  Description

  Hello travelers! I am Lorena, I am 33 years old and I live in a house with land where there are fruit trees, an o biodynamic garden, chickens and geese and many plants.Three cats and my life partner Tula (she is a dog) also live there.It is located in a town south of Extremadura.
  
  Extremadura is a western Spanish region that borders Portugal and is made up of the provinces of Cáceres and Badajoz. It is crossed by mountains, forests, lakes and reserves, among which the Monfragüe National Park and the Cornalvo Natural Park stand out, where you can observe all types of wild birds. The capital of the community is Mérida, famous for the Roman ruins of the Augusta Emerita colony, with aqueducts, theaters, a circus and a bridge over the Guadiana River.
  
  In my free time I like to go climbing, do yoga, hiking, birding, astronomy, in general activities related to the natural environment.
