    Description

    People come to us if they love nature, want to enjoy the peace and quiet, and like dogs. I live here with two dogs and sometimes with my daughter or friends. I enjoy gardening and enjoy discussing many different topics with others.

    I have a large property that requires constant maintenance, which I can no longer manage due to my age. Therefore, I am looking for helpers who can assist me for a few days at a time. The property is located in the Algarve, on a hill with beautiful views in all directions. It is very quiet, as there is only a dirt road leading to us and no through traffic. However, the small town at the foot of the hill has a train station that offers connections in all directions.

    =======
    Allerdings hat der kleine Ort am Fuße des Hügels einen Bahnhof, der Verbindungen in alle Richtungen anbietet.
    Zu uns kommt man, wenn man die Natur liebt, die Ruhe genießen möchte und Hunde mag.
    Ich lebe hier nämlich mit zwei Hunden und zeitweise mit meiner Tochter oder Freunden. Ich mag die Gartenarbeit und tausche mich gerne mit anderen über viele Themen aus.


    Ich habe ein grosses Grundstück, auf dem es immer wieder Pflegearbeiten gibt, die ich aufgrund meines Alters nicht mehr schaffe.
    Deshalb suche ich Hilfskräfte, die mir jeweils für einige Tage helfen können.
    Das Grundstück liegt an der Algarve auf einem Hügel mit wunderschönem Blick in alle Richtungen. Es ist sehr ruhig, da es nur eine Staubstraße zu uns gibt und keinen Durchgangsverkehr.
