Description
I'm living in a house with two dogs and need help with renovation work around the house and garden works. The house has two spare rooms, one I like to keep clear for guests and one for a workaway member. The garden is big and has a pool, but I am currently repairing the pool and it is not useable at the moment.
Types of help and learning opportunities
GardeningHelp around the houseGeneral MaintenanceCultural exchange and learning opportunities
I am German, but spent my teenage years in Spain, then went to London to study, and now have been back in Spain for a few years. Estepona has many international tourists during the summer, but it still has a very local feel. Traditional Spanish villages surround it.
Help
Repair and improvement work around the house and maintenance of the garden and small decorative construction projects in the garden, like stone walls, etc.

You have your own room with a terrace, access to the garden, and a private bathroom with a bath and shower. The room next to you has some gym equipment that you are free to use.
What else ...
The beach is a 20-30 minute walk away and under 5 minutes on the e-scooter which you could borrow at most times. Estepona has a lot of things to do too and many bars and restaurants to hang out. I like going for long walks with my dogs, but the area is not as nice as it used to be, because of a fire last year and now it is recovering. There are other forests though, but one has to drive there.
Marbella is also just a short drive away. For weekend trips Tarifa is also just about a one-hour drive away.A little more information
