    Description

    Hi!

    We're Graciela and Enric, a couple from Alicante, Spain. We're renovating a country house and need some help!

    We're looking for people to come with their campervans, as we can't offer accommodation at home right now. We have a space to park the van near the house, where there's a shower and kitchen available.

    Our house is about 2 km from Sella (the nearest town).

    Work hours are between 4 and 5 hours a day, 25 hours a week (flexible). We provide meals, usually vegetarian.

    We live with three adorable dogs: Durga, Lua, and Kaki. If you're traveling with animals, please let us know beforehand :).

    We'd like to start with a one-week stay to get to know each other and see if we get along. After this week, we can see if everyone is comfortable and decide what to do next. Communication is key, :).

    We're always happy to host people and enjoy new experiences!

    We speak some English, French, and Portuguese, and we love learning more and more. We enjoy learning languages ​​and teaching Spanish and Catalan.

    We try every day to deconstruct patriarchal society, starting with ourselves, so please don't contact us if you're not interested.

    This is a very exciting project for us, and we would love to share it with people from all over the world to create our dream home, start a family project, and create a welcoming space for workshops, meetings, concerts, and more.
