Hello there! We are two people (40 +/-) running a small farm in the south of Portugal (Alentejo). We moved here two years ago with the goal of being partly self-sufficient. We are off-grid with solar power and own water supply. If you like to live and work with sheep, chicken and dogs in a beautiful rural environment and if you are interested in organic gardening you are welcome to stay with us. If you love nature and a quiet lifestyle you will love it here, and - who knows - maybe you'll stay for good...
We prefer independent and mobile people. We are especially open for people who want to stay longterm. You are free to schedule your day/week as you wish. We offer workawayers free accommodation. For people who are looking for a longterm place to be, we offer accommodation and expect some help every now and then in return - this could be perfect for digital nomads, independent artists or early retirement people who want to stay in Portugal for good.
Currently we need carpenters, landscapers and people who can build.

Manutenção geral
Discover life in rural Portugal - the Alentejo region is still quite traditional (unlike the Algarve region, which by the way is not too far from here). You get a good impression on how people live and work in the south of Portugal apart from all the tourism hot spots. Also, if you love hiking or motorbiking this area will be a paradise for you.
You should be interested in farming and helping us putting up fences, cleansing the land from weeds and helping with the animals. From March on we need help in the veggie garden as well. Also, there's an outdoor kitchen area that needs further improvement. Every now and then we would be very happy if you could watch the farm for a day or two while we are not around :)

Este anfitrião oferece intercâmbio de idiomas
We want to improve our Portuguese and offer German in return. Also, Lena would love to learn Hebrew.
You can stay in our new 30m2 yurt which is located among olive trees near the veggie garden. Our house is on the hill and cannot be seen from your location. Alternatively, we can offer you a caravan near the house. If you are travelling with your own van or camper you can find your own spot on our property. There's a nice infrastructure for the yurt and van people - an outdoor-kitchen, a compost-toilet and a brand new shower-cabin.
Besides free accommodation we offer you dinner with us. We eat normal traditional food and sometimes vegetarian. If you need a special diet, you are free to prepare your own meals in the outdoor kitchen.
This region is perfect for nature loving people that enjoy a peace and quiet lifestyle. It's a great region for hiking and biking. Also, there are several smaller towns and villages to discover where you will find little shops, cafés and restaurants. You will find everything you need for daily life around 15 kms from here (Almodovar). The famous Algarve region is less than 1 hr car drive from here and you will find shopping malls, tourists attractions and nice beaches there.
