Detalhes

Descrição
First of all, I'm sorry about the out of date photos but I can't find a way to update them! Sadly, Alfonso passed away on August 3rd 2022. I will be needing help in the house and garden

The area is very pleasant, just 4 kms inland from the prettiest landscapes on the Costa Brava and there are hills too where you can go hiking. We no longer have a dog, but for animal lovers or people who enjoy being occupied there are municipal kennels for stray or unwanted dogs where you can work .
I also enjoy the cultural and personal exchange that Workaway offers.

Manutenção geral
Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
I am British but I know Spain and Catalonia very well. I also know a bit about gardening and international cookery.
Ajuda
Helpers' duties typically consist in gardening, keeping me company during the afternoon and evening plus cooking some dinner. At the moment there's not a lot to but the garden does need some attention. If you get bored, you might want to help in the municipal dog kennels Apa Rodamòn (aparodamon.com) that are quite near where we live.
I won't be able to do lifting or hard physical work for some time as I had a lumpectomy operation in August. I enjoy walking, swimming and cooking and practising languages and enjoy meeting new people.

Kathy has been a very nice host. She approched me as a friend more than a volunteer. The help needed was mostly in the garden and in the house, but very simple and nothing hard! She enjoys to share experiences so we went together to the cinema or to a nice lunch organized by her friends in the country. She is an experienced host so it is very easy… read more

As several other hosts have already said, Marcella is truly an excellent helper. She is a hard worker, flexible and skilled in many ambits. She is a pleasant person to have around the house and makes friends easily with local people. I thoroughly enjoyed her company and am grateful for all the help she gave me. Buona fortuna, Marcella!

She is a wonderfully cheerful person, a… read more
