Beschreibung
We, an Austrian family with two children, enjoy the simple, decelerated life in the Portuguese Alentejo. The office chairs and regular working hours were exchanged for all sorts of tools and activities that enrich our hearts. We spend most of our time outside, but most of all we have the opportunity to spend it together. We have one dog and three cats.
We own a property on the shoreside of a lake near the village Torrão. It´s a reservoir lake which supplies the rice fields 30km away. Also due to little rain in winter the lake can disappear one season. When full, it gives us the opportunity to swim, kajak or just relax and enjoy nature. Torrão is small but nice, not touristy but rather typical portuguese. More busy in summer than in winter. The next big town Èvora is 40min by car.
Our business plan is to sell olive oil and give courses in handweaving and wildeness/survival skills such as archry, primitive fire making, etc.
For this we are developing our property. We do all our things mainly ourselfs. Besides solar power, running water (cold & hot) and 2 work spaces we can provide a public outdoor kitchen, 1 bathroom with a shower/1 extra bath house with small tub. We can accomodate tents (bring your own) and 2-4 caravans/mobile homes.
We are currently looking for helpers (for two weeks) setting up our FOOD FOREST. Digging swales, planting trees and other plants as well as designing a pathway through it. If you like getting your hands dirty and planting trees you are very welcome!
What is waiting for you?
You can sleep and live in a caravan, have your own bathhouse/toilet and a kitchen where you can prepare your food. Sometimes we also eat together. The lake in front of our land invites you to relax or you can take one of our kayaks to explore the nature nearby.
We are living with nature and don´t follow a strict 9-5 working day. We work depending on the personal kids´needs and the weather, sometimes including weekends while having days off during the week. Nevertheless, a healthy work attitude is just as important to us as good communication.
We are happy to answer all your questions through a phone or video call and see if we match, so make sure you leave your telephone number where we can reach you!
