    Hello :D

    We currently need help during Easter and summer!

    The help mainly involves looking after our 6-year-old son, especially on weekends when I'm very busy at the bar! We'll also be involved in creative play, including when there are other children in town, and we need to be prepared for conflict resolution, as we're working hard on his tantrums!

    When Taiel isn't around, we can help with maintenance tasks, painting chairs, shelling hazelnuts, and picking apples. We can also help with shopping, as we usually travel quite a bit!
    We'll provide all the food you need, and we expect you to usually prepare your own meals, except on weekends when I'll also cook for Taiel!
    In the apartment, you'll have your own room. The living room has a double sofa bed where I usually have a nap with Taiel, so we'll share the kitchen and bathroom!

    If you're proactive about what tasks might be needed and enjoy listening to the neighbors' stories, come join us! :D

    We can discuss the tasks you'd be most comfortable with! Oh, and the village is very small and sparsely populated, so a couple is ideal for better organization and to fully enjoy the experience!

    Let's talk, and we hope to see you there!

    Buenas :D

    Ahora mismo necesitamos ayuda en semana Santa y verano!

    La ayuda es principalmente cuidar al peque de 6 años especialmente los fines de semana cuando estoy muy ocupada en el bar!! Juegos creativos incluyendo cuando hay otros niños en el pueblo y estar preparados para la resolución de conflictos, ya que estamos trabajando fuertemente con sus rabietas!
    Cuando Taiel no está ayuda con tareas de mantenimiento, pintar sillas, pelar avellanas recoger manzanas. Ayuda con las compras, normalmente nos desplazamos bastante!
    Os suministramos toda la comida que considereis y esperamos normalmente os preparais a vosotros mismos, excepto los fines de semana que tambien le preparo a Taiel!!
    En el apartamento tendreis vuestra propia habitacion, el salon tiene un sofa cama doble donde me suelo hacer una 🕐 🕐 quedar con Taiel, así que compartimos la cocina y el baño!

    Si tienes iniciativa para ver que tareas pueden hacer falta y puedes disfrutar de escuchar las historias de los vecinos, ventee :D

    Podemos hablar de las tareas con las que os sentís mas agusto! Ah, el pueblo es muy pequeño y casi no tiene gente asi que una pareja es ideal para poder organizaros mejor y disfrutar de la experiencia!

    Hablamos y os esperamos!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    A different way of living!! Isolated and inmerse in the mountains with difficult access. Learn as we do about growing our own crops and reconnecting with nature. You will find some peace and quiet if you wish or come to the village where we run a little bar and get the real rural Asturias and North of Spain! If we have spare time we can visit secret Asturian places :) Tell us, what would you like to get in exchange?

    What else ...

    We live in an isolated spot, activities such as caving, rock (and tree) climbing, trekking are possible in these wild mountainous surroundings.

    We speak both English and Spanish so if you'd like to practice a foreign language we can help you.

    We are 20 minutes drive from town and we usually go down few times a week.
