Description
Hello dear ones,
We are Kiki (22) and Mo (37). Together with our three cats Eugen, Mira and Frieda and Kikis dog Lausi, we are living a simple life on a small finca on the edge of the natural park dels Ports.
Mo , who is actually a photographer, is now more of an olive farmer and Kiki, a communication psychologist, you'll find most of the time crafting or working in the garden.
We were traveling for several years before we found each other and this wonderful place, and now we just want to grow old and happy here ;)
There are about 500 olive trees, almond trees, carob trees, fruit trees, endless rosemary and thyme bushes on 2,5h here. The landscape here is incredibly beautiful and quiet, there are hardly any neighbours and sometimes you don't see a person for days.
The mountains start right at the house and the sea is about 45 minutes away.
The nearest town (Tortosa) is about 20 minutes away and Barcelona is about 2 hours away.
In the past, with the help of friends and workawayers, we have already cut and trimmed most of the overgrown trees, rebuilt some retaining walls and painted the house. We built two composting toilets and two outdoor panoramic showers, you won't want to shower anywhere else.... :)
In the last few years we have planted some beds and we enjoy the vegetables, this year we want to try some more, change things and apply first lessons learned, because the wind here and the summer heat are a real challenge.
From October the olive trees are pruned and the terraces are cut free, and a little later follows the olive harvest.
Please note that the finca is a naturism friendly place. Those who want to are naked. Those who don't want to are not naked. We are not naked all day or every day and we don't ask you to be, don't worry. If you have any questions about this topic, bring it on! :)
We have chosen a place far from the hustle and bustle, but we still like to have lovely people with whom we share our time, the evenings can be longer, but of course we take into account the needs of our guests. Please write the word "Covalta" in your request so that we know you have read this text.

UN sustainability goals this host is trying to achieve
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You can learn a lot about the cultivation and harvesting of olives and other plants found here (e.g. figs and almonds).
We would be happy to show you the medieval town of Tortosa and other historical places.
For other activities:
You can hike into the nature reserve (with springs, waterfalls and nature pools) directly from the house. We recommend a hike to Caramella or can help you discover the secrets of Covalta.
Help
A future project is the planned bread oven, if you have experience please let us know!
In general, there are always trees to cut free, prunings to burn (from about November to about March), terraces to mow, dry stone walls to build, vegetable beds to weed and nature to tame a little :)
We are happy to have independent and experimental help in the vegetable garden.
Upcoming construction projects are mainly the design of guest and community places so that everyone has enough space to organize their day individually.

Accommodation
We offer a small, beautifully built guest house with wood-burning stove, a sleeping gallery and cozy seating. On the sleeping gallery is a double bed, but there is also room for folding mattresses or sleeping mats, so if you want more people could be accommodated.
The dry toilet is close by, the panoramic shower is not far away, if you prefer warm water in the colder season you can of course take a warm shower in our house.
Additionally there is a guest bed on a sleeping gallery in the dining room.
If you come by van, we have some nice pitches with a view of the nature park.
There is a kitchen in the guest house, you can use it or we can eat and cook together in our house - in either case we would like to be very mindful of our facilities 😊
We have decided to provide only the accommodation and want to ask our guests to participate in the food shopping. In return we expect a reduced working time of only 2h a day.
For larger projects that require more work time, we can make other individual arrangements. Don't be shy, just tell us what you need, want and offer!
What else ...
Travel distances/times:
Tortosa (historical town centre, old castle, and the river Ebro) 20 minutes (by car or scooter)
Barcelona (2 hours, by train)

The sea with many different spectacular beaches is 45 minutes away.

Hannah was with me for a two weeks in February, she is a very nice, funny person with whom you can talk about everything. It was great to have her here, she helped me a lot with clearing the garden and the trees, she also cooked a lot and took care of the household. I'm already looking forward to the next time :)

Mo, thank you for hosting me for 5 days:D! I loved walking to the waterfalls, the views and all the yummy food we cooked (i ate so much in the evenings). The days went by quickly and every day had something special to it. If you aren’t sure about going to the finca, go for it because it’s such a magical place 💜🌞
