  • Description

    Hi there!

    We’re Sava (34 | Dutch) and Andrea (29 | Valenciana), a married couple passionate about rural living, mountain hikes, meditation, and soulful projects. We're driven by a shared dream: to deepen our learning in permaculture, bioconstruction and renovation projects, and low-footprint homesteading before starting our own family in nature.

    We’re looking for a place to stay for a minimum of 3-4 months, starting September or October 2025, until the end of June 2026 at the latest.

    Andrea is a human rights lawyer and artist, pursuing her dream of studying sustainable fashion through a part-time master in Barcelona.

    I’m a coach and breath work facilitator, helping people align their work and life with what truly matters to them. The past few years, I’ve been living nomadically, organizing retreats and wilderness expeditions across Europe and Patagonia. But now married, I increasingly feel the need to put down roots and get my hands dirty, especially in areas like permaculture, bioconstruction, and self-sufficient rural living.

    We both have part-time availability: I can contribute around 15 hours per week (occasionally more), and Andrea can offer a 8-10 hours a week depending on her study schedule.

    We’re not looking for a traditional full-time WWoofing-style experince, but for a medium- to long-term arrangement where we can contribute through meaningful work, and also support the stay financially if needed.

    We’d love to find a place with good energy, authentic people, surrounded by nature, where we can contribute, learn, and be part of a values-driven project.

    With love,
    Sava and Andrea

    ¡Hola!

    Somos Sava (34 | holandés) y Andrea (29 | valenciana), una pareja casada apasionada por la vida rural, las caminatas por la montaña y la meditación. Nos une un sueño compartido: profundizar en la permacultura, la bioconstrucción y rehabilitación, y una vida autosuficiente con bajo impacto antes de formar nuestra propia familia en la naturaleza.

    Buscamos un lugar donde quedarnos un mínimo de 3 a 4 meses, a partir de septiembre u octubre de 2025, hasta como máximo finales de junio de 2026.

    Andrea es abogada de derechos humanos y artista, y está cumpliendo su sueño de estudiar moda sostenible a través de un máster a tiempo parcial en Barcelona.

    Yo soy coach y facilitador de respiración, y acompaño a personas a alinear su vida y trabajo con lo que realmente importa. En los últimos años he vivido de forma nómada, organizando retiros y expediciones en la naturaleza por Europa y la Patagonia. Pero ahora, ya casado, siento cada vez más el deseo de echar raíces y ensuciarme las manos — especialmente en temas como permacultura, bioconstrucción y vida rural autosuficiente.

    Ambos tenemos disponibilidad a tiempo parcial: yo puedo colaborar unas 15 horas semanales (a veces más), y Andrea puede ofrecer entre 8 y 10 horas a la semana, según su calendario de estudios.

    No buscamos una experiencia tradicional tipo WWOOF a tiempo completo, sino una estancia de medio o largo plazo donde podamos contribuir con trabajo significativo, y también apoyar económicamente la estancia si es necesario.

    Nos encantaría encontrar un lugar con buena energía, personas auténticas, rodeado de naturaleza, donde podamos aportar, aprender y ser parte de un proyecto con valores.

    Con cariño,
    Sava y Andrea
