Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Sagres is a small surfing villa, in the end of the world. travellers would experience living this peaceful easy life and live the summer dream. I have a SurfShop , so surf gear can be arranged
Help
This help includes mostly dog sitting - feeding three cute big dogs, walk them, just giving them Attention when I’m out of the house. Walking them twice a day , but basically just be home chilling with them so they don’t bother the guests , since we live in my guesthouse . One of the dogs is a 12 month old, super energetic puppy....
this position is ideal either for a strong male, since the dogs can be strong and pull at times, plus its 3 , works better with someone with a lot of experience handling dogs.

English: Fluent
Accommodation
private room with a single bed. . complete use of the rest of the house.
What else ...
On your time off, you can either chill in the hammock alone on our terrace , go to the beach which is 10 mnts walking to the closest one , or go surfing in one of the many many beaches around the area. I advice having or renting a car if you want to explore areas outside Sagres . Public transportation here is almost non existent . Lots of amazing cliffs to walk around , amazing places to hike , the possibilities are endless .
