  Description

  My name is David and I am 36 years old.
  I recently bought a small house in the mountains half an hour from Zaragoza city, which I am trying to make as self-sufficient as possible.
  The electricity goes through solar panels, I collect the water from rain, and I want to improve the collection system to make it more efficient.
  I am an easy-going person who always tries to help those next to me. I share life with 4 dogs and a cat.
  I like peace and calm.
  Because my English is very poor, it would be good if your level of Spanish was correct so we could understand each other.

  Hace poco compre una casita en el monte a media hora de Zaragoza ciudad, la cual estoy intentando que sea lo mas autosuficiente posible.
  La electricidad va por paneles solares, el agua lo recojo de lluvia, y quiero mejorar el sistema de recogida para hacerlo mas eficiente.
  Soy una persona de trato fácil que siempre intenta ayudar a quien tiene al lado, comparto vida con 4 perros y un gato.
  Me gusta la paz y la calma.
  Debido a que mi ingles es muy escaso, seria bueno que vuestro nivel de español fuese correcto para podernos enteder.

  Help

  I have recently acquired a house in the middle of the mountains and I need help with the cleaning and creation of the land, as well as the maintenance of the house and help with the animals when I am away working (4 dogs and a cat). The main tasks are construction and field, moving a tank, making concrete, clearing, etc., so it is advisable to have either the knowledge to do it or the desire and energy.

  Accommodation

  I have a room available with two 90x180 mattresses, a bedside table and a small closet, the house is as self-sufficient as possible so there is some electrical restriction since the energy is only solar and the water is from rain/tanks. The food will be totally vegan.

  Tengo una habitación disponible con dos colchones de 90x180, mesilla y pequeño armario, la casa es lo mas autosuficiente posible por lo que hay algo de restricción eléctrica ya que la energía es única solar y el agua es de lluvia/depósitos.
  La alimentación será totalmente vegana. (Nada animal ni de origen animal)

  What else ...

  The house is half an hour from Zaragoza capital, in the middle of the countryside. There is no public transportation so you will need your own means to get around. In the city they have a multitude of leisure and culture.
  The area where I live is not very nice, to be honest, so I think this workaway could be interesting for people who are passing through for a short period of time.
