Description
We are a family of four living in rural Andalucia, Spain, with two dogs and one cat. The girls are 5 and 3 years old, mummy is a part-time single mum as daddy works abroad and travels a lot. The house is old and the land has not been done much with by the previous owners hence we have lots of plans and little time. We are new to WorkAway and want to find out what kind of people we could connect with through this platform.

It will be a bit of a joint venture as we ourselves are not experienced builders or landscapers but with help of the internet and having fun doing new things it should be a rewarding and creative experience for all.

We have a spare room in the house but the plan would be to build the first teepee or yurt or something else cool for the guests to stay in so both the family and the guests can have their privacy...

We live half an hour by car north of Malaga in the mountains, walking distance to a small village and 10 minutes aways from two larger villages, there is a bus connection to Malaga, Beautiful area on the border between the Malaga Mountains and El Torcal national park (Unesco World Heritage).
