Beschreibung
This personal home will eventually turn into a unique guesthouse/retreat for musicians in nature 40 mins outside of Lisbon. Featured on Workaway's Portugal page - and in time of writing - the only place on there that has a 5 star rating on every category.
** The availabilities for receiving Workawayers are for the last week - and the first week - of every month.
The concept is based on flow state, relaxation and inspiration...but ultimately it's about having fun :) Enjoy stunning sunset views overlooking a valley. We have ten garden beds growing organic veggies (no till), and the house itself is super cosy, with underfloor heating that's powered by solar energy. For the moment we host occasional non-profit events/jam sessions, and eventually we'll open up to paying guests. For Workaway, we dedicate one or two weeks at a time when we receive musician volunteers who are confident jammers are interested in helping to build the project - and of course to strum or bang on an instrument for evening jam sessions :) There's a piano, guitars, bass, 2 drum kits, and a studio-quality sound system which all instruments plug into.Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

Arbeit
What's always really appreciated is to have a veggie cook helping to take it in turns to cook meals for everyone. There's always a lot of land maintenance which is usually done with quite heavy machinery, as well as a bit of weeding in the garden. As well as this, we also need help with setting up for a few days before the events (these happen on the first Saturday of every month).

Unterkunft
You'd have your own private room with shared bathroom. In the unlikely event of it being a full house, there's a small chance you might be in the 4-bed dorm. The dorm has solid bed structures that don't move or squeak, and each bed has a privacy curtain.
Was noch ...
A beautiful nature walk through the forest following a stream; there is a beautiful waterfall about an hour's walk; Mata Pequenha is perhaps the cutest village in Portugal, which is a 15 minute drive; Ericeira is a world-famous beach town for surfers and is a 20 minutes away by car; Malveira has a huge market every Thursday that attracts lots of tourists from Lisbon and is one train stop away, or 10 minutes by car. The nearest train station from the house is a 5 minute drive down a steep hill, and the trains usually take 40 minutes to get to the heart of Lisbon.
