Quinta São Bento Tapou

I speak English, German and Dutch. I live off-grid and I have hot shower and solar power. There are rooms and a caravan to stay. There is water and electricity available if you come with a camper.
I traveled a lot in India and other interesting counties, I am interested in different cultures, music, and sustainable building and meeting like-minded people.
In case you'll arrive with public transport, I'll pick you up in Portalegre.

Besides working on the land and homeschooling my two young daughters every other week, I work a few hours online as a coach and psychologist and build yurts and domes once in a while.

Mi experiencia fue muy buena. Me sentí como parte de la familia. Paul es amable, respetuoso y paciente, siempre pendiente de que te sientas a gusto y no trabajes demasiado😅 además que cocina muy rico (de vez en cuando te pregunta si quieres cocinar). La casa está a una hora caminando del pueblo asi que de cierta forma dependes de que Paul te lleve si quieres visitar, los vecinos están a 5 minutos de distancia, así que solo son Paul y tú (sus niñas vienen cada semana) o si acaso algún otro voluntario. Si no eres muy solitario este no es tu lugar; si lo eres, te va a encantar la paz que hay.

I really enjoyed staying here. Paul is a really nice guy,I couldn’t ask for better.
Also the place was amazing too, surrounded by nature with a fantastic river nearby.

I had a beautiful and fun week at Paul's place, which is surrounded by nature and a little river. Paul is a host, that makes an effort for you to feel welcomed and at home. The work I did was mostly in the garden and maintenance around the house. After that there was plenty of time to relax, sit together and eat. I really enjoyed bering around his daughters as well as the other volunteers and friends. Everday there was fresh cooked food and even though I stayed in the caravan I felt overall very comfortable. Also, there was always good music! :) Thanks Paul, for the time and conversations!
