  UPDATE NOVEMBER:
  Hii ;) needing some help with plants and garden before the winter cold!
  
  I'll be needing help with household chores because I will have a lot of work to prepare all for the Christmass markets during end november and december, on the other hand I am doing a training course and I have some catching up to do. It could be great to speak ptactice english too :)
  
  Hello!
  
  I'm Emma, a Galician/Mexican girl (40y.o.) I live with my son Natan (13 years old), and our little dog Rubi (2 years 1/2) at a cozy apartment in the pretty village of Les Junies, near (by car) from services and a lot of heritage interesting points. The apartment is bright and overlooks our little garden, the pretty little park of the village, and the Castle of Les Junies (look at photos!)
  
  All around, trees, forest, nature, and some pretty ancient stone houses!!
  
  We love to meet new people. talk, laugh! sing!!
  
  I love music, singing, and playing guitar (a little). We often go to jam with friends.
  
  I love cooking when I have free time... (some Mexican-Galician food, and mostly, "Emma's inventions"! ).
  
  I'm beginning a little own business (I'll produce and sell some chili and spices products at markets and festivals). I give online Spanish lessons too.
  
  Natan is at home in "homeschooling". For 1 year he's at an online school. He live half the time with his father.
  
  Now, we have a pretty little garden in front of the apartment (it is an ancient house divided into 2 apartments). We do that garden in respect of nature and life, so no chemicals, and we try not to disturb the soil and the plants.
  
  We have internet access, but I prioritize ethernet connection. If we need to use wifi, I would be happy to turn it off when not in use, and accommodate times during the day to check messages, or other tasks you need.
  
  We try to live in an eco-friendly and economical way, so we are attentive to reducing gas, water, and power consumption. So we will appreciate it very much if you help us with that :=)
  
  We and the earth will be grateful if you use eco-friendly and biodegradable products, like shampooing, soaps, sanitary napkins, etc.
  
  I think you will love to be here, the department of the Lot, has a rich natural and cultural heritage, and there are a lot of things to do and to discover! it will be a pleasure for us to advise you about some places, transport, and if we can, maybe go with you to visit or bring you to some places :)
  
  Come here!! We will be happy to meet you!! ;)
  
  Gracias!! :)

  Arbeit

  Depending on the moment of the year, I'll be asking you to help me with some of these tasks:
  
  - Help with housework:
  I would like to spend more "quality time" with Natan, that's why I'm looking for help especially with housework, as I will be able to take advantage of those moments to be with him without stress :). I need time to work in my little busyness too.
  
  Cleaning, tidying the house, cooking, and some interesting projects like reorganizing the space: toys, books, furniture, etc. to make this space more pleasant! all ideas are welcome! :)
  
  - Help with DIY:
  If you are handy and know how to work with wood, I have some projects like shelves and other ideas to make at home and garden.
  
  - Playing/teaching music:
  I sing and I have also a guitar and I'd love to improve my playing... :)
  If you have musical talents we would love to learn with you! I would like to learn the piano as well..
  Music is in my veins!! yeahhh!
  
  - Speaking English with us.
  
  - Help with the garden

  Unterkunft

  Bed and 3 meals (not the snack between meals) :)
  
  As the apartment has only 2 rooms, we can propose you to sleep on the sofa in the living room (it is very comfortable and big for one person, but if you do not sleep well there, we can talk about it and find solutions), we also have mattresses to put on the floor, sometimes I propose my room (for example if I host a couple of Workawayers) and sleep on the sofa... everything is possible :)
  
  On the days off, we will share the normal house tasks as roommates (if one cooks, the other cleans, cleans toilets, sweeps, etc. to keep the house tidy).
  
  Please make sure that these conditions are ok for you, as well as rules about our eco-friendly and economical way of living because is really important for us. Thank you! :)
