    Description

    I am a Registered Nurse, from Liverpool. I have lived in Spain for over four years. I’ve volunteered with Workaway previously, had some fantastic experiences and met amazing people. I live alone in a comfortable, traditional townhouse, it needs painting/decorating and general maintenance.
    I don't have any pets. You can bring your well behaved pet.

    If you’re happy to paint, keep the place clean and help with chores, you are welcome to stay.

    Food is provided and we can take turns to cook evening meals, I’m happy to eat alone or with you. I eat a varied diet, and am happy to cook vegetarian food. I'm not sure if I can cater for you if you have allergies, medical contraindications or intolerances. Let's talk about it though.

    I go to Iyengar yoga, in Órgiva, twice a week. You are welcome to join me.
    Sometimes I go away for weekends, you can stay in my place, when I'm not there.

    I don’t smoke, drink or take drugs. I’m ok if you do though (on the terrace).

    Happy to discuss you coming to stay, get in touch.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Salobreña is a Granada coastal town that gets busy during the summer months.
    You are welcome to have peace and quiet, work from here or immerse yourself in Spanish life. There's a cultural centre and library nearby. There’s plenty of cafes, bars, supermarkets and social events in the town.

    I travel to Òrgiva at least twice a week. There's plenty of alternative things going on there.

    There's fibre internet, you can use as much as you like.

    What else ...

    Granada is less than an hour from here. The bus to most towns in southern Spain is 10 minutes walk from the house. The Alhambra and all that Granada offers is less than an hour away.
    Malaga is just over an hour away and Almeria in the other direction over an hour away.
    The Sierra Nevada Mountains and ski resort are just over an hour away.

    I live alone, no pets, non smoker, non drinker, yoga. Travel a lot. Have moved into a house that needs painting. Have done lots of work exchanges myself, and understand how it works.
