Descripción

We are a couple who have been working (very hard!) for many years and in 2022 decided it’s time move on to a new challenge and a different lifestyle.
We are very active and we have a great appreciation for the outdoors.
We have relocated to Portugal and may one day even become a Host with our own project, but as we don't know exactly where we want to be, and before we decide where to settle, we want to help others, use our skills and learn new ones, improve our Portuguese, and immerse ourselves in the local culture.
Last year we used the Workaway community to give us that opportunity of having a base, and helping others, whilst also being able to explore. We got involved in many projects from dry stone walling to delivering lambs!
We are looking to do much the same this year and have references on request plus photos of projects we have done.
