  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  You will live in the countryside but really close (10 min car) yo a very typical village of Spain, where you have really nice people, supermarket, cinema, parks... Is a really agriculture region, out of pollution. During the summer you can see the sky full of stars, you will have the oportunity to developed a garden project since the beginning, being the manager of the eco garden. Also you will have the oportunity to learn and improve your Spanish. We have beautiful rivers where we can go also.

  Help

  I would love if you coyld help me with the eco garden, preparing the floor and the land, so it should be perfect if you have some previous knowledge about permaculture and eco gardens. It is not necessary, but I also would love if you speak French, because I really would love to improve that lenguage. Also you could help me with the swimming pool maintenance and cooking every day for lunch and dinner. It will be something very relaxed, because the garden is not very big. On the other hand, I would like to give to the house a creative enviroment, building new things, so it would be perfect if you have some knowledge working with wood and if you are full of new and creative ideas :)
  
  Me gustaría que me pudieses ayudar con la preparación de la tierra, ayudarme a sembrar y organizar el terreno, utilizar técnicas poco agresivas y elegir los mejores cultivos para esta época del año. El trabajo seria fácil ya que el huerto no es muy grande. Me gustaría que fuesen voluntarios con experiencia en el cultivo ecológico y de permacultura. Además seria perfecto que hablasen francés ya que estoy en pleno momento de imersión en la lengua. Yo podría ayudarte con el español. Además las tareas se extendería a ayudar un poco en la cocina, limpiar la piscina y repartir las tareas, algo relajado. También me gustaría, si hay tiempo, darle un poco de vida y creatividad al chalet, inventando nuevos muebles, por lo que sería estupendo si se tienen algunas nociones de carpintería.
