Description
We are couple of ladies looking for some extra help. We live on a beautiful farm near Covilhã, Serra da Estrela mountain in center Portugal. Currently, I'm taking care of my mom, who's going to be 90 pretty soon. We need some help and especially as I enjoy good company, talk and laugh so much.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
Elderly Companionship
Creating/ Cooking family meals
General Maintenance
Farmstay help
Help around the house
Animal Care
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
It's pretty important to have some help in the morning and evening. Rest of the time you can travel around, have some walks or refreshing swim in the mountain, while having real traditional portuguese meals and learning about olive oil or wine.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
I would really appreciate help with my mother, doing some exercise, some distrations (maybe singing she would love), cooking will be also a good help and room and house cleaning...
I always have a small veg garden and flower gardens around the house that requires watering and some love.
Our doggies and kitties will be very happy also if you will bring some cuddles to the farm

Accommodation
There is a cosy room waiting for you.. if you like camping there are plenty of brilliant spots to set a tent. We'll share a bathroom and kitchen, hopefully share cooking skills as well ;)
What else ...
just by the entrance to the farm there's a bus stop to reach nearest towns. We could also arrange a bike for you to be less dependent on schedules.
