OwnersAway Property Rentals

The highs & lows, ups & downs of running a property rentals business near Mojon Hills on the Costa Calida

Talking Spanish in the Sun
Thursday, March 31, 2011 @ 6:51 PM

A little more relaxced pace for me this week. One of my clients is over to stay at her villa and had booked a course of Spanish lessons on a daily basis. Despite her reservations, by day 3 she was holding simple conversations and conjugating verbs.

Nothing like a little teaching to get the mind going in the morning and we had a great time covering some basic useful topics like ordering food and instoducing yourself. Today the Spanish lesson took a more practical turn when my lady lost her purse and we went to the supermarket to look for it and then to the Guardia Civil to file a report!

We completed our fitting out of the Mojon Hills apartment, which has been transformed from an empty shell to a stylish rental. Some heavy rain and red dust was a last minute hiccough as we mopped that large terrace several times to keep it presentable until the owners arrived late that night.

They were very happy with the lighting, linens and fiurniture we had ordered and installed. Next week we move on to begin fitting out a villa on the same resort and an apartment on Condado de Alhama.

I have to keep it short this time, out in-house newsletter (sent to all our owners) is due out tomorrow and time is running away with me!
