  Description

  we are a family, Marc, Marloes, Jules, Lauren and our dog Harrie. We decided in 2022 that life could be different, looking for adventure, sold everything in the Netherlands and bought our new house in Spain, La Nucia, next to Altea.
  Sounds simple and in the end it was, of course we had quite way bumps but that was what we were looking for anyway, adventure!
  
  Our oasis is located in La Nucia, almost 10.000m2 of land in the Campo. that means "the countryside" in Spain.
  
  We would like to self-supply as much as possible . We have lots of nuts and fruit trees in the garden but there may be more ;-) We can also enjoy fresh eggs daily.
  
  Marc likes to be busy with anything and everything. mountain biking, paddling, water sports, working on one of his garage projects.
  
  Marloes has started her Bodyfrequence practice at home, she loves rest, reading and good conversations. Hiking in nature with Harrie.
  
  We heard about workaway through friends and were immediately enthusiastic.
  We bought a finca in Spain of which especially the garden was very neglected. We have already cleaned up a large part but we would like to make it even more beautiful.
  
  our dream is a small campsite on our land, for this we need to cultivate the land and make the yard cosy. We also have a nice multi-purpose room above our garage, which Marc is going to turn into a studio and could use some help with.
  
  we are currently looking for someone who can work independently on creating a bathroom, tiling, plastering, plumbing

  Aide

  We would love to host a couple or two friends who are traveling together.
  
  On our finca there are all kinds of big and smaller tasks,
  As our first project we would like to convert an existing building into a bathroom for our guests. Currently there is a very nice 2 person caravan but it has no bathroom. Of course we do have an outside shower and guest toilet.
  
  
  We would also like to create a vegetable and herb garden. Knowledge of this is very desirable because we know very little about it.
  
  We love good and healthy food, it would be nice if you could provide dinner 5 days a week.
  We love the cuisine of the world and want to teach this to our children.
