    Description

    My name is Rosa, I am 59 years old, I am an English teacher in secondary school and I have a fruit farm with a vacation rental house in Tijarafe, the island of La Palma, Canary Islands. I have a lot of work on this farm and little time. I would appreciate collaboration by someone accustomed to gardening and permaculture help or similar who likes ecology and healthy living. My farm has beautiful views of the sea and is a very quiet place. I offer vacation home vegetarian food and salary for transportation around the island. It is important to refrain from smoking.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    It is essential to have a driver's license because the area is a bit far from the main road: 30 minutes to go up and 15 to walk down. My rental house is very popular because of the views and how quiet and cozy it is.

    Es esencial tener carnet de conducir porque la zona esta un poco lejos de la carretera principal: 30 minutos para subir y 15 bajar caminando. Mi casa de alquiler gusta mucho por las vistas y lo tranquila y acogedora.
