  READ THE WHOLE DESCRIPTION.
  
  Hello travelers!
  
  My name is Fernando, I'm 34 years old.
  
  We are starting a small family project up the mountain of Candelaria, in Tenerife surrounded by pines and with amazing views to the mountain , gran canaria and the ocean.
  
  Our plan is tu build some wooden cabins and some space to recieve friends and create a Retreat place and a self suficient space..
  
  For now we can offer housing and basics of food such as rice, lentils, fruits, etc.
  
  I am a surf instructor myself so If you want to learn or discover the local spots I can give you a hand with it as well as can introduce you to capoeira.
  
  The place is 20' away from the beach and Candelaria by car and there is nothing but nature around. So for now we only take people with a car unless you really enjoy being away.
  
  We Have WIFI now*
  
  No smoking in the place.
