Description
We are Miriam and Venus and Teeny.
Miriam: I am a Spanish woman in her 30s and I love to travel, meet new people and hear their stories. I love animals, nature and kids, specially babies. I like to learn new things all the time because knowledge doesn't take place and is so much fun.
Since I become a mum I have been dedicating my time exclusively to Venus and I am loving it. Now I am looking for experiences that we can enjoy together.
I am used to work and live with different people and cultures. I have been living, working, studying and volunteering in different countries (Mexico, Denmark, Australia and New Zealand). My experience with workaway is from Vietnam at a kindergarten and Thailand at a school. (Nhemmisphere) summer 2016 we have been travelling with a campervan from Spain through France to Germany (staying in a permaculture b&b, rural French property and a Bavarian llama farm). November 2016 "aupair work" in Ontinyent (Spain). March 2017 "English practice" in Montichiari (Italy). July & August 2017 back again at the rural property in central France, this time house/petsitting while owner was away. November 2017 house/petsitting in central Portugal. Two weeks between July and early August 2018 back at the French rural property.
Venus: she is my 4 years old kiwi daughter. She speaks Spanglish. She loves books, building things and cooking.
Teeny "Big cat wolf" is the cat. We found him in the middle of the road one day and since then he became part of the family. So he is a workawayer cat. He had only been involved in petsitting in Portugal last year and I think he really enjoyed the company of other cats.

We hosted Miriam and Venus a year ago. We have good memories of time passed together. Alessio and Venus found a beautiful feeling. They loved play, eat and have bath together.

What a beautiful family. We didn't get too much time to know them all, which is a real shame, and participating a bit more on the project, which sounds very appealing but we had a little view on it and I truly recommend this experience to anyone, plus the ones on to permaculture and natural building would be more than happy with Daniela.
