Description
We are a happy hippy French/australian couple who have recently purchased a beautiful hippy paradise in the hills of canon de sil in Galicia that needs some love,
we are now means professional at anything but with help and love we have started up cycling a moutain of retro furniture, and antique farm equipment and having to start from the ground up with the 4 bedrooms that haven't been used since the sixties.
So this clearly means a basic knowledge of painting and decorating would be useful. We are also in of need of artist, creative types with murals and creative art projects that are many.
In tbe garden we are looking for landscapers, and gardeners to continue helping create the wild flower garden and meditation areas whilst growing all we can to feed us and all who stay in a self sustainable eco friendly was as possible. We have many fruit giving trees including a very large wild kiwi bush that we wish to train into a out door eating canopy.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Whilst you are here there will be a lot of hikes and visits to the local markets, bars and cafes to meet with the very friendly locals.
And if you so wish thrown in for shits and giggles we could teach you, flow arts, yogo, meditation, inner engineering, woodland foraging (what to and what not to eat) mycology, bouldering, climbing, paddle boarding, canyoning, or we could just choose on of many mountain walks and stay the night in the wilderness and fall asleep star gazing. And if you are brave enough wake up to a camp coffee and natural shower in one of the many rivers and waterfalls.

I found Joe and chrissy really easy to be around and not a single sad day spent during their stay. Nothing was to much to ask, not that I had to ask as they just got on with whatever job with zero questions.
It was truly a pleasure to host them, stay free beautiful people.
Much love. D 🤓❤️
Both basa and roni have very talented and unique abilities and such beautiful energy.
Bastion literally gave us light and roni created beautiful art throughout the house, leaving everlasting reminders of them both.
Much love and peace on your adventure. We will see you soon.
