Description
Hi, I'm Kiko, a Mallorcan born and raised Catalan Teacher, living in the countryside with my 10
year old son Roc.
We live in a small finca near Selva, in the heart of the island, with our dogs, geese, sheep, cats and chickens.
We're looking for an individual or couple to help with general maintenance and some upgrades of our home and gardens.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
DIY and building projects
Animal Care
Creating/ Cooking family meals
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We live in a super peaceful setting, surrounded by nature, but walking distance to a small village and good sized town, as well as the rest of Mallorca to explore!
I'm a passionate cook, and enjoy creating a mixture of international and traditional Mallorcan dishes. I'd be delighted to help anyone looking to learn or improve their Catalan, and play a wide variety of instruments so would be happy to share that too.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
We're aiming to improve our house to make homeexchanges, and host workawayers and friends! So any skills or experience with building/stonework/woodwork would be an advantage. Theres always improvements to do:sauna, jacuzzi...
Other tasks involve general cleaning and decluttering of the home and grounds, gardening and helping out with the animals.
Languages spoken
Catalan: Fluent
English: Fluent
Spanish: Fluent
French: Intermediate
Accommodation
The pool house is ready and available, and we have also a large attic room, with double bed, desk, private terrace, and shared bathroom.
The pool house has its own kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and terrace.
We will provide food for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and are happy to share cooking responsibilities.
What else ...
We're ideally looking for someone relaxed, easygoing and with a positive attitude, who is happy to share some meals/trips and also have time for themselves.
The nearest village or town are about 30 mins away walking, but we also have bikes for you to use if you'd like. From Inca, there is regular transport to the capital of Palma, and from there its easy to get all around the island.
We're flexible about hours - someone tasks will have to be done together and fit around my working hours, but other tasks can be done independently at a time to suit you, so you can enjoy your time here the most.
Its important that whoever we share our space with feels happy and has a great experience.
