    Description

    Hello!
    I moved to San Isidro de El General, Costa Rica in 2015. I live in a remodeled Tico house, and have a lovely cabina on my property that I'm offering for the right person, to occupy for up to a month to help me to complete my projects.

    I'm looking for a handyman with, plumbing, garden/yard maintenance and general maintenance skills.

    My home is located in a predominantly Tico neighborhood. My neighbors are lovely, friendly people! This is not a touristy area...however, there are a number of Expats who live in San Isidro. Here, you are surrounded by nature, and within an hour of the closest beach, Dominical. There are beautiful places to hike, amazing waterfalls, exotic birds and animals,...I live at nearly 3000 ft. elevation in the mountains, just 10 minutes drive from the center of town, where the air is cooler and fresh! There is a local bus that regularly services Quebradas (my barrio), all day long. So, there is no need for a car!

    Spanish is helpful, but not required.
