Description
Ola! My name is Rona, 42, from Israel. I've been living in Portugal for the past 4.5 years, and just bought my dream land in Central Portugal about a year ago. I'm a medicine woman and was led to this lifestyle of nature, self sustainability, DIY and off grid living by my own healing journey. My vision is to share this place with other likeminded people that are in a pursuit of freedom, self healing and self sustainability, creating space for art, music, alternative healing and anything that can better our exitance on this earth. The land is about 2 Hectares in size. has a big garden area, a stream running through it, many fruit trees. different constructions for dwelling and raising animals that need love and attention. I'm working on creating more living and gathering spaces, to allow people to stay short and long term, to go through their own healing journey and have space to express themselves with their work and creativity.
The farm is located in a gorgeous part of Central Portugal, with lots of beautiful hiking and swimming areas and a lively alternative community offering different kinds of therapies, art, music and other alternative living activities.
Nearby towns: Oliviera do Hospital, Tabua.
Bigger cities (about an hour away): Viseu, Coimbra.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
This area of Central Portugal is abundant with beautiful lush nature. you can enjoy many amazing hiking and swimming areas. The alternative community of this area has a lot to offer in the way of art, music, dance, free markets, workshops on many different topics, alternative healing, and many other types of gatherings such as ecstatic dance, sweat lodge, yoga lessons, sound healing and much more. As a medicine woman I can also share my experience and knowledge and provide a safe space for going through a healing process.
Help
Main projects that we'll be doing together:

Accommodation
I have a beautiful big caravan that can fit up to 2.5 people
Two big bell tents for up to 2 people each
ACCOMODATION WILL BE ACCORDING TO AVAILABILITY
Outdoor dry toilet
Outdoor shower
Outdoor kitchen
What else ...
The land is in walking distance from a small village where you can find a Cafe, a restaurant, and a small shop. Transportation can be a bit tricky in this area without a car, so this would definitely be more suited for people that enjoy spending quite time in nature and can keep themselves busy in their free time (or have their own car! :).
I will, however, be very happy to show you around and go hiking, swimming and to social gatherings and activities, when it suits us both.
Meals will not be provided regularly. I can help with shopping once a week, and would love to share some meals together when it suits us all. There's a nice outdoor kitchen with everything you need for cooking, and of course, everything we grow on the land can be shared and used.
