    Description

    Hello! My name is Vitor and I live in a very quiet and beautiful area in the countryside, between São Miguel and Odeceixe on the Alentejo coast.
    I live with my two kids 🦜🦜 Pipoo and Chico (Cockatiels), who are my kids and great companions and often fly around the house freely, but only when I am present.
    I am a calm, organised and open-minded person.
    Right now, I need a helping hand to better organise my property, moving things around, lifting things, clean up the land. We have been living here since October 2025.
    It is not heavy construction work, but I need someone who is physically strong (muscles!) to help me lift and move furniture and some heavier things that I cannot do alone.
    I am looking for someone who is respectful and feels comfortable in an LGBT-friendly environment. The most important thing for me is that the volunteer is very careful with my birds' rules. We can talk about the rules and I can explain everything.

    Olá! Chamo-me Vitor e vivo numa zona muito calma e bonita no campo, entre São Miguel e Odeceixe na Costa Alentejana.
    Vivo com os meus dois filhotes 🦜🦜 Pipoo e o Chico (Caturras), que são a minha grande companhia e andam muitas vezes a voar à solta pela casa, eles só estão livres quando estou presente.
    Sou uma pessoa tranquila, organizado e de mente aberta.
    Neste momento, preciso de uma mãozinha para organizar melhor a minha propriedade. Estamos a viver aqui desde Outubro 2025.
    Não é um trabalho de construção pesada, mas preciso de alguém que tenha força física (músculos!) para me ajudar a levantar e mover móveis e algumas coisas mais pesadas que sozinho não consigo.
    Procuro alguém respeitador e que se sinta bem num ambiente LGBT-friendly. O mais importante para mim é que o voluntário seja muito cuidadoso com as regras dos meus pássaros , sobre as regras poderemos falar e poderei explicar tudo.

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Having lived abroad for many years, I have a very broad perspective and mindset, not just an atypical Portuguese one. I think we can both learn from and teach each other.

    Tendo vivido muitos anos no estrangeiro tenho uma visão e mentalidade muito vasta e não só atípica portuguesa. Penso que ambos os lados podemos aprender e ensinar

    Help

    The idea is to help me for about half a day with cleaning and organising heavy items. The schedule can be flexible, we can arrange it according to the weather or your plans for going out. In exchange, I offer a private room and food. We can agree whether you prefer to cook your own meals or if we share some. I use a food processor and electric stove to avoid any danger to my 🦜🦜 gremlins.
    I would like someone with whom we can also exchange ideas, talk, go out, and not just someone who does their tasks and there is no communication for that, so I prefer not to have anyone here at home.

    A ideia é ajudar-me cerca de meio dia com as limpezas e a organização das coisas pesadas. O horário pode ser flexível, combinamos conforme o tempo ou os teus planos para passear. Em troca, ofereço um quarto privado e comida. Podemos combinar se preferes cozinhar as tuas refeições ou se partilhamos algumas. Uso robot de cozinha e fogão eléctrico para evitar algum perigo para os meus 🦜🦜 gremlins.
    Gostaria de alguém com quem também possamos trocar de ideias, falar, passear e não só alguém que faça as suas tarefas e não haja comunicação para isso então prefiro não ter ninguém aqui em casa.

    My German and Dutch got very rusty so I would be happy to exercise those languages again, if not, why not learning new languages?

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    You have your own private room, the bathroom etc. is shared, there is wifi, TV box.

    For meals, I’m happy to provide 3 meals a day. But I suggest that we go to make groceries together so you can choose the things you like to eat in case we have different tastes. However, I live simple life and don’t buy expensive things, so I expect the same from you. We can have all basic ingredients available for breakfast and lunch, and we can figure out dinner as we go, either cooking together or independently.
    I’m very easy going, I don’t eat spicy. But with a good communication everything is possible. In life there’s always solutions ;

    Tens o teu quarto individual , casa de banho etc é partilhado, tens wifi, TV box
