Description
Hello ! I am Sabine.
French woman living in Spain for many years.
Would be nice to host a couple or 2 friends to help me with the house (or one person if he knows a lot in renovation tasks), to do daily cleaning and maintenance of the garden and bricolage, all kind of little DIY. If you have your own car would be great but there is also bikes that you can use .
I would love volunteers with sens of creativity, initiatives and dedication to help me with all kind of DIY and also gardening.
I lately came back to artistic activities then artists are very welcome.
I am also very interested in learning about all kind of sportive daily activities like Taishi, Qi kung, yoga, pilates.
We always share all the general house cleaning and the cooking. Also look after Rita the cat of the house .
Fortià is a lovely village between Figueres(city) and Empuriabrava. The beaches are 7 kms from the the house. There are many interesting cultural and natural beauties around. We have bicycles to do nice excursions, also buses to visit around.
I have been myself a workawayer as volunteer during 3 years, I had a fantastic time helping other people and I know and respect the value of this wonderful exchange!
It will be a pleasure to tell you more about what you need to know then feel free to contact me!
I wish you a beautiful day wherever you are!
Thank you and best wishes.

Never any back-breaking work, and I was always offered a siesta… read more
