Urgent - Looking for a workaway (Costa Del Sol)
Hi all,
My name is Connor, I'm an 18 year old male from Cornwall, UK.
Next month I plan to go out to the Malaga/Marbella area of Spain.
I plan on spending a week getting familiar with the culture and getting settled in before moving on to something else.
I am offering my experience within the IT industry, graphic design, getting a business online and a variety of other work experience skills including basic construction and gardening.
If possible I would be happy to offer all that I can give in return for accommodation, I'm flexible with times but would really like to spend as much time in Spain as possible as I need a fresh start and something new.
I would really love to hear from you if my offer interests you in any way. Please email me on <snip> as soon as possible. I can begin work on the 10th May 2015.
Thank you,

Hi there & welcome to British Expats.
I can see that you have originally placed this thread in Jobs Wanted which is really the right sort of place for such a request.
However, I think you may benefit from some input from those that are currently living and working in Spain at this time, so I am moving this to the Spain forum for you.
It will help if you can say if you can speak Spanish and why you are thinking of Spain rather than other countries.
Have you heard of WWOOF ? Click the link. This programme offers accom in exchange for work.
Have you heard of working holiday visas at all?
To all you Spain lot. Please be gentle & kind with the help and guidance.

Hi and a warm welcome to the Spanish forum on BE. Myself and Fred James are the moderators for the Spanish forums whilst BEVS moderates Europe. Moderators are there to ensure that the site runs smoothly within the rules of BE.

I presume you're aware of the excellent Workaway site, also HelpX a similar site which are both very successful in providing placements for temporary workers/helpers ?
Speaking Spanish is not essential as there are many resident mostly retired ex UK hosts looking for various forms of assistance.
