Description
Our home is located in a rural mountain village in the spectacular Quirós Valley of Asturias. We accept people who like nature, good food and good company. The chores vary depending upon the season.
I am originally from Colorado in the USA and have been living in Spain for 27+ years. I am an avid skier, hiker, and world traveler. Juan Carlos is a classic Spaniard who loves to share the knowledge of history with our guests and workawayers. He's very passionate about food and wine.
During the spring, there will be garden preparation and planting, general exterior help. In the summer months, expect to be weeding and watering the gardens.
In the fall, it'll be harvest time and cleaning up the garden.
In the house, we prepare communal meals which we enjoy together.
Meal preparation and clean-up form part of this task.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre

You and Camille were fantastic people to have here at our little hotel here in Asturias. Your presence and goodwill brought so much alegria to our household. I can't wait to visit you "near" Le Puy en Velay someday or welcome you back at our home here in Spain.
Good luck with your studies and keep in touch.
Abrazos.

He was helpful in many ways. Not only was he very punctual in the mornings, he was always willing to go the extra mile to get the job done. I would not hesitate to have Haroon back with us in the future. He is a very pleasant person to be around. Great energy.
We loved having you here with us.
We loved loved loved the way you led your yoga classes each and every day! You're helping in the garden areas and with the guests was fantastic.
Good luck with your journey in yoga.

Incredible folks, I spent 3 weeks with Juan Carlos as Judy was guiding a Camino trek, but did get to meet her and her amazing energy in the last few days! Juan and I had great discussions each morning over coffee, during the days and at night (almost always in the kitchen) where he is a master! The food is… read more

My stay with Judy and Juan Carlos was amazing, as my first Workaway, I would definitely recommend it. Staying with them was more than I expected, as soon as I arrived, I was treated like close family, according to Juan Carlos, I'm his 'hija'. As my first Workaway, I felt very spoilt, being given a very comfortable room of my own, having… read more

My time in Faedo, Asturias has just come to an end... this time. I will return to see Judy and Juan Carlos in the near future. It is 110% worth the experience!!!
