    Description

    Hello, I'm Cristina, from Jimena de la Frontera (Cádiz).
    I offer my home and meals in exchange for help with household chores and daily tasks.

    I love animals: I have chickens, rabbits, a cat, and a dog. I'm also a mother to two wonderful girls. I live alone with them, so any help around the house would be greatly appreciated.

    My house is surrounded by nature and is a peaceful place, ideal for those who enjoy animals, simple living, and the countryside. In return for your help, I offer a welcoming atmosphere, positive energy, and a family-like environment.

    It would be a pleasure to have you!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Jimena is a beautiful place, and anyone who comes to help us at home will enjoy an authentic cultural exchange in Jimena de la Frontera. We live in the old town, just 5 minutes from the center and 15 minutes from the castle, a fortification with Phoenician, Roman, and Arab history that offers stunning views of the valley.

    A 15-minute walk away is La Asomadilla, a natural park ideal for nature lovers. We also often go on outings to the countryside, and since I have a caravan and love to travel, we sometimes take trips within and outside of Cádiz.

    The town is artistic, peaceful, and very authentic. At home, the girls are creative, love stories and nature, and we live with Jimenato (our dog) and Zafra (our cat).

    Those who come to be part of the family will be able to practice the language, share culture, enjoy the natural surroundings, and have a close, simple, and very human experience.

    Jimena es un lugar precioso y quien venga a ayudarnos en casa podrá disfrutar de un intercambio cultural auténtico en Jimena de la Frontera. Vivimos en el casco antiguo, a solo 5 minutos del centro y 15 minutos del castillo, una fortificación con historia fenicia, romana y árabe que ofrece vistas preciosas del valle.

    A 15 minutos andando está La Asomadilla, un parque natural ideal para quienes aman la naturaleza. También solemos hacer salidas al campo y, como tengo caravana y me encanta viajar, a veces hacemos escapadas dentro y fuera de Cádiz.

    El pueblo es artístico, tranquilo y muy auténtico. En casa, las niñas son creativas, amantes de las historias y de la naturaleza, y convivimos con Jimenato (nuestro perro) y Zafra (nuestra gata).

    Quienes vengan a ser parte de la familia podrán practicar el idioma, compartir cultura, disfrutar del entorno natural y vivir una experiencia cercana, sencilla y muy humana.
