Algo más...
Málaga is a large city in the southern Spanish region of Andalucia and capital of the Malaga Province. The largest city on the Costa del Sol, Malaga has a typical Mediterranean climate and is also known as the birthplace of famous Spanish artist Pablo Picasso. The city offers beaches, hiking, architectural sites, art museums, excellent shopping and cuisine. While more laid back than Madrid or Barcelona, Malaga is still the center and transport hub for the hugely popular Costa del Sol region, which is flooded with tourists in the summer, and the city has certainly cashed in on the sun and sand, with lots of new construction as well as hotels and facilities geared to tourists. However, Malaga also offers some genuinely interesting historical and cultural attractions in its old city and its setting on the coast is still beautiful.

We spent just a few short days with Doug and Wendy (10) The accommodation was 5 star, well beyond our expectations as was the sit down breakfasts and three course lunches provided by Wendy. More often than not we could not partake of the snack offered later for the evening. Our tasks were clearly defined each day and it was a welcome relief to be… read more

During our stay we assisted with gardening and DIY projects around house.

Regrettably only a short stay with us but Diana and Kyle were the perfect guests. Enjoyed intelligent conversations which extended breakfast time but they both worked extremely hard and our garden proved the benefits from it. Can thoroughly recommend them to future hosts.

Kumal & Brendan joined us for their first workawayer experience . They were polite and willing to learn our ways of working with Workaway. They completed all of the tasks asked of them with a happy disposition even with the excessive heat. We are sure they will be an asset to other hosts and expand their experience in varied fields

We were a little surprised with Maria’s goth like appearance when we picked her up at the station.

Doug and Wendy are kind, freindly and engaging hosts.

I am very grateful for the time I shared with Doug and Wendy at their luxury villa in early December. After my first work day we were already taking a trip to Nerja village along the coast to enjoy a sunny day there. Two days later we were in Granada. What an itenerary they had arranged for me, and I was beginning to feel guilty for not working… read more

We had the pleasure of hosting Nadia at our villa here in Andalusia for a couple of weeks. She is a very happy cheerful lady who was happy to turn her hand to anything. We would certainly have no hesitation in recommending her to any prospective hosts and would welcome her back to stay with us at anytime.

I have been something like a month with Doug and Wendy. I had a great time at the Villa with the splendid view.
We went to Gibraltar for about a week to paint and polish Doug´s boat. I figured that it is not my thing.
The hosts took very good care of me. I have been asked each time when they left for any reason if I would need something.… read more

Rowena was with us for a few weeks and took and completed her tasks very well. Her profile is very accurate in describing a happy, cheerful personality who is a pleasure to have around. We know her ambition to spread her zest for life and bring happiness to the many refugee children in Europe and we wish her every success in doing this.

Wendy and Doug are wonderful hosts. We were treated with generosity and almost feel like family! We were given clear and easy to follow instructions for what was expected of us and our accommodations far exceeded what we expected! This was our first workaway experience and it's going to be a memory to cherish for a long, long time!
