  Description

  We, Sarah & Viktor, a couple (German and Lithuanian) who bought a rural land in February 2022, are looking for help on our finca and olive grove on the lovely and sunny island of Fuerteventura where we want to build an ecofarm. We mainly need help with basic and simple gardening and building tasks on the land (collecting stones, building a fence, planting, making a compost toilet, outdoor kitchen etc.).

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We live on the sunny island of Fuerteventura on Canary Islands. The Canarian culture is quite different from the typical Spanish culture, everyone might know. You will be able to get to know this beautiful rocky island, meet people from everywhere as it is quite international here as well and practise Spanish if you want to improve your skills. We also speak several other languages if this is something you might be interested in.
  We could also go surfing together or we show you some hidden spots on the island.

  Aide

  We bought the land in February 2022 and it is still very basic. For now, we are looking for help with basic and simple gardening and building tasks. You should not be afraid of tackling tough but simple tasks and love to work outdoors.
  
  We would require you to work between 4-5 hours 4-5 days a week, but this would also be quite flexible.
  
  With the time we want to make it more comfortable, we almost finished our outdoor kitchen area and started with a compost toilet that need some work to be done.
  
  We need help with gardening tasks, but also building tasks, woodwork, collecting stones, building fences or wind barriers, planting, supervising our irrigation system... There is something for everyone and every skill.
  
  Besides, you will have plenty of time to discover the beauty of this island, go surfing, go to the beaches, enjoy local food and have a nice barbecue with us.

  Autres infos...

  We highly recommend that if you want to travel the island in your time off, you should rent a car. There are also buses that take you to the bigger places but their frequency varies a lot ;-)
  In your time off you can also go to the nearby beach (from our house about 10 minutes walking distance) or learn to surf (15 minutes by car to the next surf spot) or any other watersport.
  
  If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

  Espace pour garer des vans

  We offer a guestroom in our house 10 minutes away from our finca. You can also stay on our finca directly if you are travelling with your campervan and prefer this. If you are completely self-sufficient (regarding electricity, for example) and looking for a quiet place, it is the perfect place for you. There is plenty of space to put the car or a caravan but please be aware that there is currently no electricity (we are working on installing solar panels, though). Should you need to wash your clothes or anything else, you can do that at our place, of course. There is a small shed on the finca that can be locked and used for storage.
