  • Description

    Description

    We are a family consisting of a couple who work in education and our 7-year-old son, a very sociable and curious boy who loves speaking English and meeting people from different countries and cultures. We live in an old Mallorcan farmhouse located in a quiet area of ​​southern Mallorca, surrounded by nature, country lanes, and the unhurried pace of rural life. We would like to open our home to a native English speaker who would like to spend the winter with us, share part of our daily life, and enjoy an authentic experience in Mallorca, beyond the typical tourist experience.

    More than simply offering accommodation, we seek to create a human and enriching experience for everyone. As we work in education, we deeply believe in learning through shared experiences, languages, and contact with different ways of life. We would like the person who lives with us to be part of a peaceful and natural environment where we can share everyday moments: conversations in English, casual meals, walks, or outdoor activities, always respecting personal space and individual independence. Ideally, we are looking for someone who enjoys a calm life, the countryside, and a simple, active lifestyle during the winter months.

    Somos una familia formada por una pareja dedicada al mundo de la educación y nuestro hijo de 7 años, un niño muy sociable y curioso al que le encanta hablar en inglés y conocer personas de diferentes países y culturas. Vivimos en una antigua casa de campo mallorquina situada en una zona tranquila del sur de Mallorca, rodeada de naturaleza, caminos rurales y el ritmo pausado de la vida en el campo.
    Queremos abrir nuestro hogar a una persona nativa en inglés que quiera venir a pasar el invierno con nosotros, compartir parte de la vida cotidiana y disfrutar de una experiencia auténtica en Mallorca, más allá del turismo habitual.

    Más que ofrecer simplemente un alojamiento, buscamos crear una experiencia humana y enriquecedora para todos. Como trabajamos en educación, creemos profundamente en el aprendizaje a través de la convivencia, los idiomas y el contacto con diferentes formas de vida.
    Nos gustaría que la persona que viva con nosotros forme parte de un entorno tranquilo y natural donde compartir momentos cotidianos: conversaciones en inglés, comidas ocasionales, paseos o actividades al aire libre, siempre respetando también los espacios personales y la independencia de cada uno.
    Idealmente buscamos a alguien que disfrute de la vida calmada, del campo y de un estilo de vida sencillo y activo durante los meses de invierno.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    As part of the Workaway exchange, we offer accommodation and three meals a day in exchange for up to 25 hours of help per week, with two full days off per week. We strive for a warm, comfortable, and flexible experience. We share many meals as a family, especially dinners and some lunches, as we believe these are ideal times to chat, practice languages, and enjoy the cultural exchange naturally. When schedules or routines prevent us from sharing a meal, we will always provide food, ingredients, and enough space for the person to cook independently. We want everyone who comes to feel comfortable and at home. Our diet is usually simple, healthy, and Mediterranean, based on local products and home-cooked meals. We also try to accommodate dietary preferences or specific needs if discussed beforehand. A relaxed and family-like atmosphere is important to us, where living and chores are balanced, and everyone has enough free time to enjoy Mallorca, relax, or work on their own projects during their stay.

    Como parte del intercambio Workaway, ofrecemos alojamiento y 3 comidas al día a cambio de un máximo de 25 horas semanales de ayuda, siempre con 2 días libres completos por semana.
    Nos gusta que la experiencia sea cercana, cómoda y flexible. Compartimos muchas de las comidas en familia, especialmente cenas y algunos almuerzos, ya que creemos que son momentos ideales para conversar, practicar idiomas y disfrutar del intercambio cultural de forma natural.
    Cuando por horarios o rutinas no sea posible compartir alguna comida, proporcionaremos siempre alimentos, ingredientes y espacio suficiente para que la persona pueda cocinar de forma independiente. Queremos que quien venga se sienta cómodo/a y como en casa.
    Nuestra alimentación suele ser sencilla, saludable y mediterránea, basada en productos locales y comidas caseras. También intentamos adaptarnos, dentro de lo posible, a preferencias alimentarias o necesidades específicas si se comentan previamente.
    Para nosotros es importante que exista un ambiente relajado y familiar, donde tanto la convivencia como las tareas estén equilibradas y cada persona tenga también tiempo libre suficiente para disfrutar de Mallorca, descansar o desarrollar sus propios proyectos durante la estancia.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    The guest will have exclusive access to the ground floor of the house, a separate, comfortable, and welcoming space designed for privacy and tranquility. The house retains its traditional Mallorcan character, with the charm of old country houses, but is adapted for comfortable year-round living. We take pride in our attention to detail and strive to create a relaxed, respectful, and family-friendly atmosphere. We highly value easy coexistence, communication, and cultural exchange.

    We usually organize meals in a flexible and natural way:

    • We often share some family meals, especially dinners or weekend lunches.
    • Basic ingredients will always be available at home.
    • The host will also have space to prepare their own meals if they prefer.

    • We like to cook simple, healthy, and Mediterranean-style meals.
    • We try to accommodate dietary preferences or special diets as much as possible if discussed in advance. For us, meals are also a lovely time to chat, share experiences, and practice languages ​​spontaneously and in a relaxed atmosphere. We live a quiet, family-oriented life, so we are looking for someone independent, respectful, and eager to integrate naturally into our daily routine without pressure or formalities.


    La persona que venga tendrá acceso exclusivo a la planta baja de la casa, un espacio independiente, cómodo y acogedor pensado para disfrutar de privacidad y tranquilidad. La casa conserva el carácter tradicional mallorquín, con el encanto de las construcciones antiguas de campo, pero adaptada para vivir cómodamente durante todo el año.
    Nos gusta cuidar los detalles y crear un ambiente familiar, relajado y respetuoso. Valoramos mucho la convivencia sencilla, la comunicación y el intercambio cultural.

    Normalmente organizamos las comidas de manera flexible y natural:
    • Solemos compartir algunas comidas familiares, especialmente cenas o comidas de fin de semana
    • Siempre habrá productos básicos disponibles en casa
    • La persona tendrá espacio para organizar también sus propias comidas si lo prefiere
    • Nos gusta cocinar de forma sencilla, saludable y mediterránea
    • Intentamos adaptarnos dentro de lo posible a preferencias alimentarias o dietas especiales si se hablan con antelación
    Para nosotros, las comidas también son un momento bonito para conversar, compartir experiencias y practicar idiomas de manera espontánea y relajada.
    Vivimos de forma tranquila y familiar, así que buscamos a alguien independiente, respetuoso y con ganas de integrarse de manera natural en nuestra rutina diaria sin presión ni formalidades.

The level of assistance will be reasonable and compatible with the person having enough free time to explore the island, rest, study online or enjoy their stay in Mallorca.
