    Description

    English born lady who bought a house in the Spanish mountains which has now been mostly renovated. Living as eco friendly as possible, Inland Alicante region. Large Veg garden and chickens.

    The comfortable home is detached in a very peaceful location. Sitting on its own plot of land. 4km from local town which has bars and shops and a public swimming pool.

    Workaways will have their own bedroom Shared bathroom.

    The property is located on the edge of a national park which is great for hiking and exploring.

    Don't come expecting an all you can eat and drink hotel experience because it's not. I provide the means for 3 meals per day, and as many meals as possible taken together to encourage cultural exchange.

    If you come as a couple or two friends please note that the expected hours are per person..

    Help

    Help with gardening, help around the home and helping me pack and sort my home up ready for moving in October.

    Gardening help includes preparation of vegetable patches, planting, weeding, Must be able to safely use garden tools..

    Helping to clean the pool..


    Helping with cooking and cleaning up after meals and daily cleaning around the house as you would at home is not included in your daily hours. These will be shared by whomever is present.



    If you are planning to come during June July and August you need to be prepared to be ready to help by 7 am in the morning so that most of your tasks can be carried out during the cooler hours of the day..it's no good arriving and announcing that you aren't a morning person as it's not possible to work outside effectively in the afternoons during the Spanish Summer

    Thank you for reading
