Tania is an incredibly warm, friendly and welcoming person! She is funny, sociable, fascinating and has a wonderful sense of humor. She made my stay truly special, full of laughter and great experiences. Tania has impressive knowledge of construction and renovation and is always happy to explain and teach. She also loves cooking traditional Portuguese dishes, giving you a wonderful insight into the local culture. If you enjoy helping, laughing and a family-like atmosphere while still having time for yourself, this is the perfect place. Absolutely worth it! Highly recommended! ❤️

I didn't expect this experience to surprise me so much. Tania always makes you feel like part of the family and takes you to plenty of places to explore the surroundings. She really makes sure you feel comfortable, is always there for anything you might need, and she's so funny, I had so much fun! The tasks are simple; for example, I washed dishes, did some gardening, and painted walls. Thank you for hosting me, Tania!

This experience was incredible. I've never been so welcomed into a family like it's my own. Tania and her daughter are amazing and beautiful people who care so deeply about making sure you feel cared for and included. I don't think I have words to describe how this experience left me feeling fuller than before.

Tânia is such a kind and generous person and I felt part of the family while I was there! The work was very fair and fit the description provided. The grove is a beautiful place to set up a hammock and chill for a bit, the beach is nearby and it has everything needed.

Tânia is such a kind and generous person. Staying with her was absolutely amazing and I felt welcomed at every turn. It was like I was taken in by her and her family for the two weeks I was there, and I loved every moment of it. I was able to learn some Portuguese and about the culture as she gave information about different places we saw. She was always respectful of my time and space. The work was very fair and fit the description she provided. The grove is a beautiful plave to set up a hammock and chill for a bit. I can't wait to go back again and see Tânia, her family, and the grove again!
