Description
😊 Hello, I’m Eilis,
I recently moved to a magical piece of land between Lagos and Aljezur, about 26 minutes from the nearest beach. It’s peaceful, with a lovely old well, an intermittent river, olive trees, cork oaks, fruit trees and horses, a semi abandoned village and an ancient burial groud nearby. I share the space with Maya the friendliest dog and four independent cats Fritz, Dolly Luxme and w Flora. I can offer simple accomodation and once the solar system is up electricity to run a fridge🥰
I enjoy sharing good conversation about life, purpose, and how we want to show up in the world. I’m a trained midwife and work with women and children, offering support around birth, babies, and early life. I can also teach some beginners Portuguese. Im interested in all aspects of life and curious about people and love to share stories.
I’m building a small off-grid home for my family and granddaughter who will join me next year. Im Looking for self-motivated, upbeat people who enjoy meaningful, physical work who want to experience what it is like setting up an off-grid home. There’s plenty to do — clearing brambles, pruning and trimming trees. I need help with clearing and pulling out the slash as I cut it out of the river bed and the verge. I plan, with a local builder, to build a pump house and shed, setting up a solar system, and creating a simple outdoor shower and laundry area. Eventually I will rebuild structures with hemp block with a very experienced permaculture builder and in the mean time I will be planting a food forest. That is the overall plan 🤗. I have been in Portugal many years and have experience with Permaculture building and gardening and much more.
The work is satisfying, hands-on work that suits people who are physically fit, enjoy being outdoors, and like to see the results of their effort at the end of the day. We will uncover many interesting aspects of the land as clearing continues.
My diet could be described as ancestral low-carb. However we have a few different kitchen areas that can be utilised to suit Various dietary Preferences.
If you’re warm, kind, and respectful, and enjoy living simply and in tune with the natural world and Natural Law, please get in contact😊
I look forward to hearing from you.

I enjoy thoughtful conversations, I have over 20 years experience and much knowledge regarding Portugal, including stewarding the land to protect from wild fires. I’m interested in self-care, sharing, good values, giving and receiving and showing up in the world in a positive way. I’m interested in everything we can do to live more in tune with the universal energy and giving thanks to the creator.
