We are looking for a fella that knows how to run a power saw to help with fire wood, maybe some building skills aswell.That would be the most needed help at this point. Always other things to do as well like some fencing ect. We run a 160 acer ranch and are finding now we could use a little help. If there is someone intested in the beauty and the quiteness the country lifestyle has to offer maybe our ranch maybe a place they can feel at home. We are very easy going and at most times try and be there for those who need help. Over time we have taken in animals that are homeless. Our 15 year old daughter has a very big heart.

Few years ago I lived in Budapest,but always wanted to move back to countryside to get closer to my dreams.What are my dreams?Simple:a farm where all the animals can live in full respect and harmony with nature. I worked as a volunteer in an asylum for dogs before I moved to Andráspuszta. So this farm has now more than 200 (bio organic) fruit trees,5 dogs,2 cats,30 chickens,but in a few months will increase the number with 2-3 cows,chickens and alpacas.But till than I need to build and renovate safe houses for the animals and a small building for preparing cheese. The area where the farm is a quiet agricultural area near to a village called: Bölcske.Few families live hear in harmony,not more than 20 people

Area: Andalucia

Retired expatriot (Scottish) living in Spain for 11 years. I have a villa and land in the coastal foothills near to Sayalonga, Axarquia. 7km from the coast and 14km from the coastal resort of Nerja. Sevilla and Grenada (the Alhambra) are not far away and there is a very good bus service operating from Torre del Mar, the closest large town. The villa has a wonderful outlook facing West towards Malaga bay, Gibraltar and North Africa. In winter because we face south west we get the max amount of sun available. In high summer I return to the UK to visit friends, relatives and avoid the heat. The land has 20 odd Almond trees, olives, figs, Apricots and other fruit trees. I have a vegetable patch to provide fresh produce as much as possible. I try to be as organic/green/bio as possible. Irrigation is a problem most of the year and cold winds in the winter months.

Area: Pays de la Loire

Hi, we are a couple with our aspirations of living in France slowly coming into view. I am building a timber frame house out in France. Near Alencon, Pays de Loire. There is plenty of land and within walking distance of the village that has a small Epicerie, that stocks virtually all of the everyday essentials, including fresh bread & croissants! I am a Carpenter by trade, although for the last 6 years have been a Home Inspector, carrying out Building Surveys & Energy Performance Certificates. The village is just 3 minutes walk down the road, where there is an Epicerie, Bar, restaurant, garage, schools. About 4 miles away there is a lovely place called St Leonard De Bois, where there is a nautral water spring, a river which I have crossed via the stepping stones. The closest main town is only 5 mins drive and has everything you could need - Boucherie, Boulangerie, banks, restaurants, cafe, Pharmacie. There are numerous places of natural beauty to go and explore, and I often drive to different places to see new things for myself, so there is always the opportunity to explore the area.
