Help with gardening and enjoy the beautiful rural life in Spain!
The experience
It is about helping me with the maintenance of a rural house and outdoor areas (pool, lawn, greenhouse, etc.) that are on the property. So far I have been taking care of it myself, but due to my age and because my back isn't very good, I need someone to help me. Your collaboration will be from Monday to Friday from 09:00 to 14:00. Accommodation, breakfast and a midday meal are provided. From Friday afternoon to Monday off.
