I´m a sculptor living & working in an old farmhouse in a quiet rural area 20 mins from the city by bus. Most importantly I want to paint & prepare another room for quests, white-wash (a lime based eco paint) the house, move firewood, cut back an ivy bush etc. I have an eco-friendy seasonal vegetable garden that I need help to extend. I speak fluent Spanish and English, as I´m Irish. We can visit the Pyrenees one day at w/e sharing fuel expenses

Mainly, I need help reclaiming wild areas of the garden, clearing overgrowth which can be strenuous, maintaining the area around the workshop, the patio of the house, and the vegetable garden during planting season (April). Some light building jobs, weeding, moving firewood. Nothing too dificult, but very active and you need to be enthusiastic about it.
I´d like help usually in the morning for 4 hours a day in return for comfortable accommodation and good food . The rest of the day, you are free. You have your own room, comfortable bed and a shared bathroom. There are two bikes for your use, you can visit local villages. I will show you round the city and then can bring you to the bus stop to catch a bus to the city centre (25mins). One day at the w/e we can do a trip to the Pyrenees, sharing the fuel bill. Bring money for your own entertainment, travel expenses, special foods etc
No use of recreational drugs whatsoever nor smoking or vaping in the house, and only light consumption of alcohol after work hours. Respect the house and the local customs. I can´t cater for special diets but eat a very healthy selection of food, (I´m an omnivore) grown locally when in season and if available . I meditate daily, you can join me if you like, I can even teach you. MAGA and Zionist supporters please refrain from applying. This is a LGTB-safe environment. As my house is partially off-grid, use of resources like electicity but especially water must be kept within limits. The day is structured and I like to keep it that way;-)), allowing time for well organised work but also individual rest time. We eat togehter and after siesta time is SACRED! ;-)
