Beschreibung
Hi,
We are Mika and Mario.
We live in central Portugal in a small village with a great view over the mountains.
We have a number of tasks we want done such as walls indoor and outdoors, making a canopy over our terrace and of course a lot of work to be done on our land growing vegitables.
Mika is born and raised in Brabant, south of the Netherlands. Mika is an artist and has her studio in Pombal where she works and teaches.
Mario is Portuguese but has lived in the Netherlands half his life. His family lives around here.
And like a good tradition, a Portuguese family needs lots of good food and drink to get through the working day!
Mario is a motorbike mechanic and organizes tours (on- and off-road).
Mika also drives motorbikes and in our spare time, we ride motorbikes as much and as often as possible.
The mountains here are amazing and traffic is almost non-existent. Walhala for motorcyclists, then ;-)
Furthermore, we have 3 cats. They are super sweet and give a homely atmosphere.
Anyway. We are living our dream here. Unfortunately, we have too much work to do which we cannot manage alone. (getting older ;-) ) So through this way, we hope to share our dream with people who would like to help us.

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
We are members of a folk dance group here in the village and also members of the motorbike club.
There are many festivals in the area especially in the summer months.
Dancing, music, food and drinks.....every weekend there is something to experience and do.
We always like to take our guests, friends, family there.
We also enjoy the surroundings a lot. Hiking, cycling, fishing....oja and Mario is a master at BBQ.
In short, the simple Portuguese life in the countryside. That's what we love and love to share
Arbeit
We could use help with:
* cultivate land and grow vegetables / strimming weeds
* painting walls indoor and outdoors
* Harvesting grapes and olives (in September and October)
* reorganizing our attic
* cleaning terraces with a high-pressure sprayer
* cooking
We do all these tasks ourselves, so you will then assist us in doing so.
And it would be great, though, if you already have more experience with tasks like remodelling help

We have 2 guest rooms with a shared shower in a separate house at our place where we live.
At the time we don't have guests.
The B&B will not be part of your work.
There is a bedroom in our private house where you can sleep if we have guest in our B&B.
If you come by camper, there is a place near our house where you could park your camper there.
Food: we will cook and eat together. Breakfast, lunch and diner Al that is extra is for your own cost.
Place to sleep is also included.
Was noch ...
We don't work on Sundays. Then we are often out riding our motorbikes ourselves (or sometimes Mika is at a local art market).
You could go out with us then. Motorbike riding yourself is also possible, we have several motorbikes.
There are several cities in the area where you can soak up culture.
We are 30 minutes from Tomar, 40 minutes from Coimbra and 40 minutes from Pombal.
Portugal's highest mountain is a 2 hour drive from us and the beach is less than 1 hour away.
Public transport is a bit trickier. There are some buses. But not many.
Taxis don't cost that much and are quite manageable.
We also have a couple of mountain bikes and an electric bike. You can borrow those.
