    Description

    Hello! We are Borja and Sara and our three kids (9, 2 and a baby) who live in a lovely house in Mallorca. We are both from the farming world: Borja is a consultant in organic farming and Sara is a veterinarian, who happily dumped everything for the family and to pursue a plentiful life. Despite the work and the very busy family life, we try not to forget that we love art: Borja is a musician and Sara paints.
    We own a beautiful house near a natural park, which is also very close to a village. We love that we can find peace in our place, but we are not far from the city of Manacor, where we can find everything we need, and there is also public transport to anywhere you'd like.
    It's been two years since we live in Mallorca (we are from Ibiza and Barcelona) and we're still getting to know this beautiful island. We have beautiful beaches close to our house and nice walks and views around the house.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    In Mallorca, you can enjoy sea and mountains as much as you like.
    Our life is simple right now, we are two weirdos/ travellers/unconventional people who got together and made a family and try to give our children the best. If you are easy going, like simple stuff and don't like to follow the herd, you'll feel good with us. It may be a nice place to go for adventurers who need some rest.

    With us, you can learn about organic agriculture, and we can share knowledge about cooking.

    The house is beautiful, and the garden is quiet with many birds, and you'll have a whole apartment for yourself, so it may be a good place to write a book, study o do some sort of personal project.

    Help

    As we said, we are a family of 5, so we mainly need help to get though the day because we do not have family close to us. This would involve anything related to housekeeping or kidskeeping like picking children from school, prepare dinner, clean the kitchen or just be around having an eye on the boys. The kind of help could be agreed depending on the person and its interests or skills.

    Apart from help, we love sharing a good meal in good company. We are very focused on eating from scratch, and we love to share this experience and learn from others. It will be a pleasure to bake pizza in our wooden oven, prepare a lamb on the barbecue or make sauerkraut together as we talk about anything and everything.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We have a full apartment for you, with independent kitchen and bathroom.
    In fact, we are happy to accommodate cupules or two friends.

    As for the eating and food organization, we can coordinate that how it suits best for you. You'll have your own kitchen so you can make your own meals there, or we will be happy to eat together too. Notice that we have children and some timings are very scheduled due to school and other activities.
    We need to highlight that we are NOT vegetarian and, as we can adapt some of the food, we cannot change all the meals. We very much appreciate respect for our way of eating, and please don't bring processed food to share with the kids.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    We can lend you a bicycle to move around

    Oh! We have some rules regarding phones and other device's use: we try not to use much our phone-computer- whatever when we are around the kids unless it's a very important call. And we don't like to walk around the house with the devices on our pockets all the time. So we'll ask you not to use the phone around the kids, and also we'll feel much better with someone who is not constantly checking at their device (silent mode most of the time, aeroplane mode at night, etc.).
