Description
We‘re an international family from Berlin and we moved to Andalusia - we love it here!!
We have found a special house in the countryside of Nerja, which unfortunately was very neglected. Luckily the major part was renovated, and now we need some help in our daily projects, like painting walls, upcycling projects, some maintenance, basic garden work. Let’s watch the phoenix rise from its ashes!! ;)
Who and what is needed?
★ somebody with gardening skills, maintenance, carpenter skills
★ somebody who enjoys to help with cleaning from time to time, since everything is a little too much to handle at once
★ a big plus: somebody who speaks spanish or russian
We are so happy to read from you!!

✨ gardening
✨ painting
✨ cleaning the house
✨ if you are passionate about DIY/ Upcycling... amazing!
My daughter and I have a special healthy diet, also I do not have fixed time for cooking that’s why I prefer that you get your own food and cook for yourself whatever you like. Therefore you work max. 3 hours a day from Monday till Friday and the rest is your free time. As a workawayer, I myself only worked 3 hours a day and bought my own food.
Please come with a flexible attitude and an open mind.

Accommodation
Right now we provide A super comfy Vintage van with your own mini kitchen, stove, little fridge and table.
I have to say during winter the van / camper is much more warmer and has some advantages. You will love it!
What else ...
Nerja is a beautiful town. It offers beautiful beaches, nature… and the colorful patchwork of people is very interesting.
also the places around nerja are beautiful (maro, frigiliana, la herradura, Malaga)… there is always something to do. I’m a member in private Telegramm and WhatsApp groups where I’m always informed by the newest shows, events, markets, flea markets, organic food, projects etc
