LONG TERM POSITION BUT POSSIBLE TO COME FOR A ONE WEEK IN JUNE OR JULY
Hello future guest !
I am Anaïs, queer artist and therapist living A VERY SIMPLE LIFE in the countryside, on a beautiful 7ha land, in South Portugal, in Alentejo, (between Colos and Cercal).
After 4 years on the land, I will partly move to another region for my kids to go to a better secondary school. So I am looking for 1 or 2 long-term trustworthy conscious beings to take care of the land while I am away. My plan is to be on the land a few days every other week. So most of the time you will be on your own.
Life here is totally off-grid, in the deep countryside. At night, there are foxes, owls and wild pigs. During the day with see red kites and hawks.
There are beautiful trails to walk around the land. 30 minutes drive from the ocean (Vila Nova de Milfontes). If you have a car or at least a bike it's better for you as we are quite isolated (no bus).
The tasks are :
============
SUMMER (JUNE - SEPTEMBER) :
- to feed the cats Loukoum, Mitsu and Miaoui when I am not here
- to water and the take care of young trees (put straw around them)
- to cut the grass
- to oil the wooden structures of the land
- to help repair or upgrade the infrastructures on the land
AUTUMN & WINTER :
- to feed the cats
- to harvest figs, pears and olives, and process them.
- to plant trees (november to january)
- to dig pipes in the ground
- create a food garden. If you have permaculture/syntropy knowledges, that's great !
- to help repair or upgrade the infrastructures on the land
SPRING (MARCH/APRIL) :
- to feed the cats
- take care of the food garden.
- to help repair or upgrade the infrastructures on the land
ALL THE TIME :
- to feed the cats :) and care for them
- to help me with sorting out / tidying up things (decluttering).
====================================
I am are flexi-vegan &non-smoker.
I wish to welcome an enthusiast dancer or artist, preferably womxn identifying or non-binary, conscious of their energy outputs on the land and with the people around them, connected to Nature, to Spirit in all forms and to their intuition.
If you have a car or at least a bike it's better for you as we are quite isolated.
Happy to meet you soon !
