    daughters; Ize (12) and Fenna (10) and baby Olle (1)
    8 cats, 3 dogs, chickens, pigs, goats

    4 years ago we sold everything in the Netherlands and started a wonderful adventure in a camper with the hole family and animals.
    That trip brought us to Portugal. To be more specific... The Serra da Estrella.
    We fell in love with the mountains, the people and the pure life that the people live here. In this part of Portugal, the person really counts! Even over money.

    So we sold our house on wheels and dived into the deep end. We bought 3.5 hectares of land to become as self-sufficient as possible together with the locals.

    The valley where we live is a beautiful place with a lot of families wanting to be chance for the future of our kids and the planet.
    We homeschool our kids, although they go to a homeschool place once a week and once a week to a forest school. One year ago our lovely Benjamin is born. We are all so in love with him. A present in our live.

    6 months ago we started with building up the ruin to our house. See pictures. At the moment that takes all of our time. So at the moment we would really be helped with all the things we don't have a lot of time for right now. Think about cooking, household, a bit more time of homeschooling for the kids, taking care for the animals (like cleaning the chickenhouse and goathouse), taking care of the veggies in te greenhouse, etc..

    We can provide a 4 persons tent with bedding. And of course making use of the kitchen and bathroom. Starlink internet.

  • Alojamiento

    Alojamiento

    We own 3.5 hectare of land. So a place to sleep is not a problem.
    However like we said, the road is a dirt road good enough for regular cars, vans and medium sized campers.
    For really long and wide campers it will be impossible.

    So you can put your own camper, tent, car, or van etc. on our land.

    We can and will provide bedding if you can’t arrange that you’re self! Also a tent to sleep in is available on our Quinta.

    Extra's
    - wassing machine is an option
    - electricity on solar (with restrictions when the weather is bad)
    - a warm bath
    - compost toilet
    - water is no problem

    If it clicks, you are welcome and otherwise both have the freedom to say goodbye!
