Description
Hi !
My name is Olivia, I'm living in the South West of Portugal, in Vila Nova de Milfontes.
I'm a French woman, pro athlete of «foiling», the surf board that fly above the water.
I'm passionate by nature and travels. I choose a simple way of life, my home is located a few hundred meters from the National Park of the Rota Vincentina, in South West coast of Portugal.
I live with my three dogs, Layka, Leo and Patate.
Layka is a female Belgian shepered malinois.
Leo is a male Tchec wolf-dog.
Patate is a male Refeiro Alentejano, the local breed of Alentejo.
I also have ducks and chickens. I'm a big fan of animals and love to take care of them.
I also love gardening and planting trees. I've been interested and inspired by the permaculture and the syntropic agriculture concepts.
In the process of reducing our impact on the environment, we use dry toilets and natural septic tank that filters grey water through plants.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre
