  Descrição

  About us:
  As a family of four we moved from the Netherlands to Portugal in 2021. We found this beautiful land in South West Portugal close to a few of the best surfing spots this land has to offer. We live in this beautiful valley on a 3 hectare land, and it is only 3 minutes drive to the village of Aljezur, and 10 min to the beach.
  The land is a true paradise, there is an orchard, a veggie garden, forrest, and a Private Lake in which you can take a refreshing dive. My wife Anne Marije is busy with perma culture, pottery, and baking the best cakes in the region!
  Our son Oscar 14 yrs likes surfing and helping on the land with all kinds of things, mowing the grass with the tractor etc.
  Our daughter Rhône likes to make all kinds of handcrafted things, and she loves to dance.
  Im a life coach and my second job is carpentry. Im very handy, I build many things here on the land, from verandas, to decks to tiny houses.
  
  
  Jobs that need doing:
  On our there is a lot to discover and to do, gardening, pruning, making raised beds, but also some maybe some carpentry work
  Also we need to make some paths on the land. Cutting gras, and repairing the greenhouse in the veggie garden, building a roof for the bikes, improving the swing, you name it, there is always a job that needs doing. And after a few hours of work, you can take a plunge in the lake.
  
  
  Area:
  This Area, Aljezur, Odeceixe, is great for surfing, swimming, hiking and cycling.
  The beautiful nature and nice markets and cafe's make this the perfect spot to enjoy the sun all summer. Actually, all year the weather is nice.
