Experience real rural life in the beautiful mountains of Ávila, Spain

  Descripción

  Hi! My name is Pablo and I live in a beautiful and very quiet mountain area in Ávila, about 1.5 hours from Madrid. This is a self-sustainable house surrounded by incredible nature, amazing views and no neighbours. The property is quite large so I need help with gardening, land management related tasks as well as basic DIY and housekeeping.
  
  I’m a calm person who likes walking in the forest, watching birds, reading by the fireplace and learning new things. I can speak Spanish & English and I’m currently learning Japanese and Russian. Before moving to the countryside I used to work as a Spanish language teacher abroad, so I'm very happy to help anyone who wants to learn Spanish. I’m also interested in yoga (although I’m a complete beginner) and organic farming.
  
  If you love hiking, photography, wildlife or just being in a peaceful environment, you will feel at home here. It's great place to experience real Spanish rural life, nature and silence. If you like this kind of lifestyle, I’d be happy to welcome you!

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  I'm very interested in languages and I'm happy to do a language exchange during your stay. My native language is Spanish and I have quite a lot of experience teaching it. I can also speak English and I'm currently learning Japanese and Russian by myself. I'm also interested in learning the basics of any other language.

  Ayuda

  Most of the help we need is outdoor and related to keeping the land healthy and safe:
  - Clearing bushes and dry vegetation to prevent forest fires in the summer
  - Gardening (pruning, raking leaves, removing weeds, etc.)
  - Painting some walls or old furniture
  - Cooking, cleaning and keeping the house nice
  - Occasionally helping with translations (mostly into Japanese)
  The help is not complicated, but some days can be physically active. We will do tasks together at a fair pace, and there will be time to rest and enjoy the surroundings.
  
  We're looking for volunteers who:
  - Enjoy nature and outdoor life
  - Are in good physical condition or like housework
  - Feel comfortable being in a very quiet place (no neighbours, lots of silence)
  - No smoking or drugs of any kind (light alcohol consumption is ok)
  - No pets
  - Have some skills like yoga, language teaching, website building, cooking, organic farming, any kind of DIY...
  
  At the moment we’re looking for volunteers on January, February, March & September 2026. We specially need help from March 1st to March 6th, when we will be clearing dry vegetation in the surrounding land for fire prevention.
  
  There will be about 5 hours per day (split between morning and afternoon) from Monday to Friday. Saturdays and Sundays are off.

  I love languages and I have worked as a Spanish teacher abroad for quite a few years. I'd be very happy to help you with your Spanish and I'd love to learn some of your language as well!

  Alojamiento

  The house is large and comfortable. You will stay in a shared room with 1 or 2 volunteers of the same gender. The room has a private bathroom with a shower. The beds are comfortable, and I provide clean sheets, towels and basic toiletries.
  
  I will cover food expenses (breakfast, lunch and dinner), but we will need to cook for ourselves (cooking skills are appreciated). There is a supermarket in a nearby town if you want to buy anything extra for yourself.
