  Description

  Greetings from Juan & Victor! We are the proud custodians of a unique home in Mondoñedo, Lugo, a part of which operates as a cultural center. Our home is more than just a place to live - it's a living piece of history, a cultural hub, and a testament to the rich heritage of our city.
  
  We are excited to open our doors to a passionate individual who appreciates historical environments and is eager to learn how to maintain and preserve such unique spaces. As a part of our family, you will be involved in a variety of activities, including gardening, cleaning, and light DIY tasks, non of them will be related to the room rentals or the event hiring.
  
  Living here is not just about helping with the day-to-day tasks, it's about immersing yourself in a cultural and historical journey. You will learn to care for antique furniture, gain insights into interior decoration, understand the nuances of building restoration, and develop your green thumb with our gardening projects.
  
  We are looking for someone who is not just looking for a place to stay, but someone who is willing to become a part of our story, contributing to the preservation of our home and cultural center. If you have a passion for history, culture, and hands-on learning, we would love to welcome you through Workaway. Join us, and let's make history together!
