Description
Hi, we are Tom and Cami, and we live on a 3 hectare Quinta close by to the village of Benfeita.
We have been here nearly 4 years after spending a few travelling around volunteering using this site.
We are in the process of rebuilding our Quinta back to a fully working homestead. We have just moved into a strawbale house that we have built (not yet finished) and are hoping to welcome people to help us carry on this process.
We have two other ruins that we would like to rebuild, and a garden that we would like to enlarge.
