    Depending on the season and current projects, the scope of tasks varies. In winter avocado harvest and shipping to friends is an activity. Often things need to be fixed, but also processing harvested fruits or removing weeds are other tasks.From time to time you are allowed to entertain my lovely daughter Yuna - that's the most pleasant part.

    Je nach Jahreszeit und aktuellen Projekten variiert der Aufgabenbereich. Z.B. im Winter ist Avocadoernte und Verschickung an Freunde eine Tätigkeit. Oft müssen Sachen repariert werden, aber auch die Verarbeitung geernteter Früchte oder Unkraut entfernen sind weitere Aufgaben. Ab und zu darf man auch meine Tochter Yuna bespaßen - das ist der angenehmste Teil.

    What else ...

    My Cortijo is located 6 km away from Motril ( 60T inhabitants). The nearest beach is 3 km away as the crow flies. Without your own vehicle, however, it is not quite easy. The cultural city of Granada is 70km away - reachable by bus. There are many beautiful beaches nearby. Sierra Nevada ( up to more than 3000m altitude) and the Alpujarras invite you for hiking, climbing, skiing.

    Mein Cortijo liegt 6 km entfernt von Motril ( 60T Einwohner). Der nächste Strand ist Luftlinie 3 km entfernt. Ohne eigenes Fahrzeug ist es allerdings nicht ganz einfach. Die Kulturstadt Granada ist 70km entfernt - mit dem Bus zu erreichen. Es gibt viele schöne Strände in der Nähe. Sierra Nevada ( bis über 3000m Höhe) und die Alpujarras laden zum Wandern, Klettern, Skifahren ein.
