    --CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR HELP FROM 12th-24th JUNE aprox.--
    Please read the entire profile before contacting me.

    Hello! I am Christina, 36 years old and I live together with my cats and turtle in a small village in the Catalan Pyrenees. I am a calm person, I like to go hiking, I enjoy reading, working in the garden, playing board games (I have many!! :),...

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    You can learn how to maintain a garden (although I am no expert either- it's more learning by doing :)) And I know a thing or two about wild edible plants and foraging.

    Help

    At the moment I am looking for somebody to stay for minimum two weeks (12th-24th of june more or less). I will be away for some days during this time and need a reliable person to take care of the cats and the turtle.

    Your most important task will be to take care of the cats (feed them, play with them) and turtle (feed, change water twice a week). At the moment I am also fostering kittens and their mom, which means a little bit of extra help and lots of playing and cuddling :)

    I also expect you to help a little bit around the house: wash your dishes, clean up after yourself and maybe do some hoovering while I am away. If you want to cook a meal or two, that?s always welcome, but not a must.

    Help will not be hard, hours are flexible, and you will have plenty of time to explore and relax!
    Since I do not ask a lot in terms of working hours (one hour a day aprox), I would expect you to cater for yourself on days when I am not at home, but you are more than welcome to join for meals when I am there!!
    I am looking for a reliable, responsible and independent person. I prefer people who have managed their own household. (I just don't want to have to remind you to clean up after yourself or find that you left your room in a mess. It's happened :) It is important to me that you take good care of the place while I am away, that you show initiative and are not just looking for a cheap place to stay. If you like animals and nature and are looking for peace and tranquility, this is your place! :)

    Accommodation

    You will sleep in an idividual room with a single bed (or double, if there are two of you) and a desk. It has an outside window. Living room, kitchen and bathroom are shared. Behind the house there is a garden that we share with the neighbors.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    I will not be at home for a couple of days during your stay, which leaves you without transport for these days, if you don't have your own car. But I will gladly take you grocery shopping beforehand, so that you'll have everything you need. There is a restaurant in the village.
    There is also a very basic grocery shop set up in the neighbouring village (there is a beautiful hiking route that takes you there in an hour and a half)

    This place is ideal for a person who seeks tranquility above all, and who enjoys being outdoors. There are no bars open in the village at night and the next supermarket is a 20 minutes drive away. It is a very calm environment. I will be happy to make recommendations for places to visit, as you will have plenty of free time.
