Description
Different times of the year we welcome help with different tasks and projects, whether building, painting, gardening, helping the olive fields or working on creating other new things... we have many dreams, and the patience to see them realised slowly, but there's always much to do. Anyone who wants to share, enjoy and respect this beautiful home and place that we live can come. if the task that we offer doesn't suit you, or we are not as in need of help at that period as another, there are still opportunities around. We are flexible and adaptable people, but require communication for that to work. Some days we work much more, others we work less, seasonal life asks for that. So we ask that you too be open, honest, relaxed, flexible and adaptable, as we are.
looking for simple hardworking motivated people

Also, we provide food for you to cook and self-cater all food. We provide the basics but ask that if you have special requirements or particularly choose to eat more of luxury foods, that you buy for yourself or respect that we don't ourselves eat all the time but like to have for occasions, and share ours consciously.
