Description
Updated June 26.
I'm an American now living in Cabanes, Spain. I have a very special property near the coast, about an hour North of Valencia requiring two different sets of skills:
All-around handyman who can assist with small building projects including:
1. Finishing a water fountain and small pool
2.Putting in a concrete floor for a pool to be used to raise fish
3. Building a circular foundation for a yurt using concrete blocks
4. Install a shower/sauna in 4 meter high wine barrel
A garden person to plant a large vegetable garden, an herb garden, and a cactus garden
The property is in a beautiful setting overlooking the coast. Wonderful, sandy, beaches are 15 minutes away. The village of Cabanes is 10 minutes away and Castellon is 30 minutes away. Can provide a vehicle for short trips.
For accommodation you will have your own private yurt with a compost toilet, solar powered electricity, small kitchen, and internet. If you have a camper van that works also.
Any length of time is ok. In addition to housing in a yurt, willing to pay for some of the construction work, enough for your food and expenses.
Please non-smokers without dogs.Types of help and learning opportunities
