  Description

  I'm currently working remotely on IT projects, and I've always loved the countryside and outdoors activities. My family has this property in Montijo and since there's room and a lot to do around, I thought it would be nice to add it here to bring in people to help and share knowledge and a great time around :)
  
  I'm a traveler myself and would proably be somewhere else right now, but the property is here so wtf.. why not try something here and share with others?
  
  In the previous year I had a few meetups, party or events with expats or travelers around so the place is already used to having people around with music, activities, food, cooking together, farming, etc..
  
  At this stage, we’ve already have some people helping in the previous weeks,so theres “working” rooms, bathroom, places to sleep however everything needs a fresh look and still some work done heheh
  
  I also like yoga / buddhism / philosophy / spiritual practices and talks so I'm always up for more talking and sharing!
  Be it survival in the bushes, some movie or book, or spiritual talks about the universe.
  The world has been losing any kind of sense lately anyway so theres great talks to have! Always a positive side.
  
  Visit anytime.
  Just a day or a couple weeks :)
  
  Or we can schedule a videocall and I'll tour you around while answering all questions!

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I was born in Lisbon and lived around for a few decades. I can really help you understand portuguese culture and let you know how we locals live.. away from the touristic center in our happy and chill lives hahah.
  
  I love driving my car around with my good music so I'm used to taking people around to just show how we live around as someone from here, and show Lisbon with different touch other than the touristic regular approach. I also love technology, have been always working on it, however I love to talk about and wonder about the universe and our collective conscience and how technology interacts with it so I'm always up for a chat about it heheh.
  
  Also love movies and art, and we definitely have to build together some crafts workshop around the place to bring in art, colors, music and kinetic to the place. The materials are already available for you artists.. paints, fabrics, stuff.. you know what i mean if you're into it heheh
  
  I'm sometimes too much empathic and caring for others so I'll probably tune you in before you even arrive and you'll likely feel at home :)

  Help

  EDIT 12/04/2023:
  
  I need some specific help this time!
  I'm open to general help but I really need digital marketing and website creation.
  
  I'm about to start something like this property in the countryside but I'm building the community first and and would love to share more, so if you're someone interested in eco-living, small communities and how to find the best balance between progress, nature and technology, let me know! Just being into the subject will help me a lot and theres a lot you can help me with. I don't know how exactly yet, but you probably do!
