    Hello Workawayers =)

    I have a little studio with garden in the middle of a nature reserve(where i also live) which i started renovating this year.

    I have done a lot already and now i have a few jobs i need to finish where i need help.

    I have a regular job in chinese medicine and am currently finishing a master in Phytotherapy and have limites time. (Weekends mostly or one or another day during the week).
    So work would be done mainly on 2 days a week only in exchange for a place to stay and be able to explore the area. Depending on the amount of help and agreement i can give a little extra for help for food.

    The place i live is also on site. Although we are in the middle of nature in the Algarve, the next villages are 3.5km away and the next city (Lagos) is 14km away with bus connections.
