Description
Hi 😁 we are a sustainable young couple, and we want to join minds on this project of our passion for the environment.
We got this old farm to create an example of a sustainable house and lifestyle. We want to create a surf, permaculture paradise. We have been working on different stages of the project, the permaculture part is at the beginning stage so we need strong workers to help landscaping! Also, we look for people who know about construction as we are building veggie beds, a BBQ and a clay oven.
Surf is our passion, so bring your energy (and if you have a wetsuit and board)! There is a beach 15 minutes by bike away from us - 50 minutes walking and in between with a skate! If we go surfing you can of course join us in the car:)
We also have our startup and therefore need to dedicate some hours to it a day. The startup is a web3 tech application to incentivise people to pick up plastic from marine ecosystems! So if you are skilled in working with blockchain and AI for positive social and environmental impact, let us know!
In the summer we are planning to create surf-farm camps, and for this, we will need motivated people that like to learn new people and help us to organise everything in the camps. We specifically are looking for people with one or some of the following skills:
- Knows a lot about permaculture
- Loves cooking for bigger groups
- Already worked on camps before
We are very easygoing people, and do not like things scheduled - flowing is the way to go.
We are located in Asturias, a small region named Natural Paradise in the North of Spain where King Pelayo started the Reconquer of Spain against musulmans 1300 years ago. The farm is placed in a special protection Area "El Sueve" mountain range at Ribadesella Village and just 3.8km from Vega Beach, one of the best Surf beaches in Spain.

Accommodation
Will provide you with an accomodation on Shared room of max 8 people on a regular bed (90cm) and space for your Stuff.
For food, we sometimes give some RANDOM lunch together, but we do not want to be in charge of your food. The supermarket it a bit far away but we will make sure that every week (or more) we go together so everyone can buy their things. You will have kitchens to cook - our kitchen is placed outside! So with an amazing view over the valley.
What else ...
During High Seasson there is a lot of cultural activities and parties going on close from here. There is a small bus that goes to the village of Ribadesella(15minutes) where you can hang out. 1km from the house there is a creek with waterfalls where you can jump and swim. 3.8km there is Vega Beach with Summer beachclubs with livemusic and nightlife. If you like mountains we are located 25km from European peaks Natural Park. If you want to know where you come from must visit The Asturias Jurasic museum just 20 km from here. There is a small local Bar/Supermarket 800m from the farm. Big supermarket 4 km. I have been surfing around the world many years and never seing as beautifull beaches as Llanes has, just 10km from here.
For transport there is a busstation nearby that brings you to for example Gijon and Ribadesella, and from there to many more places!
If you want to come here we just ask you one thing. Needs to respect our lifestyle, it doesn't matter you don't know nothing about it, but we want to see you putting effort on it🙃🌊

Our hosts welcomed us with open arms, they were very present, generous and adorable. I had a wonderful time in their beautiful home, the mountains around are incredible. We could also borrow their boards and surf the beautiful beaches of Ribadesella...
