    Description

    I live in a small house powered by solar energy, just 40 km away from the city of Valencia. Together with my housemates, Maria and Alberto.
    Currently we need help with fixing the roof, we had some leaking after the heavy rains this spring.
    Another project is a construction of a small building in the house. We appreciate of you are experienced with construction work
    Other daily jobs might include chopping wood, cleaning spaces around the house, moving some earth, etc. so in the future we can do more of what we love: yoga, meditation, tantra and massages!

    In the area: Chulilla - European hotspot for climbers.
    River for swimming and lots of hiking roots.
    Valencia city just 40 km away with lots of tourists attractions.
    Historical city and castle of Sagunto just 30 km away.

    Old town Lliria - our village and the monastery with amazing views.
    Ancient lake of Albufera and the rice fields about 50km away - great for boat rides and beautiful sunsets.

    The coasts offers surf schools in the season (autumn - winter mostly). Ant so much more...

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Right now we can offer a tent in the garden
    As soon as we finish the construction in the garden, it will be an independent room for the volunteer.
    We normally share at least one meal a day - lunch or dinner. Basic food will be provided - breakfast things, bread, vegetables, eggs, etc.

    We do not eat meat and normally we do not welcome meat in the house. If you have some special nutricional requirements, you will need to find these for yourself. We are happy for you too cook your special meal.,

    When there is very little work like 1-2 hours a day, we ask the volunteer to have their own lunch/ dinner. This is because we are sometimes not home, and cannot provide.
