    // ESPAÑOL DEBAJO //

    Hello!

    We are a community of eight people aged between 25 and 33. We live in a large stone farmhouse 15 minutes from the city of Girona, for more than 2 years.

    Here we take care of the house, the chickens, the garden, the space. We try to have time and availability to give the house the harmony in which we want to live. Still, each of us has a job and we don't spend all day at home. However, we are many, so there's always somebody at home.

    We try to live in a rural and communal way. We share food, we make our own firewood, we grow vegetables, we meet weekly in assembly to share how we are and to make decisions and whenever we can we celebrate life :)

    Hola!

    Somos una comunidad de ocho personas de entre 25 y 35 años. Convivimos en una gran masía de piedra a 15 minutos de la ciudad de Girona desde hace 2 años.

    Aquí cuidamos de la casa, de las gallinas, el huerto, el espacio. Intentamos tener tiempo y disponibilidad para darle a la casa la armonía en la que queremos vivir. Aún así, cada uno de nosotros tiene un trabajo y no pasamos todo el día en casa. Sin embargo, somos muchas, así que siempre hay alguien en casa.

    Intentamos vivir de forma rural y comunitaria. Compartimos la comida, hacemos nuestra propia leña, crecemos hortalizas, nos reunimos semanalmente en asamblea para compartir cómo estamos y para tomar decisiones y siempre que podemos celebramos la vida :)

    Depending on the week and the time that the person wants to stay, there will be jobs of:
    - General maintenance of the space and the community (garden, orchard, chickens, common spaces, cleaning, cooking, making firewood, fetching water from the fountain, go get food at the market, take care of the dogs and cats at home)
    - Specific projects that may arise (carpentry, garden, construction, cultural projects)
    - Art (if the person who comes thinks they can offer it)

    IMPORTANT: They are needed people who want to work independently since we will not be 100% of the time pending.

    Dependiendo de la semana y del tiempo que la persona quiera quedarse, habrán trabajos de:
    - Mantenimiento general del espacio y la comunidad (jardín, huerta, gallinas, espacios comunes, limpieza, cocinar, hacer leña, ir a buscar agua a la fuente, ir a buscar comida al mercado, cuidar de los perros y gatos de casa)
    - Proyectos concretos que pueden ir surgiendo (carpintería, huerta, construcción, proyectos culturales)
    - Arte (si la persona que viene cree que puede ofrecerlo)

    IMPORTANTE: Se necesitan personas con ganas de trabajar de forma autónoma puesto que no estaremos el 100% del tiempo pendientes.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We live in a neighborhood where there is nothing but 4 houses, forest and field. There are no shops, no supermarket, not even containers to throw away the garbage.

    The nearest town is 5 minutes away by car (about 30 minutes walking) and to go to the city of Girona, where there are all the services, it takes about 10-15 minutes by car. If you have a great car, if not, you can also get by on a bicycle.

    We will not make trips especially to take you to Girona, although you can take advantage when someone goes :) we are 8 and every day there is someone who goes to the city.

    Vivimos en un vecindario donde no hay nada más que 4 casas, bosque y campo. No hay tiendas, ni supermercado, ni tan sólo hay containers para tirar la basura.

    El pueblo más cercano está a 5 minutos en coche (unos 30 minutos caminando) y para ir a la ciudad de Girona, donde hay todos los servicios, se tardan unos 10-15 minutos en coche. Si teneis coche genial, si no, en bicicleta también uno se puede apañar.

    No haremos viajes especialmente para llevaros a Girona, aunque podéis aprovechar cuando alguien vaya :) somos 8 y cada día hay alguien que va a la ciudad.
