Description
Hola! We're currently looking for help with decorating and setting up our new home in Bunyola, right in the heart of Mallorca.
It's a traditional property and requires some TLC, but is in a great spot and has lovely views.
We are ideally looking for a couple (partners/friends/siblings) who are available from the beginning of June for around 6 weeks, and have some experience/expertise with painting and decorating.
We will be hiring professionals for the electrics, heating etc, but are looking for someone (or a couple) who can help with cleaning, painting, simple repairs, moving, shopping, building furniture and hopefully if we have time some gardening!
It's hard to know how long everything will take, but we have one month from getting the keys to moving in, so the idea is to get as much as we can done during that time.
If things go quickly and smoothly then there are some more creative/aesthetic jobs that would be great to get done, but the main task is to have a clean, organised, working home to move into!
We currently live in Port Sóller, and will also require help packing up and doing a final clean here too.
The house in Bunyola is 7 minutes walk from the village and transport links, with nature and walking just steps from the house.
The property has a small casita, separate from the main house, with kitchen/bathroom etc, so the first job will be to set this up as your base for your time with us.
We're looking for someone from the beginning of June until mid July.Types of help and learning opportunities

We are located in a World Heritage site, in the Tramuntana Mountains, an area of outstanding natural beauty and historical interest. Ideal for walkers, artists and those who enjoy fresh air and good energy.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
Your main tasks will be to help clean, decorate and set up the house. This will generally be Mon-Fri mornings, but that is flexible. There is a possibility that there may be some babysitting involved, so an interest and experience with children would be great.
As we'll be living separately, we will provide an allowance for food, but would be open to sharing some meals if you'd like that.
The main thing we're looking for is good energy and a positive, can do attitude :-)Languages
