Description
Hi. My name is Caroline, Belgian, 54 years old.
Me and my dog (Teckel) recently moved to a big house in Atougia da Baleia, Peniche. Capital of the wave. Surf, surf and more surf..
The house came with a lot of furniture. Decent quality, but very brown..
I want to restyle my house and could use some help.
That means cleaning, sanding, primer, paint.
Because I have a bad shoulder and back, it's too much for me to do this all by myself.
You will stay in a nice room with your own bathroom.
Minimum stay is 2 weeks, prefer longer.

What else ...
There are numerous beaches around. The closest one is around 4km. As far as I know there is no public transport, but there is Uber and Bolt. In Atougia there are 2 minimarkets and one bigger grocery store. Big supermarkets, you find in Peniche.
If you don't have your own transport, I can try to buy a second hand bicycle.

Not only are they great workers, they also became my friends/family.
They are really multi-functional, they SEE the work and think along with me.
I wished they could have stayed longer, but they are nomads and need to move to discover.

She knows to adapt to environment, situations and me 😉
A hard worker, reliable, honest, creative, etc. It was a pleasure to host Margon. She does 'SEE' work, never had to tell her what to do. Also, she can do a lot, a real 'allrounder' from gardening, painting, DIY to artwork.
Hope to see her again, someday.
