  Description

  Dear Workawayer,
  
  we are a german family living in northern Spain's Galicia.
  The small village we are living in is located in a very green area next to the so called Coast of Death (Costa da Morte). The landscape is amazingly wild and beautifully schaped. If you like nature and are interested in surfing or hiking it's a great choice during the not so rainy summer period!
  The weather can be a bit wild too, just like the ocean. During the winter period it is often windy and rainy (it could be compared to Ireland).
  
  We offer private sleeping opportunities and organic food of the season (mostly vegetarian meals) in exchange for some help with the housekeeping, gardening or even easy carpentering work. Furthermore we can offer loads of interesting books you can read during your stay or if you like to try the waves, we could offer our family surfboard (it's a bit old and we barely use it any more...).
  
  For further information don't hesitate and just write a mail and we will answer as soon as possible !! Have a beautiful day and we hope to see you soon :)

  During the summer period we usually rent two nice stone houses to people from all around the world so we could need help with cleaning or gardening... We own a big garden next to the river.
  You could also help us with carpentering jobs, if you like to help with that you are also very welcome!
