  Beschreibung

  Hello, fellow adventurers! Greentings from our warm and welcoming little farm house, located near Santa Cruz on the beautiful island of Madeira. We are Tom, Steff and Eli living together with our dog Murphy, our two Cats and three Chickens!
  
  We live uphill surrounded by nature and are therefore blessed with beautiful ocean views and sunrises. We embrace a lifestyle that emphasizes sustainability, community, and a connection to the environment. We enjoy sharing our space and exchanging personal experiences and views of various topics.
  
  We will be gladly sharing our space with you but we encourage you to feel free during your stay with us. We are eager to explore, learn and contribute to a cultural exchange and a create feeling of home.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Our goal is to create a mutually beneficial environment where travelers feel a sense of belonging and contribute to the vibrancy of our home. The cultural exchange goes beyond the tasks listed, providing an opportunity for personal growth, skill development, and the forging of connections that last a lifetime. We look forward to sharing our home, learning from each other, and creating a positive and enriching experience for everyone involved.
  
  Madeira is rich in nature and we'd be delighted to share our favorite local spots with you. Whether it's hiking trails, cultural events, or discovering hidden spots to snorkel in the area, we believe in making the most of every moment.

  Arbeit

  We are seeking open-minded and curious individuals to join us in various tasks around our home. We encourage a collaborative environment where everyone's unique skills and ideas are appreciated.
  
  Tasks could include tending to our garden—whether it's weeding, pruning trees, maintaining the landscape, or simply helping keep things organized. Moreover, we appreciate tasks in the house such as dusting, cooking (you could use our selfgrown veggies), laundry, dishes etc. Furthermore, we could use some help with our animals for example feeding the chickens, go on walks with Muphy or brushing the cats. Eli, an energetic and curious 11-year-old, is looking forward to spending time together. Engaging in shared activities, DIY-projects, and quality time will not only be appreciated but also contribute to her learning and growth. If you have any special interests or skills you'd like to share, we are all open to hearing about them.

  Unterkunft

  We are pleased to offer a cozy and private accommodation for our Workawayers. Next to our main house, there is a small cottage with bathroom where you'll have your own space.
  
  Currently, Tom's office is situated in the entryway of the cottage. However, he uses it occasionally and is more than willing to coordinate with you regarding its use. We prioritize open communication, and your comfort is important to us.
  
  In addition, to your private sleeping space, you are welcome to share common spaces in our main house, which is more in a quieter remote location. In that way, we foster a sense of community and providing opportunities for social interactions in the shared areas. We believe that a comfortable and welcoming living space is key to a positive Workaway experience, and we're committed to ensuring you feel at home during your stay with us.

  Was noch ...

  If there are two of you planning to come, we have enough space for both of you if you are fine with sharing the small cottage and a cozy big bed.
  
  On your days off you can either go for trips on your own or we can plan some fun activities together. We have two cars which you could possibly use if you feel comfortable in driving in narrow and steep roads. Otherwise we are happy to give you a lift.
  
  It's worth mentioning that the house is a little remote, we are not in Santa Cruz town itself, and although there are at least three buses that pass nearby to the house each day, getting to and from the main city of Funchal can take some time, so if you wanted to be in the city alot it's not ideal.
