    Description

    We live in a rural house in the countryside of Empordà, Costa Brava, Catalonia, Spain. We have been cultivating the countryside for more than 200 years, 20 years ago we opened our first rural tourism establishment, since 2018 we have been breeding Spanish horses, and in 2024 we are going to launch our rural coliving. We love living and working here and sharing our little paradise with visitors from all over the world. It is a place of inspiration for very diverse realities, which is why we hope to receive colivers who come to grow personally, grow their businesses or simply to find the inspiration to continue moving forward.
    That's why we also have the door open to volunteers who are looking for something different.

    Vivimos en una casa rural "Masia" en pleno campo del Empordà, Costa Brava, Catalunya, España. Desde hace más de 200 años cultivamos el campo, hace 20 años abrimos nuestro primer establecimiento de turismo rural, desde el año 2018 criamos caballos españoles, y en 2024 vamos a poner en marcha nuestro coliving rural. Nos encanta vivir y trabajar aquí y compartir nuestro pequeño paraiso con visitantes de todo el mundo. Es un lugar de inspiración para realidades muy diversas, por ello esperamos recibir colivers que vengan a crecer personalmente, hacer crecer sus negocios o simplemente a encontrar la inspiración para seguir avanzando.
    Por eso también tenemos la puerta abierta a voluntarios y voluntarias que busquen algo diferente.
