    Description

    I’m Tina, and I live in an old farmhouse in the countryside of Catalonia, surrounded by nature and animals.

    I’m currently simplifying and reorganising my life here, and I’m looking for a calm, responsible and independent person who enjoys rural life and simple living.

    I’m particularly looking for someone who enjoys cooking and would like to stay for several months (3-6). There are also occasional practical and maintenance tasks around the farmhouse.

    This is a peaceful, rustic place for someone who values nature, privacy and a slower way of life.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Living here offers the opportunity to experience everyday life in rural Catalonia, away from the usual tourist experience.

    Workawayers can discover local traditions, Mediterranean food and cooking, rural life and the practical side of maintaining an old farmhouse.

    They can also enjoy nature, animals and the surrounding countryside while sharing everyday life with a local person and learning about a different way of living.

  • Help

    Help

    The main help I’m looking for is some support with meals: preparing simple Mediterranean-style food, keeping to a low-fat diet, and helping with the shopping needed for the meals

    I may also occasionally need help with small practical and maintenance tasks around the farmhouse, such as moving things, sanding or repairing furniture, painting or helping with small improvements.

    The tasks are generally simple and do not require special skills. What matters most is being practical, responsible and willing to help when needed.

    The help is part of everyday life in the farmhouse and will be adapted to the needs of the moment.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    The farmhouse is a traditional rural house in Catalonia, located in a quiet natural area surrounded by forest and fields.

    For long-term stays, the Workawayer has their own private area on the ground floor, including a bedroom with a double bed, a living area and a kitchen. The bathroom is outside, just a few steps from the accommodation.

    The accommodation is rustic and simple rather than luxurious. It is suitable for someone who enjoys privacy, independence, nature and a peaceful rural lifestyle.

    The farmhouse is a short drive from nearby villages and is best suited to someone who is comfortable living in a rural area and having their own transport.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    The farmhouse is a peaceful rural home surrounded by forest, fields and nature. It is a simple and rustic place, ideal for someone who enjoys quiet surroundings and a slower way of life.

    The Workawayer has their own private area, so there is plenty of privacy and independence.

    In their free time, they can enjoy walks in the surrounding countryside, relax in nature or explore nearby villages and towns. In summer, there is also a simple outdoor pool for cooling off and relaxing.

    There are dogs, cats and chickens around the farmhouse, so animals are naturally part of everyday life here.

    Nearby places include:

    - Navàs: about 5 km away
    - Manresa: easily reachable by bus
    - Barcelona: about 1.5–2 hours by public transport
    - Mountains and the sea: around 1 hour by car

    The area is suitable for hiking, cycling and other quiet outdoor activities.

    This is a good place for someone who enjoys nature, privacy and a simple rural lifestyle.
