Description
In november and december 2024 we, Herma and Hans, have travelled through Portugal while biking and camping. We want to share our abilities with people living in Portugal.We are looking for work in the Algarve or Alentejo.

At home we are involved in the process of building an eco village for 50 persons. That means building straw bale houses, gardening and many other jobs needed. We are practical people with a hands on mentality. Apart from this, we care about animal wellfare very much. We hope to find a place where we can get involved in sustainability or a project for animal care and wellfare.
