Description
Hi! I'm Guim, I am 34 and I just moved to this house in a small forest neighborhood surrounded by the Garraf natural park. This is close to Sant Pere de Ribes, Sitges, Vilanova i la Geltru and Olivella all of them beautiful towns and 10 minutes car to the beach. There are also nice hikes and climbing walls around. The house has a nice terrace and a vegetable garden.
I try to have a sustainable and healthy life. I run on solar power and I try to avoid unnecessary chemicals and plastic stuff.

Accommodation
Double room with window in a 3-roomhouse. Shared toilet and kitchen. We can share some of the meals or use the kitchen to cook your own. A main room to stay in during the winter and many outside areas where you can chill.
Two meals included. Consisting in a traditional breakfast with coffee/tea and lunch or dinner. Kitchen is available all day if you want to cook your own food.
What else ...
There is no TV and no wifi. I can share my connection if I am at home.
The house is separated from town, I can pick you up at the train station when you arrive and take you when you leave.
It would be ideal if you have your own vehicle as it would be easier for you to enjoy around. Otherwise you can walk or hitch-hike to town and then take public transportation.
