    I have several on-going projects on four acres of land, in a beautiful setting near the town of Moncarapacho, Algarve. The land lays in the Southern shadow of a small mountain Monte San Miguel and catches the sun from the South all day which makes for a beautiful sunset to the West.known for the good quality air, local markets and the best beaches within fifteen minutes drive.And 360 degree panoramic views,,,,Paradise .0)

    The land is very fertile and has many trees olive, almond, pomegranate,banana, carob, tangerine, fig and orange trees already mature but some needing attention.
    I have also just planted over 30 new exotic tree and shrubs.

    If work away have their own accommodation,that's cool, we do have water and electric on the land. Meals are provided. Because of the high temperatures in the summer. we usually start work around 7-9pm so that we can make the most of the cooler morning hours.

    I have a car for transport and many hand and power tools to help.

    Music is my passion i've been playing percussion and drums for more than twenty years.I have also been producing and writing music for five years.

    I have built my own ECO music and recording studio...from straw bales and clay.


    look forward to hearing from you.

    Blessings,

    Douglas
