    Description

    I live in Portugal with my son Safi (16) and 2 cats.
    After traveling arrowed looking for the right place for us we found a little beautiful land in Espinhal. We have some olives and fruit trees, a nice open view, it's 10 min walk from the village center and 2 min from a beautiful stream and a nice park. It is quiet here (most of the time) and peaceful.
    We just moved from our mobile home to the stone house that we renovated. There is another building that will be a studio which I renovate this days.
    My 2 elder children come from time to time and give Circus and Dance workshops.

    We are vegetarians, we don’t smoke or drink and we look for people who do the same.

    I come from Israel, I traveled in other countries, my heart and mind are open.
    I raised 3 strong and amassing children with natural medicine and good nutrition and I can give a lot of guidance in that areas.
    There is a nice building on the land that I want to turn to a studio that will be a meeting place for meditation, yoga, circus classes dance and more.
    I have been practicing meditation for many years and would be happy to sit with anyone who wants to.
