We're not professionals by any means, but we are both very much interested in building with natural materials, permaculture, and much more. We are eager to learn and quick to pick up on things.

We've had a lovely time at Yas and Rick's quinta, beautifully hidden away from outside noise. When we arrived, there were 4 other volunteers, so with us 3 it was a full house. Ofcourse, this slimmed down towards the end as the season was almost over. The quinta is absolutely gorgeous, the piece of land is huge and it has many hidden treasures you … read more can find. The communal areas were great, a beautiful open kitchen and a lovely outdoor shower. Unfortunately, Rick had some health-problems, which meant he couldn't be as active as he would've liked, but we still got to spend some good time together. We figured out after a little bit of time that a vehicle is very much needed for this area, so this is a recommendation for any volunteers wanting to go here. When you have a car or van, you're able to go to beautiful springs and swimming spots nearby, or go grocery shopping and wash some clothes in Tondela. The area around is stunning, so really make use of your afternoons. The jobs were pretty physically intense, probably also because we weren't used to it yet, so this took some time for our bodies to adjust but I can say I left stronger than I arrived. In August it also meant waking up pretty early to escape the sun & heat, as the mountain is on the south side, so from 11 on it get's hot pretty quick. Most of our time was spent working with wood, bringing it up, cutting it to pieces, stripping the bark, breaking up the fire-wood and so forth. Some other jobs included hacking out roots or fixing a leaking tank with cement. We got provided with grains, some shelf-stable items as beans or tomato cans, milks, veggies and fresh eggs and fruit from the garden. We slept near a beautiful pond on the lower side of the mountain, so this was really private and beautiful. The last couple days we got to sleep in the old ambulance-van, which was even more of an incredible experience. Rick & Yas are lovely spiritual and open-minded people, with whom you can have great interesting conversations and spend hours listening to all their wisdom they gathered about sustainable living. It gave us a really good view on the realistic side of having this much land, which can be challenging to keep up with. Overall, we have loved our first workaway experience. We are excited to see how far along the quinta will be when we go back to this area, since they're still in the beginning phase of the project, so it will only grow to be more beautiful I imagine. Best of luck x

Momo and Sara traveled with Josh and the 3 of them really were a team..
They worked hard together, never complained and got stuck into any task that we had for them.. tasks on the farm are hard and the days were hot but there was no complaints whatsoever… just dedication, commitment, determination and a level of work that was very high.. They … read more
