    Description

    Hi everyone! We are Rebeca (43) & Juan (45).

    We are an Argentinian-Italian couple, and we've been traveling the world for a couple of years. Now, we've settled in a small town in Spain called Garganta La Olla.

    We've used Workaway several times on both sides, both as hosts and as workers. That's why we've decided to do some exchanges.

    We are looking for a cook for our restaurant.

    🧑‍🍳 Requirements:

    Previous cooking experience.

    Teamwork skills.

    Organization, responsibility, and commitment.

    We have accommodation available for volunteers, either alone or in our apartment, depending on the length of their stay.

    The work is paid according to the collective agreement, so you must have your paperwork in order in Spain to apply for the volunteer position.

    It would be great if you could stay longer than 4 weeks.

    We don't have internet or TV in our apartment.

    Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
