Description
we are a german couple in the age of 60iies, living in a small village in Portugal 75km south east of Porto in a beautiful environment. We have 1400m² of garden with different kind of fruits and vegetables. We have startet to cultivate our garden in a biological way (perma culture) 3 years ago and that is a never ending process. We are not the youngest and we like to have guests to share time with them and have also a helping hand mostly in the garden but sometimes also in the house. We are open to other cultures, have made social projects in africa for more then 10 years.
