  • Description

    Description

    We're a family of four (British/Swedish) who have settled in Valencia. We have a daughter aged 11 and a boy aged 10 who are at school/sports most of the time. We've also got a 4 year old dog, Toby. We have a lovely home close to the centre of Valencia - it takes 12 mins on the metro line 10 to arrive in Russafa. We have a guest house (3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, large kitchen, living, dining, etc) on our property for workawayers to stay in.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Valencia is an amazing city and you would have plenty of time to enjoy it! You'll have plenty of space to yourself seeing as you'd have your own house and plenty of opportunity to explore as we only need help for 3 hours a day on weekdays. This workaway is best suited for independent travellers who are happy to help in our house for a few hours a day and then spend the rest of the time exploring or working on their own projects.

    We're a really busy family and are looking for people who can help us run the household. Please don't apply unless you are a great fit for at least one of the following:
    1 - a handy(wo)man who can help with general maintenance, painting and small jobs in the house and garden, running errands (has drivers' license) and dog care.
    2 - household help: helping to prepare meals, laundry, cleaning, as well as child care from time to time.
    3 - Vinted/ebay pro - currently in the process of decluttering our home and need someone to assist with taking photos of items, uploading pics, and researching price of everything, writing descriptions, being there for pick ups if in person and taking packages to post office for deliveries.
