  Descripción

  I am originally from Mexico and now I am a British citizen, my wife is from the UK.
  
  We both are scientists, me an applied mathematician and my wife a parasitologist.
  
  We have two sons that are pilots.
  
  We are retired and our project is to complete the development of a place in the mountains that is self sufficient as possible. at present we are self sufficient in electricity and water and aim to be as much independent in meat, fruit and vegetables. We reprocess the waste water to irrigate trees and plants.
  
  We have an apiary which a few years back had 54 beehives, now we only have 11 of them, and we are hoping to re-establish it climate change permitting.

  We have lived in other countries as well and know diverse people from all over the world. We like learning and sharing experiences with like minded people.

  Ayuda

  At present, we require help for a deep clean of the house, the car and other facilities we have in the land.
  
  Also, when I am alone, help with cooking, all meals.
  
  In general the tasks will involve gardening maintenance and planting of new tress, etc.
  
  Maintenance of buildings like painting of the wooden constructions and railings etc.
  
  We aim to have a very natural place within the hills and mountains around us.
