  Hello everyone...
  
  we are Désirée & Markus and we are hosting volunteers through Workaway for our projects since around ten years.
  For our conscious, mindful and vegetarian community place we are hosting regularly long-term volunteers or volunteer couples to support us with the household, cleaning the house, gardening, maintenance of our place and for smaller handyman and DIY projects.
  
  We’re currently looking for:
  
  🧹🧺 1 volunteer starting early August (arrival 7th of August) to help with household and house cleaning. Sometimes maybe a bit gardening and smaller maintenance help. You should be tidy, reliable, and enjoy keeping things clean and organized.
  
  🌿🛠️ 1 volunteer starting early August (arrival 7th of August) for gardening, mowing, maintenance and small handyman help. You should be able to work with a lawnmower and brush cutter and have some craft skills or maybe gardening experience.
  
  
  📆 Minimum stay: 1 month (preferably longer)
  🕒 Work and exchange: Currently during the summer season, we offer an exchange of accommodation and food in return for 5 hours of work per day, 5 days a week (usually Monday to Friday but might change depending sometimes if needed).
  
  🏡 Accommodation:
  – for the housekeeping role: you would have a volunteer room in the main house
  – for the garden role: we could offer for you a caravan or optional a glamping bell tent next to the river which is flowing through our property
  👫 Couples or friends are also welcome and could share the volunteer room.
  
  As we are a mindful place you should be a reflective and conscious person and you should be ok with our vegetarian and alcohol-free and smoke-free philosophy.
  If you’re looking for a peaceful setting and enjoy contributing to a beautiful space, we’d love to hear from you!
  
  ==============
  
  Our farmhouse has been hosting workawayers for more than ten years by the owner Gonzalo.
  We, Désirée & Markus, are continuing Gonzalo's work and look forward to continuing the work with Workaway while Gonzalo retires to write a book and play chess.
  
  Our place is a magical, hidden oasis with a charming, playful Andalusian country house and a lush green garden amidst the Andalusian dry vegetation, situated on a fresh river and surrounded by babbling water canals.
  We are located near the village of Zahara de la Sierra in the province of Cádiz in the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, which offers great mountain and hiking areas. It's a great place to reconnect with nature.
  
  Our project is a conscious and mindful place with the intention of living in a sustainable way in harmony with nature and to open a space for people to find inner balance and healing.
  We are a vegan/vegetarian, alcohol-free and smoke-free place and ask people who come to our place to respect those principles.
  
  We normally need help to keep the house and the surroundings of the house nice and clean and to do cleaning tasks, gardening tasks, construction, maintenance.
  We usually have two workawayers at our place.
  
  We are looking forward t hear from you!
  
  Désirée & Markus

  Alojamiento

  Accommodation would be in a room for volunteers, in a caravan or in a glamping bell tent, depending the current availability. If you stay in the bell tent and we have free rooms on hot summer days while we have no guests, you can stay in one of our guest rooms in that time. We have a shared living room, a shared kitchen and shared bathroom in the house, as well as a compost toilet and outdoor shower outside.
  In your free time you can enjoy the garden, the river and the little pool (in summer time) or you can make hikes in the area.
  Food is currently provided but is prepared by the workawayers themselves. As said we are a vegetarian place so only vegetarian food can be consumed at our place.
  If you want to eat out, the bars, cafés and restaurants in the area are very reasonable priced.
  Depending the season and the amount of work we can either offer 3 hours of work per day in exchange for accommodation only or 5 hours of work per day in exchange for accommodation and food.

  We have a 20 Mbps internet connection and WiFi, which usually works, but as we are in the Spanish countryside and we receive the signal by antenna, it's always a possibility that the connection is not so strong when the weather is very rainy and cloudy.

  Mis animales / mascotas

  

  Kayu

  Our pitch-black panther Kayu was found by us on the street.
  After what appeared to be a car accident, we discovered him lying in a pool of blood, assuming he was dead.
  But when we tried to move him off the road, to our surprise and joy, he began to move — and he miraculously survived.
  He only lost one ear and was lovingly adopted by our mama cat Mala.

  

  Trato

  The white and grey patterned house cat of Cinco Lunas, Trato, has been living here for about 3 years.
  He doesn’t like dogs. They should watch out for him.

  

  Mala

  The black-golden brindle mother cat Mala is a rescue cat from a dog sehlter. She was taken in by us along with her five kittens.
  Her kittens have since been adopted, but the super cuddly Mala is staying with us.
