Description
We are Olga and Alvaro. We grew up in the Netherlands and Uruguay, respectively, after living in the prairies of the U.S. for 16+ years we have now made our home in the Azores and the Algarve. Currently we both work part time, remotely. Good food, hosting friends and family, exploringPortugal and outdoors activities are some of our favorite things. We are proud and grateful for having 3 major projects and hosted travelers for over 2 years. We have been super impressed by the work of the volunteers, and enjoy their positive, creative energy every day.
