language while playing with an active approach based on repetition and correction in both a structured (homework, reading, etc.) and unstructured approach. Also, it is possible that I have some DIY projects when you come (creative alike - painting tiles, or construction alike: painting fences, setting up a wood stove, etc.). You will be invited to join should you are keen in this type of things.
Unterkunft
Your will have your own independent room. You will use as well your own toilette (shower is common though) and we will all share the kitchen, the garden the dinning room, etc.
Was noch ...
We can spare one bike to discover the place on your own (there are plenty of routes nearby including our mountain, wetlands, beaches, etc.).We have also just bought a second paddle surf so we might as well paddle together (it's very easy and fun). Be aware nearest cities are Alicante and Elche both reachable only by bus or car (but public transportation is not that good though). We live quite close to Alicante international airport.

It was my first time doing workaway with Quino, Alex and Gael and I couldn't have had a better host. Alex and Gael are fun, energetic and super lovable.
