    Description

    Hi!! welcome to Sant Pere de Ribes, a small town at the south of Barcelona Province. 5km far from Sitges and its beautiful beaches.

    I live with my 16yo son in a small house with mediterranean forest sorroundings, but alone now at home, because my son is having his first work experience in Costa Brava, north Catalonia.
    The area is Really calm environment and also 3km far from the city center. I can lend you a bike. From town there is a bus to get other towns around or the big city/airport too, such as Sitges or Vilanova i la Geltrú and of course, Barcelona.

    What I need in this moment is some help with the garden (improve the compost place), prepare plants and garden for next autumn, move the wood to a covered area, maintenance at home and garden basically, help with cooking,, who could help me with some solutions/decisions and new ideas to get a better place.
    I can host one volunteer every time.

    List of needs (not in order of priority, will see):
    Move wood to one unique place (maybe cut some pieces)
    Prepare garden for autumn plants
    Doing a dryer place for figs/fruits
    light painting inside
    little tasks inside the home
    Clear the garden
    Prune some trees


    Love meeting new people, I love traveling and know this is a great way to do, living experiences in other countries, other cultures and even other people particular way of live.
    Learning languages, teaching spanish, any tasks is good for me, gardening vegetables..
    Practicing movement culture (I practice capoeira, animal flow&movnat), I love open water swimming during the whole year, I practice and teach breathing techniques, massages, and many other things, please just come and share.

    But my main goal is sharing my home with someone else, routines, meeting new people... and sharing someone else's trip, while I cant do it bc of work.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Having the experience of living a natural lifestyle, very near of one the most famous beaches and villages in Spain, SItges. I go swimming during the whole year with an international and local group, as Sitges is international itself. Learning Spanish and our culture including our valuable "tortilla de patata" cooking. Which is different for everyone.

    Accommodation

    I offer a bedroom in my house, need 15h work/day as it is too hot here in July/August. And basis food (oil, butter, salt, sugar, rice, pasta, bread, potatoes, onions, water...) and hope we can share main food and cooking as roommates.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    At the town you can find bus stop to go to Barcelona (1h) and Sitges (5 minutes). Train station you can find just in Sitges. Having a car can be useful here, but not essential, the town is 30 min walking far from here, there you can find bus to Sitges, Vilanova I la Geltrú, airport and Barcelona. Train Station in Sitges and Vilanova. A bike is a good option, maybe also I could help with this. I can drive you to the town also, no problem.
