    Description

    Hello, my name is Alberto, I live in the Fonsagrada area, Lugo, Spain. It is a mountain area in the heart of the Galician countryside. Since July of this year I have made a return to the countryside. I think it has been a success. From 2016 to 2021 I already spent five years in this area, resulting in one of the happiest periods of my life. For work and family reasons I had to move to the city again for three years, 2021-2024, but now I have decided to return to the countryside and here I am again. The municipality of Fonsagrada is an area with a high natural and ethnographic value, here you can find towns and natural places that still have the values of authentic Galicia. Native oak and chestnut forests, rivers, mountains and valleys with great biodiversity, in addition to the neighboring municipalities, such as Ancares, Negueira de Muñiz, Pedrafita... which are very rich in landscape. This is an excellent rural area to live and visit. At this moment I live alone although from time to time my two children or friends come to visit me. I also travel frequently to nearby cities.


    Hola, me llamo Alberto, vivo en la zona de Fonsagrada, Lugo, España.
    Es una zona de montaña en pleno rural gallego.
    Desde julio de este año he realizado una vuelta al rural. Creo que ha sido un acierto.
    Del año 2016 al 2021 ya pasé una temporada de cinco años en esta zona, resultando una de las etapas más felices de mi vida. Por motivos de trabajo y familiares tuve que volver a desplazarme otra vez a la ciudad durante tres años, 2021-2024, pero ahora he decidido volver al rural y aquí estoy otra vez.
    El municipio de Fonsagrada es una zona con un alto valor natural y etnográfico, aquí puedes encontrar pueblos y lugares naturales que siguen teniendo los valores de la Galicia auténtica.
    Bosques autóctonos de robles y castaños, ríos, montañas y valles de una gran biodiversidad, además de los municipios limítrofes, cómo Ancares, Negueira de Muñiz, Pedrafita… que son muy ricos paisajísticamente.
    Esta es una zona rural excelente para vivir y visitar.
    En este momento vivo sólo aunque de vez en cuando vienen mis dos hijos o amigos a visitarme. Yo también me desplazo con frecuencia a ciudades cercanas.

    Help

    I have a house in full habitable condition and farms that I would like to prepare for future planting, also for beekeeping. I needed help to start with these tasks in addition to other tasks related to the maintenance of the farm, such as clearing brush or preparing firewood. In addition to this, I am also dedicated to the web, audiovisual and photography environment and carry out audiovisual and photographic projects in the area where I live. What interests me most is that you help me with the agricultural and beekeeping that I am going to start developing. I do not intend to use visitors for my audiovisual or photographic work, but I can offer them information and teaching in these image sectors. We would do all the tasks together. In addition to sharing experience in rural jobs, I would also like to share language exchange (especially English) and I am also a musician, if the interested person has artistic gifts, it would be a great exchange of knowledge and creativity.



    Tengo casa en plenas condiciones de habitabilidad y fincas que me gustaría ir preparando para futura siembras, también para apicultura. Necesitaba ayuda para empezar con estas labores además de otras propias del mantenimiento del caserío cómo desbroces o la preparación de la leña. Además de esto también me dedico al entorno web, audiovisual y fotografía y realizo proyectos audiovisuales y fotográficos por la zona donde vivo.
    Todas las tareas las realizaríamos juntos. Además de compartir la experiencia en los trabajos rurales, también me gustaría compartir intercambio de idiomas ( sobre todo inglés) y también soy músico, si la persona interesada tiene dotes artísticos, sería un gran intercambio de conocimientos y creatividad.
