Description
We are new hosts this Spring! We have a beautiful, comfortable country house and garden with pool in the hills near Sintra, Portugal. We live a longevity lifestyle: organic food, yoga, holistic health and alternative healing etc, and hope you do too!

It is quiet, but in a great location half an hour from Lisbon by train, 15 minutes from popular seaside town of Cascais, and not far from several gorgeous beaches northwest of Sintra.
(We have two CATS, who are in and out of the house.)

We are asking a MINIMUM STAY OF AT LEAST 2 WEEKS TO ONE MONTH. but a longer stay could be an option, if it works for both sides!

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
English spoken primarily, with some Portuguese, so you will have the opportunity to brush up on both of these languages.

I was born in Portugal, and know the area well, and love to share my country’s beauty and fascinating history. Workawayers will earn about holistic living, natural health, nutrition, how to maintain a yard/garden, all in a beautiful, peaceful setting.

The study of natural healing has been developing for years now, so you will learn a lot, and hopefully develop some good habits for a longevity lifestyle!
Aide
Seeking interesting, forward-thinking energetic workawayers ( at this time, we are not able to host couples or people with children!) interested in helping around the place generally: light housekeeping, cleaning and organizing, interior/exterior PAINTING projects, maintaining and improving the yard, starting to PLANT AN ORGANIC GARDEN is on our to-do list this Spring. Express your creativity, artists welcome!

Your required work hours will usually take place in the mornings, from 9-12, but possible to be flexible if either side needs a later time in the day, when things come up.

You MUST be a NEAT, CLEAN, ORGANIZED, CONSCIENTIOUS person who puts things back in their place, completes tasks, and be willing to keep the house/yard in excellent condition, and running smoothly...
