Help me create a seaside haven here in Cerbere, France

Details

• 

  Description

  I need some help renovating a loft that houses rare birds and is destined to become a live-in atelier type space for associative projects. Visit the beautiful Catalan côte vermeille, in a town called Cerbère, surrounded by the biggest marine reserve on the Golf de Lion. Plenty of walks, swimming and sea activities. Workawayers will also have the opportunity to literally walk into Spain at 3kms away. If you are a fan of trains you'll love it here...........

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I am an artist / designer. I also trained and practiced as a well being therapist (Massage, yoga, Ayerveda); I can exchange on these subjects, but I no longer practice massages. I'm willing to teach couples. I can cook home made food, use of a car for down time

  Help

  I am looking for some hands to help with a loft renovation, filling/ finishing, painting, making shelves, laying floor-tiles......; I have most tools! It would be great if the person has a driving license. (I cannot move large objects or operate drills or rather I shouldn't do, because I have an autoimmune disease and am recognised as a handicapped worker).

  Accommodation

  Own Room in apartment, with use of large lounge & kitchen; 5 mins to the beach... The views are stunning and there is an opportunity to learn about the history of the village, Catalan culture, protected costal activity, diving, fishing etc

• 

  What else ...

  There are stunning hikes in the area and rich culture, as has Collioure, famous for its artists of the past, or Dali’s house on the coastline in Spain. From the creeks and beaches in Port Vendres you can see the snow topped mountains of the Canigou. All well served by transport. It’s a little hidden French secret here, you will not be disappointed.
