What's this?
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

I speak English as a first language and I speak Spanish at a good level.
I have a range of skills to share (and maybe learn some too from the work away visitors) I can offer language exchange/practice. General DIY, gardening etc. I am also keen on cooking vegetarian meals from the garden produce. I like to spend time conserving food as well. I am also expanding the rain water collection systems and also building irrigation solutions for the vegetable garden.
I grow a lot of fruit and vegetables, eat eggs from the chickens and olive oil from my own trees.
Help

I am looking for help with seasonal projects such as tending to the fruit trees as well as regular daily jobs such as caring for the chickens and the vegetable garden.

It was lovely meeting Chezy. He worked hard, he cooked great food and he taught me how to play some new card games! I found him easy company and he looked after the farm for 3 nights as I had to visit family in Norway at short notice. He took care of the animals, the vegetable garden and we worked together with some neighbours to harvest olives. … read more

I spent two weeks at Tom's lovely farm house. The communication with Tom was very open respectful and sincere. I felt very comfortable as Tom trusted me with cooking, taking care of his pets and chickens. We harvested olives together with his friends, which was easy to learn, hard to do and very fulfilling.

We had a brilliant time staying with Tom! He is very friendly and flexible, and his knowledge of the local area meant he could give us some fantastic recommendations for places to visit and events to go to.

The first week went well with Lucien. He worked hard and I found it very pleasant. At the start of the second week he stated that "he didn't want to do jobs in the sunshine". This presented a problem as 99% of the jobs we have on the farm are outside. I don't think that Lucien had really given any thought to what it might be like to carry out … read more
