  Description

  Ola amigo/s!
  
  My name is Ofir, originally from Israel, and I live together on this beautiful land with my partner Emilia (Sweden) and our daughter Alva (4 years old and born in Portugal) We live in a very interesting alternative area close to Tamera and Mooji Community and many small farms and communities that we are connected with, as well as many local markets, amazing beaches and a beautiful paradise river called "pego das pias"
  
  Our place fits to someone who likes a calm, close to nature lifestyle, who are independent and the same time like to share time together with us and possibly more people as well as the vivid life around of this alternative community with many singing circles, ceremonies, different interesting workshops and everything you can expect from one of the most alternative areas in Europe.
  
  Me and Emilia are vegans for many years and are very connected to a healthy diet and lifestyle. We both like to practice yoga, love music, dance and singing circles, good vibes and a joyful living!
  
  Before settling in Portugal I was a global traveler for many years (I travelled and worked in more than 20 countries around the world) and got knowledge about many different areas which has given me a good base for starting this project.
  
  Emilia has as well a background of travelling the world since early childhood and seeing many different cultures. She is passionate about raw vegan food, different healing practices, sustainable lifestyle, gardening and all kinds of art and handicraft.
  
  Our kitchen is 100% VEGAN and you will be responsible for buying/harvesting and cooking your own food, you're welcome to use what ever you like from our garden! The meals we sometimes eat together and sometimes not, depending on how we feel day by day.
  
  We would like to invite you for a long period of time, minimum of 1 month. The work can some days be a few hours and some you will not work at all. Probably we will not ask you to contribute more than 15 hours a week, can be one week more and another one less, the work will sometimes be together and sometimes alone.
  
  We will prefer a person that already have experience and some handy skills, as well a person who have his own car.
  
  We offer you a nice and cozy caravan, a fully equipped community kitchen that is for everyone to use with a big chilling area + dry compost toilet and shower that is located just near the caravan.
  
  Waiting to meet you 🤗!
  For more info please contact me. I am looking forward to hear from you :)
