Hi everyone, my name is Anna and I am 60 years old. I am Italian but I have been living for several years in Denmark and during the past 10 years I have been living on la Palma also called "La isla bonita".
I recently moved to a "finca", a rustic property, where I am currently creating my off- grid little home and it is a place that I would like to share with other people that are interested in the same lifestyle as mine.
I live in a small wooden house and I also have a caravan and a van where I host friends, family and from now on I want to receive volunteers as well. I have a friendly dog that also lives on the property.
The property is 2500 m2, there are several fruit trees which I planted recently, 5 big pine trees and a stunning view of the surrounding mountains.
OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION
I am expecting volunteers to help around 3/4 hours pr day, 4/5 days a week and in return I offer accommodation and a meal (Vegetarian).
➡️During the winter month is temperature can be quite cold since we are at around 800 m from the sea level. Keep that in mind if you want to come during the winter. ⬅️
Keep also in mind that the nearest bus stop is 1 km away from the property, while the nearest town is "El Paso", which is 3 km away.
It's important that you are not a smoker

Help
I would like help with several small projects and depending on your skills you can help me which project you is best ::
-I need someone who knows how to camper the van, not for traveling but to create an extra "room". someone who has already done it or who has very clear ideas/skills*
-It would be great if you have experience with building/creating with pallets! One of my plans is also to create an outdoor space for cooking.
-If you are more of an arty person and you have good ideas on how I could make my place more colourful then you could be a perfect fit!
-Do you enjoy the reward of hard work? You can have fun moving a few rocks for me, there are plenty of them in my property....hard work could also include to cut wood that I will be using during the winter months.
- ***Help in the garden***
-Another task would be available when I am not in on la Palma. The task would be to take care of my dog and watering the plants around the property. I will write in my profile when I am planning to travel so volunteers can sign up for house/dog sitting while I am away.

Accommodation
At the moment I can host 1 person that can sleep in the caravan where there is a 2m x 1,40m bed (or to beds 1,80x70 ) and a small kitchen with cold water. The bathroom with shower is a few meters outside the caravan and you will be sharing it with me. The shower have hot and cold water.
What else ...
La Palma is a popular destination for people who enjoy trekking/hiking and there are many hikes that you can do in your time off in the surrounding area. In 2021 there was a big eruption on la Palma that went all the way to the ocean and today you can walk where the lava passed by. If you prefer the beach, there is a beautiful beach in Tazacorte where you also can go whale watching.Or Los Cancajos near the island' capital
