    Hello everyone!
    We are a Canadian Portuguese family living in the Obidos area. We have had such a wonderful time with our Workaway experience.
    Our home is located 15 mins drive to Obidos castle and 20 mins drive from the beach. We are located in the country and our home is renovated and quite spacious. 3 acres of fruit trees, huge vegetable garden, lots of hiking trails. We are a 30 min drive from Nazare the world famous surfing spot! Several delicious restaurants close by. There is a main transit close by (10 min drive to the train or bus) Also there is a local bus that comes right to the end of our street (2mins walk)

    We do not discriminate on age however you must be mature minded and self sufficient. Previous work experience is mandatory. We require references from past jobs or Workaway feedback.”
