Description
I am a carpenter who came to this beautiful piece of land 20 years ago. Starting with a pocket knife and living in a van I slowly made this my home moving from the Nomad life into something more stable. Having created everything by my own I can now in my 40s enjoy the fruits of my creation aswell as live a lifestyle I always dreamt of as a child:)
Except the gas for the cooking we live completely off the grid.
We have chicken a dog and a cat.
Also we have a little vegetable garden that holds seasonal plants and of course requires permanent attention.
There is also a small carpentry workshop on the land where I earn my daily bread.
There are always projects happening on a plot like this besides the general maintenance.
We are situated near a small village. Walking distance approx. 10--15 minutes
and about 4 km from the nearest beach.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
The south west algarve is a unique and beautiful place.
There are several beaches to explore and the winters here are mild and mostly sunny.
We live completely off-grid which brings a few challenges, but over the years we have established everything for our needs.
As I am a trained and skilled carpenter, working in this trade for 20 years now you might be able to also pick up a few tricks and hints when it comes to woodworking.
Off course I am also always interested in picking up new ideas and approaches to projects no matter what kind.
I love to learn myself.

It was our very first Workaway experience, and we couldn’t have started in a better way. Kai is an incredible person, with a huge heart, who welcomed us with open arms from the very first moment. He picked us up in Lagos, took us to the market, showed us the local beaches and, above all, gave us a home.

No challenge seems to big for him to… read more

I stayed at Kai's beautiful place just for a week but it was long enough to feel like home. I've done some simple jobs around the house, mainly cleaning and making it all neat, which I enjoyed a lot! Moreover I did help Kai a bit in his workshop, I'm grateful he introduced me there! The girls are charming and active, they will steal… read more
