  Description

  I'm a single mom to a 3.5 year old with Down syndrome. I live in a small community in the south of Portugal. We are 6 families living on a beautiful land, growing our own food, raising our children together and learning what it's like living and growing together. I'm looking for someone for long term, at least 6 months who can help me a bit around the house and spending time with my son. 20-25 weekly hours for the food and accommodation and extra money for any extra hours.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We are 23 people from 6 different countries, 5 dogs, 5 cats and 4 chickens. We have a permaculture garden where our very professional earth carers grow our food and heal the land. We have many different skills between us like- carpentry, tattooing, reforestation, vegan dessert making (that's me), and more. There is so much happening around us- markets, dance, healing retreats, and lots more.
