  Description

  Hello, We are Ami & Samy.
  
  Our project was born out of our mutual dream to live close to nature, completely off-grid, with a self-sustained but comfortable regenerative lifestyle. We found our dream land in Alentejo, between the picturesque hills of Cercal do Alentejo and the stunning beaches of Porto Covo. We started out from scratch, as there was nothing on the land, and planted thousands of trees and plants to regenerate the soil. We built some amazing structures like the Zome temple for gatherings, concerts, retreats and other events, as well as a specious Kitchen area and hangout space, a stage for bigger events and festivals, a few comfortable toilets and showers, and many wooden platforms for our glamping tents to host our guests. We use solar power as our energy source and we get water straight from the land. We installed smart filter systems ( for both gray and black water) in order to filter the water and recycle it all back to the land via the irrigation system.
  
  We are currently looking for two major positions (please only apply if you intend to stay long term with us):
  1. Housekeeping crew support: You will be supporting our housekeeping manager in cleaning and organizing of our facilities (Zome temple, toilets, showers, tents, kitchen and common areas). Helping with setting up the land for the season and wrapping and packing at the end of the season.
  2. Land keeping & Maintenance crew support: You will be supporting our head of maintenance with various maintenance tasks like gardening, working with wood, fixing fences (or anything else that would need fixing), preparing the land for our guests before the season and wrapping and packing thigs up at the end of the season.
  
  Both positions are paid positions in accordance to the Portuguese wages requirements.
  
  
  Much more to say, but If what you read here resonates with you, please feel free to get in touch with us and we´ll take it from there.
  
  Looking forward to hear from you!
  
  Ami & Samy

  Hébergement

  Our accommodations include a super cozy 4m diameter glamping tents in which we host our guests and staff. There is a big shared kitchen space where we cook for ourselves and our guests. At the end of the day you will be able to enjoy the occasional after hours jams and/or late night conversations (when the mood is there). There is also a comfortable bathroom (not compost) and indoor and outdoor hot showers for your use. All and all our place is pretty unique in many ways, we care a lot for our team and our communication channels are always open.

  Autres infos...

  Our project is located in a very special area, a very authentic one, still pure and hardly touched by tourists, and yet surrounded by some of Portugal´s most beautiful beaches and landscapes. The land lays between protected natural reserves and the never-ending Alentejo hilly views on one hand, and a stunning strip of beaches on the other. It offers the best of the countryside tranquil lifestyle mixed with a wide-spread local community attractions which may include weekends markets, gatherings of all sorts, Jam circles with some amazing international musicians, and much more. Once in a while we host gathering in our Zome temple, so if you happen to be around at the time you might catch some sweet memorable moments.
  Although it's best to arrive here with a car, there is an easy and direct public transport that arrives to our area, once you are around we can easily pick you up and bring you to the land. That said, in order to feel free and get the most of the offerings around its really recommended to have a car or rent one together with other crew members.
