    Description

    4 years ago I come back to the house of my ancestors to start an amazing project. A 16th century house surrounded by nature where people can come and stay for some days with lots of diferent therapies (yoga, Psychotherapy, Qi Gong, Tai Ji, massage and some workshops about art, and alternative teraphies.
    We just bought another farmhouse (the place that we will move soon) and the help that we need now is in this amazing place. This farmhouse is in a forest close to a small and beautifull village. The house is big (200m2) and the outside is 1.500m2).
    We need help with the gardering, making a new place for our chiken, general maintenance, restore old things, painting, cleaning and cooking.
    Also we need help to feed the animals (Dogs, cat and chickens). We want to make a garden following the permacultura and respecting allways nature and the enviroment.

    Our family have a Catalan farmhouse of the XVI century close to Gerona (Catalunya). This is a very big house with a big garden of 20.000m2.
    Me and my husband bought another land with a big house in the middle of the forest and we need lot of help. The 2 places are very close to each other. This is a big project.
    We would welcome help with gardening, general maintenance, painting or cooking. Our philosophy is to live in nature trying to don't change anything and always using natural products.
    We have a baby (21 months old) and we live with 7 chickens, 1 cat and three dogs.
    In our space we do Yoga, Qi Gong and Tai Ji every week and you can join us if you like.
    We are looking for 4,5h of help (5 days a week) in exchange for food and accommodation. The minimum stay is one week and the maximum 1 month
