Description
i am a teacher, writer, shiatsu practitioner, being in nature is an art of living. I spend a lot of time teaching portuguese at home. I live in a dream place in nature, within a beautiful community, ideal for artists, musicians and writers. If you like contemplative life and meditation, if you like to be exposed to the elements, hear the wind, river, birds, this is your place. I love dancing, working on the land, walking in the wild, and watching the seasons and light changing. I feel very connected in this place, it nourishes me and fills me with love, inner peace and sense of purpose.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You will benefit from being in nature. You will have the opportunity to know natural beauty, waterfalls, walks in nature, time to be on your own and explore the area. You will have oportunity to make friends who share a common vision of honoring our beautiful mother Earth and work for a greener, sustainable life style in harmony with nature. The place is stunning, quiet, with a brook flowing on the bottom of the land and a beautiful waterfall. If you are an artist / musician /writer you will be inspired every second by the surroundings.

The work was mostly building shelves using wood from the land, which I really enjoyed, because it had an artistic touch. Also building steps and clearing the land. The place is beautiful, with a waterfall. I met lots of interesting people at the markets. Tried Improvisational Dancing and did walks around… read more
