Description
I do get a lot of requests the moment my profile goes online. I have a room free after the 7th of December and availability to host until February. Please read my profile and see if you are a fit.
I am Kirsten, 32 years old, no kids. I bought a house and I am reconstructing it. It's at my favourite piece of the world (so far). I have enjoyed travelling a lot before, and sometimes do still. However, now I got this house, which gives me big projects on hands. I work remote and outside my day job for a wine app, I try to finish all the things going on in the house. I am flexible and open for ideas and alternations according to your needs in this stay. Furthermore, I hope someone wants to come stay with me and help me finish the work around the property.
In this house, I like to live as if you are part of the family. Most of my workawayers turned out to be great friends, and I am delighted that many of them returned several times.Types of help and learning opportunities

I am Dutch, but I am fluent in German English and Portuguese. My house is situated close to plenty of surfing beaches, and we have a large van community close by. Our village is build of foreigners that are here looking for a different type of life. In this house, you will meet many of the locals, we can hang out. I can show you around and introduce you to like-minded travelers.
Help
Since life became so busy trying to work and construct at the same time, house help is a lot appreciated. Do you have a passion for healthy cooking and can help around with household tasks, this is also very much appreciated. Are you a yoga teacher or aspiring to be and want to give some morning classes, this is also very welcome. Sports coaches that can cook. Household tasks... Repairs and gardening.. I can use some good combination of these skills.
Right now I need:
Plastering
Painter
Carpenter
Gardener
Sports coach and healthy chef/enthusiast

Of course it would be great to learn together :)Accommodation
The house is a villa with two apartments and an anexo. There is outside space all around the house, and you are free to make use of every part of the house/garden. I have rented the apartment upstairs and have a room available downstairs. The house is next to the road that takes from Lagos to Sagres. From the bedroom window you can see a hint of South coast sea, but with a 5-minute drive you get to the west coast too.
I have here a comfortable private room available with 2 windows.What else ...
If you enjoy surfing, this is the place. The locality is close to beaches on both west and south coast.
