Home sitting in the middle of nature in Abrunhosa-a-Velha, Portugal

  Descripción

  Hey hello, My name is Margon, I am Dutch and I live in Central Portugal. In 2024 I purchased a plot of land of 1 hectare near a small village, called Abrunhosa-a-Velha, in between Gouveia and Mangualde.
  
  I fell in love with this piece of land, mainly because of the view. I have great views over the Mondego valley, all the way to the Serra de Estrela mountains behind Gouveia town. I also like the land, because it is in de middle of nature and it is very quiet here. I live off-grid on the land, in my camper van. I have build an outdoor toilet and I get my electricity from a solar panel on my roof and I have a generator for cloudy days. I am planning to buy more solar panels to put on my land, but I am not that far yet.
  
  At the moment I am still clearing the land. I want to get rid of all the broom bushes and the brambles. I already started to plant some fruit trees and I want to make a vegetable garden. I would like to transform my land into a little paradise with many flowers and cute seating areas in shady places.

  The two villages where I live in between are quite small. It is nice to make stroll and speak some Portuguese with the local people. One village has a café with a mini-market and a post office.
  
  Living on my land can be a challenge, because I live off-grid. And it can also be an amazing adventure, being in the middle of nature, with singing birds all over the place.

  Ayuda

  In June and July I am planning to go to the Netherlands. For that period, I could use a land sitter, who would like to water my plants.

  Alojamiento

  I don't have a house on the land. I live in a camper myself, but my camper won't be here, when I am away.
  
  I prefer someone who is traveling around with his/her own camper. You are most welcome to park your camper on my land, when you come land sitting.
  
  I can offer a tent for someone, who doesn't have a camper van. I would recommend that you come with your own vehicle, because the closest supermarket is 8 kilometers away.

  Algo más...

  I live near the Serra da Estrela, which is a nice place to visit. You can drive towards the Torre (the highest peak of Portugal) or make a walk near Vale de Rossim. There are many river beaches to go to for a swim in summer.
  
  Gouveia and Mangualde are two towns where you can find bigger supermarkets, post offices, farmácias and pastelarias. In Chas de Tavares you will find a smaller supermarket and a laundry machine.
  
  I live nearby a train station called Gouveia gare. At the moment they are rebuilding the train tracks. On the internet I read that they will be finished at the end of March, from that time the train will ride again, between Guarda and Santa Comba Dao.

  If you have your own router/modem, you can work here perfectly. The internet connection is good. I also work fulltime, remotely from my land.

  Espacio para aparcar autocaravanas

  I have enough place for a camper van. I have an outdoor toilet and a generator for electricity. I can show you around in the area, where you can find drinking water and a hot shower (25 kilometers)
