  Description

  UPDATE DECEMBER
  
  I've recently moved to this magical place where we are surrounded by nature. There are other people living on the land with whom we have a good community dynamic, mutual aid, support, and good times together.
  
  I'm traveling between the 17th and 31th December to Spain and I need somebody to come pet sitting my dog and cat during these 2 weeks. 🙏
  
  If you can come before or leave after my dates, I'm needing some help too for DIY projects to arrange the yourt and outdoor areas: terrace, outdoor kitchen, garden...
  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  PLEASE READ EVERYTHING :)
  Hello!
  
  I'm Emma, a Galician/Mexican girl (41y.o.) I live with my son Natan (14 years old), our cat (Nawak, 15 y.o.) and our little dog Rubi (4 y.o.) at a cozy double yurt next to a little forest near (by car) from services and a lot of interesting points.
  
  The yurts are bright and comfortable, with 1 big bed (160x200), 1 sofa-bed, kitchen, bathroom (with a shower and a dried toilet) .
  
  All around, trees, forest, nature...
  
  I love music, singing, and playing guitar (a little). We often go to jam with friends.
  
  I love cooking when I have free time... (some Mexican-Galician food, and mostly, "Emma's inventions"! ).
  
  I have a little own business (I'll produce and sell some chili and spices products, without gluten , and recently I've begin to sell drinks (smoothies milkshakes, natural jus, kombucha...) at markets and festivals.
  
  I give conversational online Spanish lessons too.
  
  Natan goes to a Montessori highschool and he live half the time with his father.
  
  **We try to live in an eco-friendly and economical way, so we are attentive to reducing gas, water, and power consumption. So we will appreciate it very much if you help us with that :=)
  
  ***It is important to me that you only use eco-friendly and biodegradable cosmetics, such as shampoos, soaps, deodorants, etc. (On the one hand, I am sensitive to chemical odors, and on the other hand, the water returns to the forest through a plant-based water filter). The Earth and we ourselves will be grateful!
  
  I think you will love to be here, we love to meet new people. talk, laugh! sing!! and this area has a rich natural and cultural heritage, and there are a lot of things to do and to discover!
  As we've just moved here recently, it will be a pleasure for us to discover some places with you!
  
  Come here!! We will be happy to meet you!! ;)
  
  Gracias!! :)

  Aide

  Depending on the moment of the year, I'll be asking you to help me with some of these tasks:
  
  - Help around the house:
  I would like to spend more "quality time" with Natan, that's why I'm looking for help especially with housework, as I will be able to take advantage of those moments to be with him without stress :). I need time to work in my little busyness too, and time for taking care of myself.
  
  Cleaning, tidying the house, terrace and other outside espaces, cooking, and some interesting projects like reorganizing the space: books, furniture, etc. to make this space more pleasant! all ideas are welcome! :)
  
  - Help with DIY:
  If you are handy and know how to work with wood, I have some projects to arrange the yurt .
  
  - Playing/teaching music:
  I sing and I have also a guitar and I'd love to improve my playing... :)
  If you have musical talents we would love to learn with you! I would like to learn the piano as well..
  
  - Speaking English with us.
  
  - Help with the garden: Id like to prepare the garden for the next year.

  Hébergement

  Bed and 3 meals (you bring your snack between meals) :)
  
  We can propose you to sleep on the sofa-bed in the main yurt or in the big bed when we are traveling and you come to petsitting.
  
  IMPORTANT :
  **During breaks (lunch time...) and days off, we will share normal household chores as roommates (if one cooks, the other cleans, keep toilets, shower and sinks clean, sweep, etc.) to keep the house tidy and pleasant for everyone on a daily basis.
  
  **On the last day of your stay I will ask you to do the cleaning: wash your sheets/towels, vacuum/mop the bedroom or the space where you slept or the whole espaces if you were in House/pet sitting.
  
  **I am sensitive to tidiness, cleanliness, so please make sure you agree with these conditions, as well as the rules about our ecological and economical way of living that I mentioned above , because it is very important to us. Thank you! :) 🙏
  
  **When I ask for petsittint/housesittint, as they will not represent 4-5h work per day, and I'll not be there for the shopping, I'll offer accomodation but I'll ask you to bring/ buy your own meals. Thank you for your understanding :)
