Description
Greetings! I'm Paula, a spirited 43-year-old Brazilian woman who has found her home in the captivating landscapes of Portugal's Serra da Estrela natural park. Here, amidst the serenity of nature, I manage my own off-grid farm.

I'm currently seeking enthusiastic individuals to lend a hand with a variety of tasks, ranging from tending to the garden to embarking on DIY projects such as expanding our solar energy system.

Rest assured, my farm offers modern conveniences. We have electricity, lightning-fast internet (thanks to Sky Link), and, of course, hot water for your comfort. And when it comes to culinary delights, you're in for a treat; I take pride in crafting delectable pastries in the kitchen.

For accommodation, I provide a cozy caravan with a comfortable double bed and a convenient kitchenette. As for groceries, simply let me know your needs, and I'll ensure they're delivered right to our doorstep. While I adhere to a daily 16-hour fast for religious purposes, I'm happy to prepare occasional dinners for us to enjoy together, accompanied by a glass of wine.

In exchange for your assistance, I request 5 hours of work per day, 5 days a week. You'll have the opportunity to engage in a variety of tasks, from nurturing our green spaces to participating in exciting projects.

During your downtime, if it's just you and me on the farm, you'll have the freedom to pursue your interests. Serra da Estrela is renowned as the most beautiful natural park in Portugal, and I'm located at its gateway. In your free time, you can enjoy numerous walks and lakes within the park. Moreover, my 12-hectare farm boasts numerous fruit trees for you to enjoy and three natural spring water tanks where you can bathe on hot days.

I'm excited to welcome you to our farm!

Warm regards,
Paula
