casual work in Nerja?
 
Hi all, I'm after some advise from people who live in or near Nerja. Basically, my husband and I want to move out to Nerja but just to be sure it's what we want, we're going out in January 09 to trial it for six months, and we're wondering how viable it'll be to work?

He wants to teach pc literacy and do pc repairs - this would be something like showing beginners how to use email etc., and fixing their computers - and I would like to do something along the lines of cleaning apartments etc., after holidaymakers have gone before the new ones arrive. Maybe be a keyholder for absent landlords and take general care of their property, that sort of thing.

We don't want high pressure jobs anymore - just simple earn-your-pennies-and-go jobs :)

Would either of those things be something we could earn money at there? Oh and it would need to be a cash in hand type thing for the six months! If we do go out permanently, we'd do the proper paperwork but it's not really worth it if we end up coming back.

Thank you for your time
Lynn

Unfortunately Spain is more of a place for (earn) Take-your-pennies-and-go jobs.
Maybe have a read of a few of the other threads on here regarding working in Spain.
This one is about being self employed.
