  Description

  Hey there! We are a small family of three looking for self sufficiency and happiness in this crazy world... so we created a small space on a majestical (lol) mountain in Spain. We are building our own house, growing trees (mostly fruit), have six hens and a rooster and a couple of rabbits. We are looking for a single person or couple willing to stay for a while and help us out with chores and projects and if it goes well stay a while. There is way too much space and opportunity to live here just ourselves (28 hectares). We speak mostly English , but also can communicate in French and Spanish. Thank you so much.
  Projects:
  -Aircrete dome is half way built
  -tree care
  -garden?!
  -pool
  -chores, maintenance
  -animal stuff basic chickens
  -teaching us Spanish?

  Help

  We are looking for someone who can take a task and go with it. There is so many different types of things to do here: aircrete dome building, painting, gardening, walkways, moving stuff, tree care. We go slow so sometimes there is big things to be done but we live a full life and pace it out. No worries about being overloaded.

  Accommodation

  Camper van 5 meters long with 2 king beds possible, table and couches that can also be turned into the other king bed. There is also an outdoor shower and kitchen that is shared but it is down at our place. You have to poo outside and make your own thing cause you have your own space and it is very far from our toilette ;) there is a kitchen space/living room built off the camper and it has a sink and refrigerator available.

  What else ...

  We stay here mostly but the beach is about an hour out of the mountain. Girona is our closest city and is very beautiful. We are; Singer mom 42, Trudon Son 8, Daughter 14. If you wanted to travel down for food, a drink or shopping np on hitching a ride! Our place is difficult to access. You need a 4x4. So for those traveling without a car or normal car we would pick you up at the church and drive you up. The walk is 20min back down to the church if you ever wanted to leave on your own. A taxi will come to the church.
