    Description

    We are a couple in the early stages of an eco project, where we are focusing on permaculture principles. We are living very basic in a rural setting. We are in this place almost 2 years now and we are ready to invite people to stay with us, by being in our house or staying in our van.
    We just collected lots of materials and are prepared for the start of building a tool shed and outside kitchen. We would like to build as much as we can with recycled and natural materials, but some project will be done with cement and more conventional building materials.

    Our goal here is to live a simpler life and enjoy a more pure lifestyle and eventually develop an Eco community with like minded people living as self sustainable as possible with as little as possible.

    We would be open to invite a man or a couple to help us with this projects. In exchange for 5h of work on weekdays we would provide a place to crash and a meal a day.

    When we search for a farmsit experience we would open up our house to you and we would need watering the garden, feed the dogs, chickens and quails every day. The dogs need company aswell.

    AT THE MOMENT We are searching for somebody or a couple to come in middle of may(soon as possible actually) to help with small chores around and to get to know the farm as we would be going for a short trip(10days-2week) from end of may. Then we would open up our house for you to stay in and we would need you to water the garden and feed the animals. Before we go you would be staying in a van or in the container, howerer we figure it out between each other and whatever is easier and more comfortable for you.

    Please write only if you are available at least from 15 May to 10 of June(there is a bit of space to play on the dates but it need to be atleast 2 weeks).

    We are not looking any form of unfair commitment. A fair and logical arrangement can be agreed upon, and when you are looking to get away there is a bus stop minutes away and both highway and beach within 5 kms. 30 minutes from El Medano and the same to Santa Cruz "big city".
