    Description

    Hello! We are Francisco (38), Sofia (39), Ayun (9), Miel (7), Kai (8), and Max (11 months), a family living in Campo del Valle, Casablanca. Nine years ago, we participated in Workaway for a year as hosts and we really enjoyed the experience. At that time, we only had one child and we worked our organic garden, selling honey and free-range eggs. Since then, our plans have changed. We now have a restaurant in Casablanca as a family business, we've downsized our large organic garden, and our family has grown considerably! Therefore, we need extra help to bring our garden back to life, and we would also love for you to spend time with the children to practice English, help with homework, and spend time with us.

    Hello! Somos Francisco (38), Sofia (39), Ayun (9), Miel (7), Kai (8) and Max (11 meses), una familia que vive en Campo del Valle de Casablanca. Hace 9 anos participamos durante 1 ano como anfitriones en Workaway y nos gustó mucho la experiencia, en ese entonces solo teníamos un hijo y nos dedicábamos a trabajar un huerto orgánico en producción, vender miel y huevos de gallinas libres. En este tiempo nuestros planes cambiaron, ahora tenemos un restaurante en el pueblo de Casablanca como negocio familiar, achicamos el gran huerto orgánico que teníamos antes y agrandamos la familia considerablemente! Por lo que necesitamos ayuda extra para que nuestro huerto tome vida de nuevo y también nos gustaría que puedan compartir con los niños de la casa para practicar el ingles, ayudar con las tareas del colegio y compartir con nosotros.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    They will learn a lot about permaculture, as it is the foundation of everything we do. For example: 1. How to cultivate and maintain a home garden. 2. They will learn to harvest delicious fruits from the countryside, as there are many fruit trees such as blackberries, apples, figs, pears, grapes, and others depending on the season. 3. We will take walks in the countryside, hikes, or bike rides. 4. If we happen to be there at the same time as the beekeeper, he can show us the honey-making process and how the beehives work. 5. We will plant fruit trees in our garden this season.

    Aprenderán mucho sobre permacultura ya que es la base de todo lo que hacemos, por ejemplo:
    1. Como cultivar y mantener un huerto de casa

    2. Aprenderán a recolectar ricas frutas del campo ya que hay muchos árboles frutales como moras, manzanas, higos, peras, uvas y otros según la temporada.

    3. Haremos paseos por el campo, caminatas o en bicicleta.

    4. Si coincidimos con el apicultor el nos puede mostrar los procesos de la Miel y como funcionan las colmenas.

    5. Plantaremos arboles frutales esta temporada en nuestro jardín.
