Description
One month ago I arrived on the 40 ha with a ruin in south Alentejo. Everything needs to built up from scratch. So far there is a shower and a toilet. I am working on a shipping container as a tempory home. I need help with land clearing, building, setting up a garden, cooking, getting started with animals, planting trees and much more.
I am Suiss, traveled a lot and finally found my spot on this planet. I speak german and english and a little portuguiese.
After my apprenticeship as fitter and turner I also did a three year long bio-dynamic farming apprenticeship.
On the land is a big dam to swim. Plenty of paths to explore and a hill with great views and amazing sunsets.
I did a lot of wwoofing myself during the years, now trying out the other side by beeing the hoast.
There is a little village within 15 min walking distance, three little shops and two cafés. 10 min by car is the train station in Sao Marcos da Serra.
