Description
My name is Carlos and moved to Lavre in Alentejo, interior of Portuga (1h from Lisbon) 5 years ago. I bought and rebuild a house with a garden and fruit trees, and made 2 apartments. I live in the bigger one with my dog Ninja, and every week with my to 2 sons, Mateus and Simão, 10 and 7 years old. Im a tour guide in Moroco, Togo and Benim, and in Portugal doing caiaque and Donkey tours (several days and wild camping). Usually my main need is someone to be here with my dog when im out, in exchange for house. So indicated to someone that want s to chill out, or work in distante (I have fast internet), do some walks and enjoy some days the slow of Alentejo. Cheers!
