Description
Hello! My name is Nicolás, I am an archaeologist and I have a small personal project, rehabilitating an old house in an empty province of Spain, in Soria, in the town of Valdegeña. I take care of doing all the work, without the help of experts but with some of my friends. I rely on my knowledge (I occasionally work as a bricklayer) and try to learn more on a daily basis. In addition to the house, I am putting into operation an old orchard from which I can supply myself.
Hola! Me llamo Nicolás, soy arqueólogo y tengo un pequeño proyecto personal, rehabilitar una antigua casa en una provincia de la España vaciada, en Soria, en el pueblo de Valdegeña. Me encargo de hacer todo el trabajo, sin ayuda de expertos pero con algunos de mis amigos. Me apoyo en mis conocimientos ( trabajo ocasionalmente de albañil) y trato de aprender más en el día a dia. Además de la casa estoy poniendo en funcionamiento una antigua huerta de la que poder abastecerme.
