  Description

  Hi everybody, I'm Lawrence and have lived most of my life in the beautiful seaside town of Altea, south-east Spain. I'm 46 years old and have myself been a workawayer over the past few years in France and Switzerland. Now its my turn to host a bit, I need some help at home with basic tasks around the house, cleaning and gardening, nothing complicated, just some extra help. I'm easy going and live a quiet life but am quite busy sometimes. I'm glad to share my beautiful home, dog, kitten and friends with somebody looking for some peace and tranquility and willing to help me out a few hours a day. I have been a workawayer myself so I kind of know what is expected both from the host and the workawayer. Really happy to share my mother tongues Spanish-English-Dutch and would love to improve my French and Italian, Arabic speakers also welcome.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I guess you can get a feel of relaxed Spanish life and explore the village of Altea, its old Arab heritage and beauty of the area. Just sharing the lifestyle down here will give you a taste of the place, people are friendly and open. I will be glad to share the languages I'm fluent in, my pets and times of peace and meditation. I have a good selection of self help - spirituality books you are welcome to read. I'll show you around the area and you can come along to meetings with friends and get togethers.

  Aide

  Basic cleaning, help around the house, gardening, play with my kitten if you feel like it, maybe give the dog a walk, and other bits and pieces, nothing complicated.
  
  Somedays there will be less tasks to do, others more, if we can just work around the understanding that the help hours may not be evenly spread during the week and that free days can be arranged as we go along whatever suits us both best, nothing rigid.

  Hébergement

  I can offer the workawayer a big room with a large queen size bed and on suite bathroom with shower or smaller room with two single beds and shared bathroom depending on if I have friends or family visiting. All bedding and towels provided. Kitchen is shared and it would great if we can share cooking or I can cook most days no problem.
  
  Breakfast everyone does his own thing or shared if we feel like it. Lunch shared and dinner we do what we feel like. You have access to my kitchen and fridge and will provide the basics for a good healthy diet. If you feel like any particular foods you can always buy them yourself. Just normal sharing, in my workaway experience you end up creating a friendship and everything just flows on mutual respect and understanding. I
  
  'm not offering a hotel, I'm offering to share my beautiful space and pets, town, friends and culture with the visitor in exchange for some helping hands and all they bring to offer as themselves. Thanks!
