Description
My wife Nina and I are looking for help around the house and garden in Andalucia. We are a vegan family. You by no means have to be vegan to stay with us, but you will only receive vegan food from us and we ask that you don’t bring any meat, dairy, fish etc with you.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Babysitting and creative play
Help around the house
House sitting
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The Sierra de Cadiz is a beautiful, peaceful and, if you will allow me, magical area full of tradition and history. The locals love to celebrate and you will often find some sort of Fiesta going on. As for us, we are travellers at heart and have many stories to tell and experiences to share as well as being very open people who enjoy real exchanges with real people.
If you are new to the concept of veganism, we can help you reduce or remove animal products from your plate or wardrobe. We can show you ways to help create a more sustainable world, ways to reuse and recycle materials or generally use less, how to repair things around the house, how to build with wood as well as recycled or natural materials, how to run a (vegan) business, how to overcome challenges, how to be self-employed parents, how to manage stress, how to open up about your feelings and emotions and much more. We are open-minded and always keen to learn from YOU as well.Au Pair Help

Help
We are primarily looking for help around the household and cooking. There is also garden maintenance and I would like to install an irrigation system for our trees. If it feels like a good match, we can also explore the possibility of childcare.
There are always spontaneous things popping up, I may need help with some small building and carpentry projects, or we may just need someone to housesit and take care of the dogs if we are away working for a couple of days, then you have the place to yourself!Languages

I come from Australia and am happy to help you improve your English. I also speak fluent German and decent Spanish. Nina is from Germany and can help you to learn German. She speaks English and Spanish fluently.Accommodation
We can offer a private room with ensuite bathroom. Our preference however would be if you had a camper van or motorhome, and we provide you with everything you need.
What else ...
The mountains offer lots of activities like hiking, biking, paragliding, climbing, watersports, yoga and running. You can meditate in idyllic nature. You can visit the beautiful white villages like Zahara de la Sierra, Olvera, Ronda, Algodonales, Grazalema and Ubrique. Make a trip to Jerez de la Frontera, Seville, Cadiz, Tarifa, Malaga or visit the pristine beaches of Costa de la Luz. From Villamartin you can travel by bus to Ronda, Malaga, Cadiz or Seville, and from there pretty well anywhere.

Clara and me stayed in the finca for almost two months in the summer of 2021. As this has been our very first workaway trip, I think you could say: We started on top of the Olymp. Because our experience with Nina, James and the Finca crew was out of this world! I'm not even kidding or… read more

Ich bin eine der Glücklichen, die 8 Wochen auf der Finca verbringen durfte, Ninas und James' kleinem Paradies, irgendwo im Nirgendwo (so fühlte es sich für mich zumindest an). Gegen Ende wollte ein Teil von mir gar nicht mehr weg und das aus gutem Grund. Ich kann diesen Ort jedem guten Gewissens ans… read more
I felt like an asteroid that go propelled into the right trajectory.
The need for people to start living on a plant based diet is so important or more like crytical in our current times. Both James and Nina, or Nina and James are ambassadors and… read more
Nina, James und Lenny sind einfach weltklasse Menschen. Leider mussten wir nach 3 Wochen wieder weiter nach Portugal ziehen. Der Ort ist magisch und sollte auf keiner Reise fehlen. Wir hatten unsere… read more
