  Description

  Hi, we are a lesbian couple, Stefani and Vivian.
  
  The property is rural, so we need someone who are ok to stay in a quiet place with limited public transport. We prefer women/femme folks.
  
  We are on the left politically, and like deep talks and learning about the world. We both like photography, good conversation, series/films, samba, psychology, enjoying life and learning new things. We are learning to sew at the moment.
  Vivian is originally from Norway, and Stefani from Brasil. Vivian likes board games, gardening, cooking. Stefani likes skateboarding, film making, sports, playing drums (although she doesn't have any at the moment).
  Betty is out little rescue dog. She barks a bit, but she is all bark, and no bite. She is a tiny dog with a big personality. A bit naughty, smart, stubborn, and absolutely charming and adorable. She is elderly (11yo), but sometimes act like a puppy,and sometimes like a grumpy old lady. She is allowed on sofas and chairs.
  
  The location is a bit remote, when it comes to amenities. Although we are close by car to a hospital, gas station and several towns with shops and cafés. If you don't have your own car, there is a bus at 8.15 and the return trip is by appointment in an app. The latest you can get a return is 14.30. The bus goes to and from Lliria.
  
  In Lliria you can get the metro to Valencia. If you want to go somewhere after this time, you only have the option of a taxi. It is about 20€ to go to Lliria. It is about 10-15 minutes drive (more with the bus).
  
  The nearest town that has a couple of cafés and a little convenience store is Domeño, about a 45 min walk. There is also a bus to Valencia from there, but you will have to call and pre-book it. Also there are lots of small roads to go walking, and there is a hill behind, that lends itself to small hikes.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  If you are interested in Norwegian or Brasilian culture, we are happy to share. Since we are not spanish, the experience will be more multi-cultural than Spanish. We are social, but slightly introverted people. So we like to hang out, but also value quiet time/privacy at times.
  
  I can offer housing, food and very flexible work. We can come to an agreement that suits us both in regards to working hours/free time.
  
  My house is in the country side, in a small urbanisation, which means there are some neighbors, but not many amenities. A lot of the houses here are holiday/weekend homes. On the other side of the road is "wilderness". So it is more of a quiet area, and not the belly button of the world. It is a perfect place to relax in the sun and swim in the pool.
  
  The experience is more of calm and tranquility, pool life, and gardening. It is not party central.

  Aide

  Vivian is chronically ill and disabled and because of that we need some extra help with getting the house and garden, ready for sale. The gardening could involve weeding, cutting bushes, hedges and trees, planting a bit of flowers and checking the watering system for leaks. In the house we want to have a deep cleaning, so cleaning inside cupboards and cleaning walls and a dusting the ceilings, all surfaces etc. Also helping with organising stuff and selling on Facebook, being the point of contact (mostly in English, as we sell on an English run page). We also need help cleaning the pool about once a week. We have an instruction guide for that, so you don't need any experience.
  
  And the other important task is helping with Betty, our little dog. Walking, bathing and sometimes "baby sit" as she has separation anxiety and cannot really be alone.

  Hébergement

  The accomodation for the workaway is a casita next to the house and garden. It has its own kitchen and bathroom. The water heater is not working, so you can have showers in the house. It does not have aircondition, but has a floor fan. You will be cooking your own meals. We provide a base pantry of dry goods, and then provide you a budget/money to buy your own proteins, vegetables and other fresh things.
  
  Please note that the internet is not very good here, and there is little to none in the casita, but the terrace usually has ok reception. So it might help if you have a Spanish or international data plan on your phone.
