Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We are a working pottery and although we hardly ever need help in the studio there could be the opportunity to be in the studio in your own time and with some tuition. This is a situation that would evolve and not be promised from the outset! We also have scope for exterior art projects should you have ideas and knowledge.
Aide
The main help we need this year [2022] is some general help around the home mainly in the garden and general maintenance and also perhaps a little exterior painting, cleaning etc. It would be ideal for a couple and own transport would be good though not necessary.
Langues parlées
Anglais: Courant
Espagnol: Courant
Hébergement
We have a very well equipped caravan that sleeps two and which also has enclosed decking, separate bathroom and relaxing area with comprehensive kitchen. We prefer to provide an allowance for food plus produce from the garden though still sharing some meals.
Autres infos...
We live in a very beautiful part of Andalucia about one and a half hours from the coast and within easy reach of the famous Andalucian cities. There is pretty good public transport though own transport would be easier as we live more than a kilometre from the town.

Polina and Gerrit came to stay with us for a planned three week visit before their return to Germany for Christmas. They are both very special and competent people who completed many tasks with intelligence and efficiency. The tasks that we asked them to do required much thought and planning and they turned out to be ideal for all!
