  Description

  Je parles Francais.
  
  
  Hello! My name is Maëlle but friends call me Mox or Moxi. I live in a small village in the South of Spain in a loft apartment with two cats.
  
  I'm 40 years old. My father is French and my mother is Colombian so I speak French and Spanish fluently. I'm a painter, I work with acrylics and watercolor. I also write, dance, and like to have deep conversations. I'm quite a talker when you get me going but can be very quiet and introverted. I do smoke herb (can't stand tobacco) inside my house but keep it very well ventilated. I do eat meat and need you to be able to cook meat. I love meeting new people and sharing my magical little cabin with others.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  This is a village in the deep South of Spain, if you don't know about Spain, it's a great place to learn. It's also an hour away from major cities, and even closer to small but beautiful towns like Ronda and Coín. There are buses to go to Malaga but not enough to go on an extended day trip. If you want to paint I have some materials I can share, and my family is Colombian so depending on when you're here you might experience some Colombian culture as well.
  
  You can go hiking, and when it's warm there are a couple of beautiful water spots with waterfalls within hiking distance.
  The town is a quaint quiet little town that has the very basics.
  It's a small conservative town so you get stared at if you're new, but it's still relatively safe.

  Aide

  I live in a small a house that's broken down into three apartments, with my family living right below me. I've had a very hard time making friends and finding community here do to the town being very small, conservative, and limited in resources.
  
  I have chronic depression and am AuDHD which combined with the job market, makes it incredibly hard to move forward. I am not physically handicapped but high levels of fatigue and the executive dysfunction I get are at times paralyzing.
  
  I am essentially looking for someone to help me with things like cooking, grocery shopping, taking care of the cats, and some cleaning. For example the kitchen is yours to take of, I'd like some help cleaning the cat litters, about once a week I'd need help folding sheets, and sometimes you'd go out to run errands. Most of the day and week is yours to do as you please.
  
  In regards to the village: If you're looking for a beautiful, quiet, serene place to do plenty of hiking, that's an hour away from Malaga and Marbella then you'll love the village I live in. If you need nightlife, cultural things to do, or plenty of people, this is not your place and you will get bored.
  
  It is very unlikely that I will accept a cis-hetero man in my house but you can try if you're really called to.
  
  Our space is a pro-Palestine, anti-fascist, anti-racist, LGBTQ-friendly, protects trans lives, pro-choice, community-minded space, and in order for us to feel safe we need you to have the same moral values.
  
  My ideal wish would be that I find a few true good friends doing this, perhaps you're traveling and need to take a break, or you're looking for a quiet getaway. This would be it. If this is resonating with you and you're at all excited with the idea, please send me a thorough message telling me what you think, and let's get the conversation going. I'm very excited about the possibilities.
  
  When sending me a message: Please tell me what you're comfortable doing based on what I've written so I know you've read me, please don't send me anything that's copy paste or written by chatgpt as I can tell (I'm not looking for you to write correctly, I want to hear YOUR voice) feel free to mention your politics, how long you'd like to stay, and why you think my place is a good fit for your expectations.
  
  Talk to you soon!

  Hébergement

  We share the whole apartment. I have hot water, blankets, and the weather here is usually fairly comfortable unless it's the middle of winter or summer, in which case there's a heater and a fan. I cover basic food elements.
  
  I live in a remodeled barn attic apartment, so I have high wooden ceilings and thick white walls. The living room, kitchen, and dining area are all one big space.
  
  You would be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room, which would be your area. I have a small dining table and some chairs in the living room and fast wifi. My mother and sister live in the apartment below me, and we all have access to a yard and garden that we're working on to make it our little paradise. You would have full access to the apartment (except my bedroom) and the yard.

  Autres infos...

  There are buses every day to Malaga and nearby towns and taxis. There are a lot of places to go hiking, and places to go swimming during the summer which you can go on your own or sometimes my mother and sister go. I am usually too tired.

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  You can work on the dining room table, and the internet is great, I work from home. There's a place five minute walking distance where you can print and make copies.
