    Hello beautiful people of the world! We are a small Portuguese-Russian family with a 8 year old child. We are artists, musicians, builders and gardeners doing our best to live a simple but meaningful life by creating a small piece of paradise where we can connect with nature and ourselves by living a more sustainable, resilient and conscious lifestyle. We feel that having a direct connection to our needs directly impacts our quality of life. Build our homes, grow our food, develop our skills and our ability to connect with others, and spread love and positive energy. In short to put in practice and show an example of the vision we have for life in harmony with Mother Earth.

    We are blessed to be the guardians of a beautiful big piece of land in one of the wildest areas in Portugal. Half of our land is made of a wild forest of Oak, Medronho, Pine, and Eucalyptus. In our valley, we have a great potential for agriculture and an abundance of water. We take inspiration from the principles and techniques of Permaculture together with the century-old traditional local wisdom and do our best to help the land and nature regenerate and heal from many years of harmful agricultural practices. We share the land with three other friends and our volunteers, a flock of chickens, four sweet dogs, and a cat. We have many fruit trees, and in the season we pick our olives for oil and pick and process our medronho to make the famous medicine :)

    The area where we live is full of natural beauty, In our land we are lucky to have our own spring and place to swim, as well as beautiful forest walks. There is also a big lake and a village less than 5 min away. We are 15 min away (by car) from Pego das Pias, a beautiful forest canyon and lake. The amazing atlantic coast with its wild beaches and surfing is only 40 min away. In the area around we are part of a growing community of alternative sustainable projects and many cultural and social activities are available weekly in the villages around (yoga, capoeira, football, ultimate frisbee, theater, music jams and more).
    We have an old car that people can use for their trip to the beach or to a local market.
