  Beschreibung

  Hey hello, My name is Margon, I am Dutch and I live in Central Portugal. In 2024 I purchased a plot of land of 1 hectare near a small village, called Abrunhosa-a-Velha, in between Gouveia and Mangualde.
  
  I fell in love with this piece of land, mainly because of the view. I have great views over the Mondego valley, all the way to the Serra de Estrela mountains behind Gouveia town. I also like the land, because it is in de middle of nature and it is very quiet here. I live off-grid on the land, in my camper van. I have build an outdoor toilet and I get my electricity from a solar panel on my roof. I am planning to buy more solar panels to put on my land, but I am not that far yet.
  
  At the moment I am still clearing the land. I want to get rid of all the broom bushes and the brambles. I already started to plant some fruit trees and I want to make a vegetable garden. I would like to transform my land into a little paradise with many flowers and cute seating areas in shady places.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  The two villages where I live in between are quite small. It is nice to make stroll and speak some Portuguese with the local people. One village has a café with a mini-market and a post office.
  
  Living on my land can be a challenge, because I live off-grid. And it can also be an amazing adventure, being in the middle of nature, with singing birds all over the place.

  Unterkunft

  I don't have a house on the land. I live in a camper myself.
  
  I prefer someone who is traveling around with his/her own camper. You are most welcome to park your camper on my land.
  
  I can offer a tent for someone, who doesn't have a camper van. I would recommend that you come with your own vehicle, because the closest supermarket is 8 kilometers away.

  I live near the Serra da Estrela, which is a nice place to visit. You can drive towards the Torre (the highest peak of Portugal) or make a walk near Vale de Rossim. There are many river beaches to go to for a swim in summer.
  
  Gouveia and Mangualde are two towns where you can find bigger supermarkets, post offices, farmácias and pastelarias. In Chas de Tavares you will find a smaller supermarket and a laundry machine.
  
  I live nearby a train station called Gouveia gare. Trains drive between Guarda and Santa Comba Dao.
