    Description

    Hello everyone! My name is Laurent, I am Franco-Swiss and I moved to Spain 10 years ago. For the past 6 years I have been living 30 minutes from Malaga (Colmenar) in the countryside. Before that I lived in Argentina for 4 years. Before the 2000s I was a photojournalist and I traveled a lot, also to conflict zones, notably in Lebanon. As a pilot I traveled across part of Africa whose missions were to help populations in partnership with humanitarian associations. Now I have settled down and opened a small country cottage. I live with my 3 dogs that I brought back from Argentina. On my almost 2 hectares, there are many olive and almond trees
    The setting is beautiful and the atmosphere is very zen!

    Help

    A responsible person who will be able to help around the property and who will be able to help me with my garden, the swimming pools, taking care of my three dogs (cockers spaniel) and if you wish to take care of the fruit trees and create your own vegetable garden, you are free! The field is 2 hectares.

    The holiday rental part (open from May to October), I take care of it myself but you will have the opportunity to sympathize with the guests who come from all over the world. These are often very rewarding
