Description
My name is Ginie and I live and work in the Algarve. I manage a large quinta and run a a small animal charity. I have up to 8 dogs to look after, vegetable plot, chickens, garden etc. I am located 20 minutes from Faro airport, on a 3,5 hectare farm, relatively close to amenities, and still in the middle of nowhere. Due to medical issues (impaired vision leading to blindness) I no longer can do this all myself... and I am not quite ready to give up this life.. so am looking for some help.

Help
I am looking for help with fixing things on the farm (quinta), fencing, shade on the veggie plot, gardening, moving plants, clearing and cleaning of areas, basically all sorts of day to day work. Due to medical issues (impaired vision leading to blindness) I no longer can do this all myself... and I am not quite ready to give up this life.. You can work in the mornings and have the afternoons off...
