Description
I moved to Portugal 5 years ago and have a small farm, it is not a business,it's peaceful, lots of wildlife especially birds. Black cat farm, is my home, it is not a business, it is so called as I have 6 black cats that live on the farm
The small town is near by and had some original features as well as supermarkets and local shops, everything about the area feels calm and peaceful so if you are looking for some peace and quiet in the afternoons and weekends them you will like it here.There is a larger town 12km away which again had shops and history also a railway station.Lisbon is a train ride away.
There are plenty of bars,cafe's, restaurant's, Post office etc as well as walks and hiking trails
My family visit occasionally from the UK
There are 9 cats that live on the farm, some share the house others like the annex so you must like cats and be animal friendly in general .

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
It would be good to meet other people and exchange ideas and knowledge, having retired and moved out here it would be good to catch up with the world in general and learn about different cultures etc. There is always something new to learn and everyone has something to contribute.
