Hi ! I am Sandy, an English woman of 60 years old, I live with my husband Steve of 61 years old. He has very poor eyesight and I am deaf in one ear, this means you need to speak loudly and clearly to me please 🙏🏻
We live in a beautiful wooden cabin in front of the dam/lake of Riudecanyes, with a nice view of the Riudecanyes village. We can also see the sea which is about fifteen minutes away by car to Cambrils Town.
We have a mini long haired 'sausage' dog (Dachshund) Pedro and Riude (Rudi) the rescue cat. We try to live our lives in peace, enjoying the beautiful views and tranquility.
We recently added a vegetable garden and do not use pesticides. We appreciate anyone who has experience and loves to help with this kind of thing.
We also have a chicken coop, constructed with natural and reclaimed materials from our land. We bought six female feathered friends on 07/03/2024 🐔 Help with them will also be greatly appreciated. Cleaning out the coop and feeding.
We aren't vegetarian but Sandy does cook quite a few vegetarian dishes. If we eat meat, it is usually chicken, turkey or fish. We like organic food and we try to eat healthy.
It is a real bonus for us if you can cook to give Sandy a rest 😊
We aren't smokers, but you can smoke outside without a problem.
We are OFFGRID and our electricity is solar. Our water supply is from a borehole/well, 75 metres down into the ground.
We have propane gas to cook and heat the water for showers.
It is very different to being connected to mainstream power sources, so we must be very mindful of this and careful with usage.
We have a washing machine for laundry.
We do not require you to be vaccinated.
We have wifi in all the house.

Sandy knows many English food recipes and some other cuisines. We both love to sample recipes from your country.
We can also teach some English language.
We are very interested in what happens around the world.
Ayuda
We need help with the maintenance of our land; Cut the grass, prune some trees, fix or rebuild stone walls, source and chop firewood, etc.
Maintaining the vegetable garden, planting, watering, nurturing etc.
Feeding and caring for the chickens. Cleaning out the coop.
We also need help inside the house; small maintenance jobs and cleaning. Being mindful that there is a blind person on site, who uses memory and touch to live. Keep your personal space clean and tidy. Leave the kitchen and shared bathroom clean and tidy. Toilet lid down 😁
If you can cook and you have some great recipes that would be fantastic as it is nice for me, Sandy to have a rest from time to time.
If you have a good heart, are respectful that this is our home, not a hotel and want to help, you are welcome ❤🙏🏻🌟

We are happy to help you with your English.
Alojamiento
We live in a homely and rustic wooden cabin with a comfortable mezzanine bedroom for you upstairs. There are three single beds, two bedside tables with lamps and a chest of drawers and hanging space for your clothes etc.
We also have a smaller wooden cabin with one single bed (180cm) a chest of drawers and a small desk with chair. It has an electrical point and a WiFi booster.
Sometimes if we host more volunteers, we use our family guestroom downstairs.
Algo más...
We usually eat twice per day but understand that you may want to eat breakfast (cereals & fruit or our own free range eggs), a cold sandwich lunch and a cooked evening meal. We do not cook food at lunch time. Note that we do not provide snacks in between.
When you go shopping with Sandy you can buy your own snacks then or Riudecanyes village shop is only a 3km walk.
We are flexible with the help, but we need at least 4 hours, this can sometimes be spread out throughout the day.
If there is an emergency and we require help, the time can be compensated another day. This might mean going out searching for our dog if he decides to go walkabout.
It is really appreciated if you can still water the plants at the weekend if you are here.
Sandy is a Bioresonance Therapist, using Quantum magnetic and frequency equipment to diagnose, treat and heal. She is extremely passionate about natural medicine.
There is one bicycle that can be used.
Staying here is like living as a family, it is not a business ❤🙏🏻🌟

Malte was with us for about one month and during that time he was extremely helpful and considerate.
He adapted to our circumstances very well and used his own initiative to fix things if they broke.
We were sad to see him leave and have no problem in recommending him to other hosts.

What a fantastic couple who restored my faith in humanity. Bram and Fauve were so helpful and self motivated. They were excellent team players and also great at doing specialist jobs alone. Fauve made us a super kaftan each and Bram built a roof for our wood store out of bamboo that we found growing nearby.

This was our second workaway experience and it couldn't be better. We stayed for two weeks on 'their mountain'. Sandy is a great cook and made very sure our bellies were full. Steve is one of the funniest guys we've ever met. We felt really welcome in their house and their sausage dogs are super cute and friendly. Ridiculoustown (Riudecanyes) is a… read more

Gonzalo was an absolute gem to host. Very proactive and self motivated. His skill set was second to non, it was amazing to see what he could do.
The other advantage that was brilliant was he spoke fluent Spanish which really helped in communication with our WiFi company.
Was really sad to see him go and there will always be a home for him here.

Sandy and Steve are my first hosts in Spain. It is the first time I lived with an English family. It was really interesting to hear all the time English around the house without any Italian, German or Turkish. The interesting thing about this experience was having the potential to understand all the conversations. According to my attention and… read more

Highy reccomend this absolute treasure.

Youssef is a very pleasant and amenable young man.
He worked hard on the land, clearing it cutting firewood with our other Workaway. They made a great team.
Whilst he was here, he cooked an amazing and extremely tasty Egyptian dish.
He even trusted me to cut his hair, I am a trained Barber, he seemed really pleased with the result.
