  • Description

    Description

    We are Johan and Hanneke originally from the Netherlands (both 35) and we bought a beautiful place in the region of Valencia. We bought it with my (Johan’s) parents, so they can enjoy the sun and the beautiful environment in the winter. We want to make a partially self-sustainable place of it.
    We ourselves don’t have a lot of experience with this way of life.
