Description
ENGLISH
We are a family of 4, Felipe (38 from Brazil), Carmen (38 from Spain), Lucas 8 years and Tilo 2 months.
We love to travel, to undertake projects, to meet people, to flow with life with acceptance and harmony.
With the arrival of the baby we decided to live in the countryside to experience a simpler life in nature. Our intention is to create a familar space where we practice values of Permaculture, collaborative economy and alternative education.
Since 4 years we bought a land in Arbolí, a small town in Tarragona province, between the famous wine-growing area of the Priorat, Prades mountains and Montsant Park. We are on a sunny hill with terraces in a valley where a stream descends where we enjoy cool mountain baths and observe wild animals of the area. It is a privileged place for climbers and hikers, with many paths and trails like the GR7 that passes in front of our house.
Arbolí is 15min by car and 40min by a pleasant walk. The near village Cornudella del Montsant is 15min by car, where we find all services, supermarket, bakery, pharmacy, medical center, bus stop ... in 30 min is Siurana, a picturesque village that preserves its medieval origins and has a breathtaking situation. There is a swamp where we enjoy bathing with children, kayak trips, picnics, etc ...

Nos encanta viajar, emprender proyectos, conocer gente, fluyendo con la vida con aceptación y armonía.
Con la llegada del bebe hemos decidido ir vivir al campo para poder experimentar una vida mas simple en la naturaleza. Nuestra intención es crear un espacio familiar donde praticamos valores de Permacultura, economía colaborativa y educación alternativa.
Hace 4 años que tenemos un terreno en Arbolí, un pueblito de la provincia de Tarragona entre la famosa zona vinícola del priorat, las montañas de Prades y el Parque del Montsant. Estamos en una colina ensolarada con terrazas en un valle donde baja un riachuelo donde disfrutamos de baños fresco de montaña y observamos animales salvajes de la zona. Es un lugar privilejiado para escaladores y excursionistas, con muchas vías y senderos como el GR7 que pasa delante de nuestra casa.
Arbolí está a 15min en coche y 40min en una agradable caminata. El pueblo cercano Cornudella del montsant esta a 15min en coche, donde encontramos todos los servicios, supermercado, panadería, farmacia, centro medico, parada de autobus... a 30min esta Siurana un pueblo pitoresco que conserva sus origenes medievales y tiene una situación de quitar el aliento. Hay un pántano donde disfrutamos de baños con los niños, salidas en kayak, picnics, etc...
