  Beschreibung

  I am Sophia, half Dutch and half Moroccan and looking to make something out of this beautiful farm land in Bouznika! In between Casablanca and the modern capital Rabat, we are situated 7km from the beach, right next to the forest and town. This sweet plot of land is ready for a makeover and many funky projects. It's a super peaceful place with stunning sunset views from our roof terrace. I live here with my father and grandmother and we do different chores every day to make the place run smoothly.
  
  We currently have around 20 free roaming rabbits and chickens, 2 peafowl, 3 dogs (Otto, Luke and Lady), turtles, and tropical bird aviary. We have a mini banana plantation, olive trees, and fruit trees. The projects we have include building a lake fit for swimming, raising goats for milk, and a big vegetable garden. We will need help with all of these projects and more!
  People who enjoy working outside with their hands, gardening, building, taking care of animals and bringing new ideas are all welcome!
  
  There is a lot of French being spoken in the house with family members so speaking French is a big plus. However, I am always happy to translate, and you can use the opportunity to improve/learn French.
  
  It is expected to help out around the house to keep it clutter free, tidying up after meals and cleaning up after yourselves which is excluded from the 4 hours.
  
  We have many ideas and will need lots of help to make (y)our dreams a reality.
  
  NOTE: There is construction and renovation going on at the farm at the moment so there are people coming in and out.

  Meine Tiere/Haustiere

  Luke

  Luke is an energetic malinois. Very agile and a little stubborn, he's the only one that checks on me when I walk him

  Otto

  Otto is a very loyal street dog who followed us home one day. We decided to keep him and he has made it worth it. A great guard dog when needed and very friendly. He likes to jump (sometimes with all feet off the ground!)
