    Hello! I am a Belgian widow, lived many years in Bali and Portugal , now living on an 10000m2 organic farm in the Algarve with lots of fruit trees,etc.
    I try to do as much of the work as possible myself but sometimes I need a hand with some of the bigger work. You will have your private bungalow with bathroom and kitchenette. Will provide you delicious organic food ( had my own restaurant )
