Description
Hello, I am Kendall and my husband is Karl.
We are looking for an individual or a couple that can come and take care of our place and water the garden for the period of around mid August to mid September with flexibility while we are away travelling. It would be great if we had some overlap time and we could do some bonding and share the area with you.
We live in a picturesque part of the world close to Serta. We are on the edge of a village with 4,000 sq metres of land with fruit and olive trees. We love living in the countryside and hope thatb you do to. There is the benefit of being really close to Serta as well as a heap of other lovely towns including Cernache do Bonjardim and Pedrogao. There may be a bit gardening and plenty of watering as August is the hotter month. Having a car is essential as there is only a small cafe with basic groceries a short walk up the road but Serta is 5 minutes by car. We are also really close to Cernace de Bonjardim and Pedrogao Grande. Looking forward to hearing from you! -

Karl is a landscape gardener and you will learn a lot of things from his experience. I am a great cook and can impart recipes. We are both able to help teach pruning, dry stone walling and general maintenance.
