    Description

    I am Isabel a rare and true Algarvian. I live in my old typical country home in the farmland nested between the historical city of Silves (5km away) and the urban hub of the south coast Portimão.
    Surrounded by orange groves and a pristine ecological waterway that flows into the sea near Portimão beach (11km away).

    I am a easy going and open mind person. I love to travel the world and host people.

    I always need help with gardening, general house maintenance, cooking, DIY, and some other tasks.

    All volunteers stay in private rooms and you have your private outdoor kitchen to cook for yourself. We do not cook for you but we come shopping with you to select basics for you to cook with, mainly vegetarian please.

    I ask for 5 hours a day, 5 days a week.

    You are welcome!
