Description
We are a middle-aged semi-retired English couple, vegan/veggie. We can’t eat dairy products and choose not to eat meat or fish. The house is in the valley surrounded by mountains and 30 mins to the beach. Teri speaks English, Spanish, French and Portuguese (Brazilian). Teri is a good cook and great teacher. I on the other hand only speak English and a little Spanish, but have many manual skills. We live as much as possible with a mind on the environment and try not to impact on nature.
I am a (new) beekeeper into my second year and learning all the time. Unfortunately over this winter I've had problems with moths and I'm bee less at the moment.
