I am looking for volunteers that could help with bed and breakfast, restaurant. Whilst the restaurant and bar is now up and running. usually open 15 hours a day, run by my husband and myself. We need help to get the upstairs which had a fire and is still half built, clean.. gardens done. Various jobs. We are also over run with cats and they need sorting. we have some habitable rooms upstairs. Not luxury, but beautiful situated, near to a spanish village, with multinational patrons. Wonderful views, great cycling terrain. Food and drink provided. Not alcohol.
4 - 5 hours a day volunteering .. of grafting. in exchange for free accomodation. food and drink. and 2 days off a week. Must be prepared to work hard and get jobs done. We are in a position where we both work extremely long hours .. very hard. Would like any help.. Kitchen cleaning... Anything! Typing, menus... help with entertainment..

I assume this is some sort of joke.
No wages, just a room - I believe slaves used to be treated in that manner, but that was made illegal.

And the esteemed OP has time to go on holiday whilst advertising for slave labour.

ha haha.. I dont think I could go on holiday if someone came and did 4 hours helping out.. - who is going to work the other 16 hours of my day..lol Its not such a bad offer .. food and drink costs money.. so does petrol .. so does an ensuite room. probably min of 25 euros a day.. without any food or drink.
As far as taking a holiday.. You are joking arent you. I couldnt leave my business for a day .. let alone a week. It wouldnt be here when i returned. (well definitely not if those running it .. think 4 hours a day ..is what it takes, and then you just get in a volunteer and nip off on holiday),, You are obviously not the candidate Im looking for.

This is very true.
Perhaps you could ask Alex Haley for Kunta Kinte's number.
