    Description

    We live in a beautiful quiet part of the island where I am developing medicinal and food gardens. (Which is prooving to be very difficult in this drought.

    I am wanting a couple to prep and paint my little house for me.

    Looking for a couple to come on the 14th March (approx) and stay for 2 weeks. Must speak good English and be practical and hard working. Experience in building and/or painting a big plus. :-)
