Hi, are you really skilled and experiences in plumbing, electricity, or carpentry? Then you are very welcome to come over here to my old house from around 1900 on the Camino Primitivo de Santiago in a nice mountain village in western Asturias where I receive pilgrims on donation basis. You can find Polagrino on google maps to get an impression. In this region it is had to find people who can do repairs and improvements.

I always have some repairs and improvements pending. Most of the time it is not very urgent, but it would be very nice to have it solved.
examples:
Plumbing: extend the hot water system to the ground floor. For now there is only hot water on the first and second floor
Electricity: the whole system is built a bit strange, and not really professional. It would be nice to have it organized in a better way, properly. Also, i need extensions to have electricity in other parts of the house, to have plugs there and install lamps.
Carpentry: the woodwork on the balcony and windows is very old. Some pieces need replacement. If you can reconstruct or rebuild window frames in a creative way, that would be great.
Before I approve you, we can talk about what I need at that moment, in a video call. Then you can decide if you can help me out. You would work by yourself, I can assist you with basic skills.
As pilgrims come every day, the work would be concentrated in the mornings, before the pilgrims start arriving from around noon. The place needs to be ready and look decent again at that time of the day.
