  Work with Peer, a very experienced all round professional that does and knows more than meets the eye.
  Learn construction, farming, farm holding, and generally anything you can imagine.
  Peer is following and always happy to hear suggestions regarding organic growing and permaculture ways.
  
  Sleep inside his beautiful wooden house, a tent or your own vehicle. Other building projects are ongoing for accommodation. He manages a beautiful land near the picturesque village of Monsanto, with a stunning view of the mountains.
  
  Very peaceful and fully offgrid. 3.5km from nearest village. Own transport preferable but not essential. Good access for large and small vehicles, plenty of parking for a camper or live in vehicle.
  
  People are welcome anytime of the year and there is always something to be learned and to be done.
  
  Many cats! Also sheep all around the farm, so dogs must be fully controlled at all times to prevent any issues with the neighbours. Like to just take care of the pets, work on the land, and help keep the house running, Peer and the animals will be delighted.
  
  Bem vindo!
