Description
Hi! I'm a single dad from the Netherlands living with my two wonderful kids, Kiki (11) and Sam (9) and two dogs on a magical slice of natural paradise near Aljezur. Our place is tucked deep in nature, surrounded with natural springs, pools and a beautiful flowing stream. We've planted over 100 different variety of fruit trees and are totally off-grid.
After traveling to 50+ countries, I’ve settled here to build my own little Garden of Eden — a safe haven for people and animals where nature can thrive and we can live in full harmony. I love creating a lifestyle that’s grounded, joyful, and as low-impact on the environment as possible where all creatures can co-exist with each other.
I'm looking for skilled labourers and child-friendly folks who have a passion for gardening and living back to basic, love nature and have experience with building, mechanics or cultivating and preparing their our own food and willing to help me with the kids, dogs and other general tasks on the property. If you're hands-on, open-hearted, and love living close to nature — we'd love to welcome you into our world!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We love connecting with open-hearted, spiritual beings who enjoy meaningful conversations about life, nature, and shared experiences. Life here is all about learning from each other — through food, laughter, creativity, and presence. My well-traveled path and the kids’ natural curiosity make every exchange rich and inspiring. Come as you are, be as you want and leave with joy.
