    Description

    I would love to share the experience with some adventurous travellers (and sometimes my sister will join too!)

    Myself, Javi, I'm a digital nomad working remotely. I spend half of my time in the area surfing and enjoying the nature in between meeting meetings. The rest of the time i'm doing crafty improvements. I'll show you the impressive nature we have in here!!!

    My sister, Ane, is a social worker and lives nearby with Goa, our labrador. Ane knows where all the good parties are and best spots to enjoy local beers. She's visiting whenever work allows her!

    The house is 5mins drive away from stunning beaches and hikes. You can see the Pyrenees in the background too, so pretty easy to go and explore the mountains too.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    You'll be able to enjoy the 2.5 acres of land, your own caravan, the company of the cat, the nearby nature and the delicious local Spanish food and drinks!

    The region is called Cantabria and offers stunning opportunities to explore nature, enjoy surfing and way more!

    I can take you surfing, exploring nearby waterfalls and hikes. And I'll take care of you during your stay!

  • Help

    Help

    Help us with our land in Galizano, Spain.

    The place is in an idyllic location. Myself I am doing a lot of the tasks and I'd appreciate an extra pair of hands during your stay to get some extra help. In most cases it will be helping with the outdoor landscaping, garden activities and general maintenance.

    We’re looking for people who want to exchange stories, experiences, and skills. We’re happy to share what we know about the area, surf spots, secret beaches, and local culture.

    You’ll have plenty of time to explore, with a minimum 3 hours of help every morning. The rest is yours to soak up everything this beautiful area has to offer.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    You'll have your own fully equipped caravan. This gives our guests the privacy of their own space during their stay.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    While you are visiting, you can explore the nearby beaches and towns within the proximity. And you can borrow my bicycle if you'd like too.

    The house is directly connected by bus with Santander and the nearby towns like Somo or Santoña.

    It's better if guest come with their own car to have full freedom of movement within the area. Otherwise, guest can make the most out of the local bus and the bicycle.
