    Description

    Hello dear Workawayer

    After many years of traveling we have finally found our own piece of paradise in the beautiful mountains of Monchique, 10 mins drive from town.

    We are a family of 4. Me, my husband and our two beautiful kids aged 3.5 and 1.5 years old.

    With 1.3 hectares of land, the property borders 2 streams, running all year.

    We have an old 4 bedroom farmhouse that we will renovate and upgrade and a ruin that we want to rebuild.

    We plan to build a chicken coop, a big vegetable garden and a big lawn and play area for the kids.

    The land also needs to be landscaped and we want to make beautiful gardens all around.

    We would need help with everything and anything around the property to create our dream place.

    Whatever skills you have we can use.
    Landscaping, painting, woodwork, caring for our chickens, gardening, cooking, building, diy or helping with the kids.

    We welcome solo travellers or even families with kids.

    We can offer a room in our house, or even space to park your camper van ✨

    Reach out and we can discuss.

    Much love,
    Alexandra
