Description
Hello ! We are 2 frenchies (49 & 51) installed in Mallorca since 2 years. We have an old farm to rehabilitate (working with clay, lime, wood and stones) and a big bio-ecological garden to create (in order to be self-sufficient, and later to sell our overproduction). Our project is to develop an ecofriendly place.
We live for the moment in our trailer, we have a 17 years old girl with us sometimes, and our best friend (55, french) is often helping us.
We are real frenchies : we like to share good food, good drink, good speeches with good mood and good people !!!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Discover authentic Mallorca from our place is really easy, we live in the center of the island, near the Sierra de Tramuntana (famous place of hiking) and at 30mn (driving) to the different beaches (South/Palma and North/Alcudia). We also could indicate beautifull places to see, and very good and original eating places... We will be pleased to share our experience and knowledge of this island and its traditions.
Help
We need help for building (installing roof, doors, windows...) plaster/coating and for the garden (crop irrigation to create, planting, cleaning...) We also need help to prepare meals to share together - for 4 to 8 helpers ;-)

Accommodation
We have a trailer, and a shared "studio" wich contains the kitchen, and the shower. There is dry toilets and also old toilets (to feed with water from the well) When the weather start to be nice, we have an outdoor shower under an old almond tree (and under the stars by night)
You can come with your own tent or choose to sleep in the house (without windows nor doors !!) in a kind of dormitory -with real matresses- a kind of "farm glamping".
We will do our best to make you feel good and comfortable, but for the moment we live as Robinson, or as in a farm camping !!!
What else ...
We live in a very nice countryside area, with almond trees, fig trees and orange trees and we are near from the town of Inca. 10mn walking to a big bus station and 25mn walking to the train station. We have 3 bicycles to share.
We can pick you up from the airport to our estate (and back).
