Portugal
Favourited 503 times
I have a small farm house in southern Portugal, located 20km from Faro and the ocean.
The guest house that can sleep up to four and there's a caravan which can sleep two.
There are 2 hectares of rustic land on sloped terrain with lots of old carob trees. I can always use a hand with general maintenance but also would like to start building a swale system this fall and start mulching the trees, plant fruit trees and finish my Geodesic Greenhouse.
There may also be some smaller construction projects around the house that I could use help with should you have any experience in building / eco building / carpentry etc.
Occasional trips to town, gym, markets or the beach can be arranged if you don't travel by van.
I speak English, German and Dutch and basic Portuguese.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

General Maintenance
On premises there are the following amenities for you to use and enjoy: slack line, boccia course, outdoor showers
You are also free to join us on trips to the nearest village and the occasional trip to the beach.
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
I would like to extend our fruit and vegetable garden using permaculture design principles so it would be great if you're familiar with or interested in permaculture . There are also other tasks that I could use help with e.g: building furniture from old wood, shaping a pump track, water retention projects, swimming pond etc.
Daily tasks are pretty flexible depending on what you can and would like to do.
