    Description

    Hi! I am Adrian, I have a little farm in Salobrena, the tropical coast of Granada, with 4500 square meters of fruit trees. The main production is Chirimoya, Aguacate and Banana. I also have Papaya, Guayaba, Mango, Caqui, Pomelo, Lemon, Mandarins, Oranges, figes, granadas.

    The Granada coast is known for the tropical fruits, thanks to the long summer we have with mild temperatures during the whole year. The only trees in the land prepared for production are the chirimoyas, the rest of the trees are in the surrounding of the land creating beautiful wild spaces, and that's the reason why I call it La Selva (the jungle).

    Salobrena village is 1km, and the beach is 3 km from my land, what's gives us the opportunity, apart from being a farmer, to practice water sports such as kitesurfing, surfing, catamaran, windsurfing. There are some companies on the beach where you can get courses and be able to volunteer and learn new sports.

    You can expect to learn about tropical fruits ecological professional agriculture, construction and being independent with water and electricity system.

    Personally I love doing yoga, functional exercise, and calisthenics. In the land I am preparing spaces to practice those disciplines. Creating a grass space, also a yoga space with a nice floor and a calisthenic gym with bars is something that definitely is in my roadmap.

    I have plenty of tropical fruits you can eat. For me commitment is important, but also be happy, stay on time and be focused on what we do. I will provide all tools and protection stuff like glasses and gloves.

    Basic rules:
    Please don’t use the phone when you are working unless is an emergency.

    Keep phone conversations out of común spaces.

    No drugs, no alcohol.

    In case you need extra day off I ask you to contribute with the living cost with 30€.

    Please be independent on your free time. Walking distance are affordable.
