Want to come to Spain to work on house in return for board and lodging?

Question

I posted this question a couple of days ago, found someone who wanted to but couldn't figure out how to get back in touch!!

Anyway, we are currently restoring an old house in the Costa de Almeria, in south-east Spain and are looking for some strong fellas (people who are travelling, perhaps?) to come and help us with the work in return for board and lodging (good food!!). All weekends would be free, so you'd have plenty of time to explore this beautiful part of the world.

Anyone interested must be an animal lover, by the way!! My mum and dad have 9 rescue dogs and 5 cats (not to mention a friendly poltergeist who switches the gas off for us when we forget and opens doors for people).

A fabulous opportunity to learn about a different culture and learn the language (I will be happy to teach you).

The building will (eventually!) be a guest house, so anyone interested will be given a week's B&B free every year as soon as it's up and running. Reply or IM for more details! xxxxx

no thanks

Answer 2

This sounds like a great opportunity.  I sort of fell into doing this kind of thing because I enjoy doing it, and have made a somewhat of a second career out of it. It takes a lot of work to do this stuff, so you have to like doing it or you are doomed.  You can check out my Yahoo360 blog to see some of the things I have been working on.
