Help
Since two month we are living in our new Taipa House, which is inside finished and in the coming weeks we are planning to plaster the outside walls with an very nice natural ecologic Lime Plaster.
We will do all kind of work around that house.
For example: plastering the outside walls, making stone walls in the surrounding of the house, designing and creating the Gray-Water-Systhem and many more tasks.
We prefer if people come for longer (2 weeks +), in order to get to know each other better.
