    Description

    Hello everyone,

    My wife Tamara and I run a restaurant together in the Pyrenees of Catalonia.
    We prepare pizzas, pasta, salads, and homemade desserts.

    We are located in a rustic, rural, and wonderful area.
    The Aigüestortes National Park is right next to us, offering endless lakes, hiking trails, and mountains to explore.
    If you love hiking, camping, climbing, and other outdoor activities in summer, this is the perfect place for you.
    In winter, you are just 5 minutes away from the nearest ski slope, inviting you to enjoy a different kind of adventure.

    About us:

    On one hand, we love the mountains, solitude, and the activities this place has to offer.
    On the other hand, we are passionate about cooking, creating new dishes, and sharing our creations with others.

    We are looking for motivated people who want to be part of an active lifestyle and are eager to try new things.
    Ideally, you have worked in a kitchen before and don’t mind breaking a sweat.
    If you join us, you’ll enjoy fair compensation, a place to live, great food, and access to all kinds of outdoor activities you can imagine.

    When could you join us?

    Summer: June 20 – August 31
    Winter: December 1 – April 1

    Food and accommodation are included in the offer.
    Depending on the number of participants, you will either have your own accommodation or share it with other workawayers.
    Breakfast will be provided as desired, and the remaining meals will be consumed at the restaurant.
    You will be compensated according to the Spanish minimum wage, approximately 9€/hour.

    Feel free to reach out for more details!

    Best regards from the mountains,
    Tamara and Merlín
