Description
We are a portuguese couple that are living from earth activities. I am an achitect and my husband a creative living.
Our propert as 2 hectares and we are renovating two houses and recovering the farm. The propertie is located in the Algarve mountain: Serra de Monchique, in the south slope with a nice sea view.
We make ecological agriculture and gardening.
Our place is in the middle of the nature, but very near to the local small village, a very quiet place.
We tried to live as ecological way as possible, trying to use only natural products and no chemical stuff.
We are living here with 4 dogs, 3 cats, a Kakadoo and 2 chicken.
The ocean is not so far away and we can offer a car to go there for relaxing on the beach or to go for activities like surfing. We sometimes go there for fishing.
The mountains are good for walking in the middle of nowhere.
We have a small and a bigger village about 5-10 km away from our house and some bigger cities around 30 km away.
We like to have here people living close together with us as members of the family, as friends.
