Description
Dear you!
I'm a single mother with two daughters (8 and 10). We live in the south side of the Sueve mountain facing the stunning scenery of the Picos. We live in the forest with our horses, dogs, chicken, ducks, geese and rabbits.
I unschool my kids and our daily activities is a mix of farm chores, building projects and finding time to discover the world.
I do work as a medical herbalist, massage therapist and a yoga teacher, and during the summer I usually have an increased workload.
I'm asking for a hand with the kids and help with the animals. I can offer a humble room in my cabin, healthy food, bonfires, walks with the horses and lovely cuddles from our 2 friendly dogs.

We have a stunning pristine nature surrounding the farm. If you like hiking in the mountains this is the place to be. In certain places of our land you can observe a unique fauna; otters, badgers, boars, pine martins, roe deer....in the night, owls and toads sing their soulful songs.

Help
It is essential that you have experience with animals, from chicken to horses. Although an enthusiasm and a positive attitude towards them is great, they sometimes behave unpredictably and you need to be prepared to show strength and determination in certain situations. Help is definitely needed to improve animal shelters.
Apart from the animals, there are some building that needs doing. Also gardening if you have green fingers.

We live very rural, with 6 km to the nearest town. The Picos mountains are close and so are the coast with its stunning beaches. Oviedo and Gijon are an hour away, which can be reached by bus or train.
