Description
***currently , we are looking for motivated Workawayer to support us with clearing and removing bushes. Although there is some gardening to do ***
We are part of an association that bought 36 hectares in the Serra Monchique.
Within the 36ha, groups have turned to individual areas in order to shape them individually according to their needs and to live together in good neighbourhood.
We David, Gunda with our Children Matilda (8) and Milan(3) are creating infrastructure and living space. We started at 0 in the middle of nature 2019. Now we have a Yurt for living space, a big outdoor kitchen, a small clay house and some caravans as sleeping rooms. .
The property is located in a beautiful and remote area. It is about 5 km to the country road. There is a river and a small lake on the property.
