  --- January until April
  =============
  Hello, My name is Lea , I am an Israeli/Portuguese national but have been traveling most of my adult life and lived in many places around the globe, during all those years of traveling I met amazing people that opened their houses and hearts to me and it is a privilege to be in the position of a host and facilitate this experience for others.
  I am a freelance mother with to 2 amazing kids, Yemaya my 16 years old teenage daughter, and Rei my 10 years old son, we live in a beautiful house surrounded by nature in the southwest of Portugal only a 10min drive to the beach and the cities of Lagos and Portimao.
  We are a multilingual and multicultural family, the kids understand Hebrew and some Portuguese but we mostly speak English and my kids are not identified by nationality as we have been living in international communities all of their life and they attend alternative international schools.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Although we will not be present during this time, travellers can benefit from the calm and mild winter environment of southern Portugal. Staying here offers space to slow down, connect with nature, and experience a simple and independent way of living surrounded by land and animals.
  
  The area has an active local and international community, with opportunities for yoga, singing circles, and other gatherings. We are happy to help with connections and recommendations. This exchange suits people who enjoy autonomy, balance, and a relaxed rhythm while remaining socially connected if they wish.

  Arbeit

  We are looking for a caring and responsible person to help with pet sitting during the winter months while we travel to visit family for a few months.
  
  The main responsibility is daily feeding and general care of our animals. We have a lovely female dog, Nel, a Border Collie mix who is very affectionate, gentle, and used to roaming freely around the land. We also have a one-year-old cat, Maizee, who enjoys the company of dogs and is well adapted to living alongside them.
  
  You are welcome to come with your own pet, as long as all animals can get along calmly and respectfully.
  
  In addition to pet care, we may occasionally ask for light maintenance tasks around the house if needed. Nothing demanding, just general care and attention to the space.
  
  We live in a quiet Quinta, surrounded by nature and fruit trees, yet only a 15-minute drive from Portimão, Lagos, and the amazing beaches of the Algarve. This opportunity is best suited for someone reliable, independent, and comfortable with animals, who appreciates tranquility, nature, and a slower winter rhythm.

  Unterkunft

  The accommodation will be in a separate studio apartment located in our garden. It is equipped with its own kitchen, workspace, a double bed, and a sofa. I usually use this space as my workspace for workshops and treatments, and you can think of it as a small personal temple. It is cozy, calm, and aesthetically cared for, and you will have full privacy.
  
  In addition, there is a larger shared kitchen located near the swimming pool, which is also available for your use. It includes an oven and large refrigerators. In this area, you will also find hot showers and toilets.
  
  Our main house will be rented out while we are away, so you will be sharing the land with other people. Each living area is separate, allowing everyone to have their own space and privacy.

  Was noch ...

  the house stand by itself but there is a little village café in a walking distance, there is a bus stop near by to the closest cities of Lagos and Portimao , tourist from around the world are coming here to cycle around as the roads are flat and the country view is beautiful, we are only 7 km from the south coast of Portugal , and if you like to learn how to surf there are many surf schools around and places to rent equipment.
  We are 11km from a big lake with nature trails around it and you could also track on the Costa Vicenta trail that will take you on the coast line of the tip of Europe.
