  Descrição

  If you have plumber skills and can help us before the yoga retreat that starts on the 22nd of September 2025 to change some taps, repair leaks, a toilet, a sink, etc. we welcome you with open arms! Professional plumbers are not easy to find in the area but we will hire them also.
  
  Eric and Joëlle are from Belgium and are creating this Association and Cooperative. For the moment we have a communal house with 2 sleeping rooms available for workawayers and visitors, a bathroom, 2 toilets, a big (8m) yurt for activities and a smaller (6m) yurt for visitors. We developed already two big vegetable gardens and a food forest, and we are self-sufficient in vegetables and fruit. Our aim is to co-create a co-living space for +/-8 people and a place where people can come for instance for retreats or workshops. A little bit of help is always welcome to maintain the garden, refreshing the house, preparing a chicken run, cut trees, make firewood, wood chips and make (artistic) improvements on the land.
  You can experience co-living with communal activities such as lunching together, making a trip to swim in the beautiful river nearby, going to the local market together or doing some yoga, singing or dancing together in the beautiful big yurt. We love spending time together and share and learn from each other. We try to provide the space for each needs and welcome the gifts each can bring. We welcome diversity, freedom of expression and practice inclusiveness.
  The area is known for their beautiful paths for nature lovers, to walk. There are nice river beaches around the area, and Coimbra, with one of the oldest university’s in Europe, is about 45 minutes from our place.
  We prefer longer to shorter stays. From 1 to 2 months, eventually three. Minimum stay is two weeks. We like in advance to meet by video-call.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We are happy to teach you the principles of permaculture gardening. How we observe the earth, how we make it fertile, planting, harvesting, collecting seeds, grafting fruit trees, etc... We also want to share how we make our own bread and jams (figs, kaki, lemon, oranges, apples, peers, ...), cans and chutneys. How to preserve vegetables for the winter, for instance by fermentation or drying.
  If people are interested to do some yoga, singing or dancing together, it is possible with Joëlle.

  Acomodação

  We have some rooms with beds and a tent is also available. There is a big parking for a camper van if needed.
  There is good Wi-Fi connection in the living room, kitchen, bedrooms and the terrace.
  Use of the kitchen whenever you need! We provide food for 3 meals a day, vegetarian and also possible vegan, gluten-free or lactose free. Almost 100% organic food. Fruit and veggies are from the garden.
  We're choosing for local and seasonal fruit and vegetables, and are not providing fresh imported food like bananas.
  Minimizing and recycling your waste is required. Making for instance your own oat milk, granola or bread avoids unnecessary waste and/or transport and is much more tasty than industrial food. This requires for some people to change their daily food habits.

  Algo mais...

  We are located between Goïs and Arganil, in very small village in the middle of nature and 1.5km from a splendid river beach. Ideal for Nature-lovers. There's also a nice place to swim and dive at 300m, with a breathtaking view.
