  Description

  Imagine waking up to the sound of birds, breathing in the fresh country air, and enjoying panoramic views of the Pyrenees and Montseny.
  In our 18th-century Masia, fully restored and full of charm, tranquility and nature are our constant companions. We are located 3 km from Llagostera, between the Costa Brava and Girona, surrounded by forests and with views of the mountains.
  We are Laia (43), Jaume (48), Martí and Joan (11).
  Our lifestyle is based on tranquility, contact with nature, physical activity, music, reading, food that we try to grow and prepare with love, and the good company of family and friends. We are in love with the place we live and our land.
  Laia works from home part-time in the field of human resources and is dedicated to managing rural tourism. I love to dance, walk in nature, read, live music, good company, serenity, cooking and the sea.
  Jaume works for the administration in the rural and environmental field. He likes to practice physical activity in the natural environment: running, walking, cycling, reading, peace, good food and traveling.
  Martí likes to play music and guitar, nature, animals, play at home outdoors and football and do physical activity, the sea, reading and his friends.
  Joan loves to talk, learn new things, be told anecdotes and stories, read, play the saxophone, listen to the radio, be with friends and play at home outdoors and football.
  Martí and Joan share many moments, are very connected and love each other madly. The twin relationship is certainly very special. They love being at home and enjoying outdoor activities and games throughout the rural and natural environment where they live, with the thousand opportunities it has offered them since they were very young.
  We are looking for one or two native English speakers who want to share our family and rural life, helping Joan and Martí (11 years old) to improve their English through games, activities and conversations. In addition, we need support in our rural tourism activity, helping to prepare breakfasts, rooms or the garden for our guests.
  We value a cheerful, active, communicative person (or couple) with initiative and a genuine love for children and their needs. Our boys are lovely, and we are sure you will have a great time with them if you have these qualities. Since you will be spending time with our twins, we need someone who is responsible.
  In addition to the time you spend with the twins, you will also contribute to some light household chores, such as cleaning, washing dishes and clothes, and cooking, like any member of our family.
  We offer an enriching experience where you can:
  Immerse yourself in the beauty of the countryside and Catalan culture. Experience authentic Mediterranean living. Enjoy and learn to make delicious homemade meals. Explore the Costa Brava and the Girona region. Become part of our warm and welcoming family. Learn organic farming and gardening. Learn and participate in the management of a rural tourism business.
  If you want to live an unforgettable experience at our Masia, do not hesitate to contact us. We are looking forward to meeting you!

  Accommodation

  For the months of May, June, September, and October, we offer a unique accommodation option: a cozy caravan located in our garden. This option is ideal for one or two people looking for privacy, independence, and a deeper connection with nature and the surroundings. The caravan will allow you to enjoy the tranquility of our garden and live a more immersive experience in rural life.
  During the months of July and August, to ensure maximum comfort in the heat, we will accommodate you in a room in the main house.
