Description
We are a senior couple who recently made our home in Spain. Located in a beautiful small village with a backdrop of mountains.
The historic Orihuela City is only 4 klms from the village.
An excellent train & bus service is available from the city, with Alicante a 30 min train journey.
Ideally looking for a single person (male or female) willing and able to help us with small projects around this large property, you will be helping us on home maintenance etc. My wife and I having been workawayers, have a good understanding of others undertaking this journey.
Together we spent 3 years in central America on different assignments.
