  Descrição

  Please read the entire profile before applying!
  
  Hi! We're Raquel and Marcos, a Brazilian couple in our early 40s. We've lived across three continents, spent six years in Germany, and in early 2024 took the leap we'd been dreaming of: buying a rural property in the mountains in the coast of Granada, and starting to build something real with our own hands.
  
  We're in the thick of it — renovating the house room by room, clearing two hectares of overgrown land, reviving the old almond grove, neglected for some many years, and slowly bringing this place back to life. The long-term vision is a regenerative living space rooted in permaculture and sustainable practices.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We’re a friendly couple who love sharing stories from our travels and life in different places. We enjoy sharing meals together, learn and teach different languages, swap cooking ideas, and exchange perspectives on sustainability and community living. You’ll be part of our small team, and we hope you’ll feel at home collaborating with us. We’re excited to learn from your experiences too, whether that’s a new skill, a different cultural tradition, or just a fresh outlook on life.

  THE HELP: WHAT WE NEED
  
  We’re looking for committed, hands-on volunteers to help with a range of tasks, focussed mostly on house keep-up, like helping with painting, organizing spaces, fixing small things here and there, or assisting with light maintenance + the implementation of an agroforestry system. When we have multiple volunteers staying with us, we would appreciate if you can also help prepare simple, healthy vegetarian meals for the group. Cooking happens after the main tasks of the day.
  
  THE SCHEDULE AND DAILY ROUTINE
  
  • Help Hours: 25 hours per week - 5 days.
  • Start Time: We begin at 8:30 AM, but we meet half an hour earlier to organize tasks for the day. Punctuality is crucial as many tasks require teamwork.
  • Shared Responsibilities: Doing the dishes and cleaning common areas are additional tasks that everyone shares.
  
  OTHER IMPORTANT INFO
  
  • Arrival Day: We suggest arriving on a Tuesday to settle in before starting on Wednesday.
  • Departure Day: Mondays or Tuesdays
  • Trial Period: We typically do a 1-week trial to ensure it’s a good match for both sides. If all goes well, we can discuss extending your stay (when recruiting for more than a week).
  • Not a Business: This is a personal, non-commercial project. We’re sharing our home and exchanging knowledge and culture. No financial transactions are involved.
  
  
  Our finca is a secluded rural property offering:
  
  • Spectacular mountain views and stunning sunsets over the Mediterranean Sea.
  • Tranquility for those who appreciate peace, quiet, and remote living.
  • Proximity to beaches, mountains, hiking trails, national parks and waterfalls
  • Charming Andalusian white villages nearby, rich in culture and history.
  
  Distance to Amenities
  • A 25-minute drive from the nearest village and beach, with supermarkets and shops.
  • If you don’t have a car, walking to the village takes about 1.5 hours, or you can take a taxi (about €20 per trip).
  • Please note this is a remote area: it’s perfect if you want to reconnect with nature, but not ideal if you need quick or frequent access to town.

  Acomodação

  ACCOMMODATION
  
  • We offer shared rooms for 3–4 volunteers, with a mix of single and double beds, mixed gender.

  FOOD
  
  • Vegetarian Meals: We provide a self-catered breakfast, a freshly prepared vegetarian lunch, and basic ingredients for you to prepare your own dinner.
  • On free days, we don’t provide lunch, but you are free to cook it for yourself.
  • If you want specialty items or additional snacks, you’re welcome to purchase them yourself.
  • There is a designated fridge and pantry area where you can store personal food items.

  WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
  We aim to create a harmonious living and working environment. Volunteers should be:
  • Over 25 years old.
  • Legally allowed to stay in Spain (with valid visa/health insurance if required).
  • Able to commit to at least 2 weeks (we usually start with a 1-week trial to ensure mutual compatibility).
  • Non-smokers, non-drug users, and respectful of a quiet environment.
  • Punctual and reliable, taking tasks seriously and respecting schedules.
  • Comfortable with physically demanding work and early mornings.
  • Happy to live in a remote area and not needing frequent trips to town.
  • Flexible with basic vegetarian meals, or willing to supplement their own dietary preferences with ingredients/snacks you buy yourself.
  • Dog-friendly, as we have a whippet on the property.
  • Prepared to follow house rules and share common spaces considerately.
  
  We do not accept volunteers with pets or families.
  
  
  LIFESTYLE AND EXPECTATIONS
  
  • We work remotely in full-time jobs, so we may not always be available to socialize or entertain.
  • We are easy going and do enjoy shared meals, and chatting about life and travel. However, we also value privacy and quiet time.
  • Teamwork and Independence: After initial guidance, you should be comfortable working independently or collaboratively on tasks.
  • We encourage open communication—please let us know if you have questions or concerns.
