Description
My husband (Ben) and I (Jazz) have lived in Spain for 3 years we have lots of sweet pets. We are an English couple from London. As well as renovating our home in Vinaros we will shortly be starting our bigger project “The Tahona Eco project”
We’re currently practicing different eco techniques and ideas at our off grid house.
I speak Spanish and English Ben speaks basic Spanish and English. I work away every couple of weeks so we’re looking for support with our renovation and projects ☺️
When I am about I am happy to cook for guests but Ben is more of a craftsmen than a chef.
When I’m not away working (I work on rotation 2 weeks on 2 weeks off) I will provide healthy vegetarian lunches. From the main house kitchen
We will provide breakfast bits coffee, tea, milks, cereals, eggs, bread, fruit, jams spreads oils for guests to prepare themselves in their kitchen.
When I am working we will provide all staples for guests to make vegetarian meals from their kitchen. Veggies and kitchen staples, pastas, rices etc.
We will provide food for guests to make their own dinners.
We will provide a water filter for guests for drinking water but Guests are to bring their own drinks and snacks that they want to consume.

Help
We’re looking for a work away/volunteer/friend or couple to come and stay in our self contained tiny home near Vinaros. (We have had lots of work exchanges before and can provide references ☀️💕) ideally for 3 weeks as that’s easier all around, starting from May.
Firstly We’re doing a bit of security upgrading in MAY and need someone to help watch over the house while we do this. Some help with painting and gardening would be amazing 🥰☀️
In May We will also be building a compost toilet and outside eco shower for the tiny home. As well is setting up a small solar system for it.
We are going to convert our wood shed into a tiny home too at some point, some landscaping as well as putting in a pond to boost biodiversity.
We have olive trees that need pruning and wood work that needs painting.
It’s a peaceful spot where we live surrounded by orange trees in the “orange blossom coast”. There is a restaurant with panoramic sea views 40min walk away. There are lots of fresh water wild swim spots not too far from us also! Plenty of national parks in the surrounding areas also.
We have a pool and a deck with sunset views, miniature goats, pig, 2 amazing dogs, some cats, terrapins, we’re getting some more chickens again shortly and maybe a rescue miniature Donkey.
