Descripción
This is a piece of paradise, a big space within the Natural Park of the Costa Vicentina. We have had the honor of being the guardians of this land for ten years, dedicating ourselves to rewilding and reforesting as part of our effort to help it thrive. We are a family: Diogo and João, my son, shares this journey with me. We normally live with a small group of friends/volunteers in a sort of temporary community. We are very laid-back, hardworking, and enjoy a simple life in nature and good vegetarian food!
