Alena

Travel information

I am currently

Description

My name is Alena, I’m friendly, open-minded wanderer and a mountain (ocean) lover.

I specialize in clay plasters ( and various artistic creations made of clay such as sgraffito, sculptures, lamps …) and eco-friendly construction, but I can do any plastering work, mosaics, cordwood, cob walls, Venetian or Moroccan stucco, painting, basic carpentry, stonework…

So if you need help with a renovation, DIY or building project I am your person!

I like to breathe new life into old houses.

Anyway, I can also do: cooking (I worked as a chef for a few years), housekeeping, helping in the garden, farm (My friends have vineyards and lavender fields, so I help them with the harvest every year.), with animals, etc.

Currently I have a few months off so I want to spend them usefully, not only by discovering new places but also by helping where needed.
I believe that the universe always brings the right people together and we can always offer each other a lot.
