    Description

    hello, i´m javier.
    I live actually alone in a pretty small village in extremadura spain, I keep chickens and grow vegetables.
    I´m making up my vegetable garden. Is an old one with the walls needing to be rebuilt.
    there is of course lots of other work I need help with, but we're not in a hurry.
    :-)
    If you think this is a good place to stay for a while, that would be fine.
    i'm from the 70, i don't smoke, i speak a little french, some english and spanish;-)


    hola, soy javier.
    vivo actualmente solo en un pueblo pequeño y bonito en extremadura, españa, con algunas gallinas y verduras.
    estoy arreglando el huerto. Es un huerto tradicional con los bancales en mal estado y necesitan arreglo.
    también me ocupo en muchas otras cosas.
    si piensas que éste es un buen sitio para estar un tiempo, estupendo.
    soy del 70, dejé de fumar, hablo un poco de francés y algo más de inglés y español, por supuesto.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    this is what i used to say:

    i´m ¿trying? to live without buying: my hens, mi vegetables, the end of the market and... recycling
    Don´t worry, i buy something.
    i don´t have car and i move my self with bike or public service.

    the relationship with the local people are very direct but friendly.
    ----
    now i'm a little more "light" in my eco way.

    solía decir:

    Intento vivir sin comprar: gallinas, huerto, el final del mercado... y el vertedero del pueblo.
    Pero compro algunas cosas;-)
    no tengo coche y me muevo en bici o sp.

    las relaciones con los vecinos son muy directas pero amistosas.
    ----
    ahora he "relajado" mi perfil eco.
