Hola! Bonjour, Czesc, Hi ...Halo!
We are a polish-french family : Alexandra, 51 years old, Mateusz 19 and Jan 16.
We speak french, polish, spanish , english.
We are in the nature, in the province of Granada (Andalucia), on the hills of the Costa Tropical, 12km from the coastal town of Almuñecar and 2, 5 km from the village of Jete.
We have half an hectar of organic orchards : avocadoes, mangoes, oranges, mandarines, lemons, chirimoyas, goyavas, papayas etc...and many almonds trees.
So, we have often work around them, weeding, pruning, giving them fertilizer, etc...
We built our house with a lot of recycling,
We have always various maintenance works with the buildings (paint, repairs...)
We have a small vegetable garden, (not always in production), depending on the free time we have..., a few chicken for fresh eggs and cats for the pleasure...and of course, wild life makes that we meet from time to time mouses, rats, snakes, wild pigs...nice falcons

Hi! Bonjour ! Hola!
(voir version française plus bas.)
Hi!
We are looking for 1 or 2 non smoker helpers, who would enjoy the quite life on the countryside, from now on and for at least one week , who would enjoy working mostly alone , because the 3 of us are quite busy with many projects...
We are asking for 5 hours help per day (5 days per week) in exchange of accomodation in a caravan and food, or between 2 and 3 hours without the food, as you prefer .
Some of the works: cleaning the guesthouse's pool, feeding chicken and cats, watering, cooking. We are even ready to try raw eating (even better if you are used to it since a while already), because we would like to stop or reduce consequently our consumption of milk products, cereals, meat...and a lot of maintenance in the orchard and house, something on internet, etc....
Do you have skills in painting and other maintenance works like fixing a barrier, building a small wall, planting trees, expansion of the irrigation system , taking care of the vegetable garden, some help by the cleaning of the guesthouse...
We need some help also on our wordpress website ,FB , instagram...
Tell us about your skills, and centers of interests...
We look forward to meeting you!
Don't hesitate to contact us
Welcome to our beautiful place on the hills of the Valle Tropical ! ( near Almuñecar, province of Granada)

Salut ! Bonjour ! Hola !
Bonjour !
Nous recherchons un ou deux volontaires non fumeurs, qui apprécieraient la vie tranquille à la campagne, à partir de maintenant et pour au moins une semaine ou deux , qui apprécieraient de travailler principalement seuls, parce que nous trois avons déjà beaucoup de projets en route!
Nous demandons 5 heures d'aide par jour (5 jours par semaine) en échange de l'hébergement dans une caravane et des repas, ou, si vous préférez, seulement 2 ou 3 heures par jour , sans les repas.
Quelques unes des tâches à réaliser: nettoyage de la piscine du gîte, nourrir les poules et les chats, arroser, cuisiner. Nous sommes même prêts à essayer le crudivorisme (encore mieux si vous y êtes habitués depuis un certain temps déjà) car nous aimerions arrêter ou réduire drastiquement notre consommation de produits laitiers, céréales, viande...
Etes vous doués en travaux de peinture et autres travaux d'entretien comme la réparation d'une barrière, la construction d'un petit mur, la plantation d'arbres, l'expansion du système d'irrigation, l'entretien du potager, un peu d'aide pour le nettoyage de la maison d'hôtes...
Nous avons également besoin d'aide pour notre site internet wordpress, FB, instagram...
Parlez-nous de vos compétences, et de vos centres d'intérêts...
Nous sommes impatients de vous rencontrer !
N'hésitez pas à nous contacter
Bienvenue dans notre bel endroit sur les collines de la Valle Tropical ! ( près d'Almuñecar, province de Grenade)

We are quite isolated (no neighbours), on the hills covered of sub tropical orchards. To walk down to the village, we need half an hour.
Therefrom there are only a few buses to the coastal town of Almuñecar , from monday to friday, at 8:00 and 16:30, and one going to Granada at 7;15. To come back to jete, 2 buses in Almuñecar: 14:00 and 20:30, and the one from Granada at 14:15. On saturday less, on sunday nothing :-)
Coming from Malaga, many buses all the day to Almuñecar.
Arrival: the best is to pick you up from Jete at 14:15 or 20:45. We can also pick you up from Almuñecar if organised before.
During your free time, enjoy the sea, the mountains, the sun...
