Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
You’ll learn gardening, regenerative food systems, some cooking. I’ve done something like “Chef at Home”.
I’ve experienced in Permaculture and small-scale regenerative agriculture. Now I’m focusing on food, sovereignty and fermentations, gut-brain axis, and long-term health based on natural foods and lifestyle changes. I’ve been gardening and involved with food production since I was a little girl and continue to this day.
I studied microbiology and bio engineering, marine biology and English literature. If you’re interested to learn fiber crafts, knitting, wool-spinning, I’m your host. But you’ll learn it on your free time not on gardening days lol I think you get my drift 😉

Ayuda
I am looking for mature and hardworking individuals, kind and thoughtful, who can be self-motivated and anticipate how to be helpful. I need you to be fit and capable.
The help I need is gardening, some house maintenance, little bit cooking. Garden Experience is a plus. I prefer volunteers who don’t drink or smoke or come home drunk.
When you’re part of my Home/family, I will need some help preparing meals or setting table 🍽️ and washing dishes (normal stuff you do already for your parents!).
My work is landscape/gardens so we will do some heavy lifting (20 kgs), weeding, raking, yard work. Some light construction involving concrete and lumber.
I ask you for five days of work, two days off, the work days are 4-5 hours each. It can be flexible depending on weather and social needs. We can discuss the specifics on WhatsApp.
Idiomas hablados
Inglés: Fluido
Portugués: Intermedio
Francés: Principiante
Alojamiento
I have a complete house to share amenities, hot water, toilet, washing machine. We dry clothes outside.
On work days, meals are provided by me. On days off, you can buy things to add to the general welfare. We can collaborate on meals together or with friends.
I’m a single mom, so I’m frugal, we don’t eat steaks every day lol. Don’t worry, you won’t lose weight and get skinny. If you have food, allergies, or are very picky eater, on a special diet, I’m not your host.
Sometimes I cook a 🍰dessert and make a special occasion. Sometimes we go to friend's homes and do 🔥🍔🍗🌭cookouts. Everyone shares what they bring.
I respectfully ask please NO drugs, smoking or alcohol at my house. I have children.
I need you to wake up early in the morning with me and stay on my schedule. If you are late night person, I’m not your host.
Algo más...
On your time off you have so many choices of trails. Swimmers and Nature lovers would be happiest here, with all the hiking and trails available. If you need raves, this isn’t for you.

I want to thank you for everything- making me feel so much at home, always good food on the table, introducing me to all your lovely friends, taking me around and making sure I found my way. This month on Flores was unforgetable!
As the weather was unstable not much could be done in the gardens, instead we would adapt to the… read more
