    Description

    Come and disconnect in our little paradise. While the world spins, we are on a small piece of land with an old house that we have made our home. We take care of an orchard, fruit trees, ourselves and our little boy 3 years.
    We also have a cat and a very calm dog who has helped several people overcome their fear of dogs.
    We are humble people who like to learn and not fanatics, and we look for the same in our guests.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We offer a place with a lot of peace and a simple life in the countryside.
    Through work, we can introduce you to a trade (carpentry, restoration, mechanics) and through our daily lives we can show you our recipes, including preserves and a wood-fired oven, and how we grow with our son who (at the moment) does not go to school. We know the world of the circus and we can initiate you or improve you in juggling, verticals and stretching. Or maybe you feel like trying drums, we will surely find the hobby you like :)

  • Help

    Help

    UPDATE: during this summer we are only looking for people with experience and minimally autonomous, preferably in one of the following areas: gardening, carpentry, insulation / maintenance of motorhomes, tiling, electricity, downloading computer programs.

    We have a small plot with a building. We want to build a little paradise in it, so there is always a lot of work and a lot of variety. You have to take care of the orchard and fruit trees, firewood, build a chicken coop, restore a motorhome, set up new spaces and much more, including some computer and art work. We would also like to be able to do the work ourselves, so domestic help is appreciated. Let us know what you like to do and chances are we'll find something for you.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We are a small family, for this reason we only welcome one guest. The accommodation is a motorhome of 7.5 meters with a large bed, living room and kitchen.
    You can use the bathroom in the house.
    We work a maximum of 5 hours in the morning, although if it is too hot we will have to adapt. At lunch you will eat with us (if you feel like it 🐱). Breakfast and dinner normally in the motorhome, although the cooked food is obviously provided by us.
    We are supplied by solar panels and water is sometimes limited. We have a hot tub, refrigerator, washer, dryer, and various luxuries, but at night or if it's cloudy we don't have enough light.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    The place is between Huesca and Zaragoza, we can pick you up in both cities, which in turn are well connected to Barcelona and Madrid. If you come by car or van, access is very good. We will lend you a bike so you can do your excursions if you wish, 6 km away there is a reservoir where you can bathe/kayak in summer and walk in winter and 6 km in another direction there is a village with all services.
    We live in a quiet, beautiful, and lively place but with very few people, so we are looking for people capable of enjoying nature and entertaining themselves.
    Vegetarians and non-vegetarians welcome. No smoking inside.
