The Experience
I need somebody who is arty and creative who can help me create my art garden. I also need help to maintain the garden and possibly somebody who know something about construction in order to remove the roof from my wooden gazebo as it is deteriorating. I also have an art gallery and workshop on the first floor of my house where I want to organise workshops for people so any suggestions about arty and crafty things to make will be good

My experience at the home was amazing. Lynete is a great hostess, a strong and experienced woman with a big heart, I found a British mother in Portugal. She is a complete Artist, she paints, writes and sings. We had a lot of fun while doing the activities together. I had the pleasure of meeting your friends Linda, Helena and Wally, and especially the couple Paul and Maggie, two fantastic people, polite and fun, we had a great time touring the area. I hope I can come back soon to meet my new friends in the Algarve Thank you very much for everything Lynette.

A Lynette é uma pessoa muito amável. Inclusiva. Apresentou-me seus queridos amigos, que são pessoas incríveis também. Passei meu aniversário na companhia deles e os três fizeram o meu dias mais feliz. Sou grata por isso. Não me esquecerei. Minha única observação, e acredito que isso ela consiga ajustar, é que o colchão da cama é muito ruim, acordava com o corpo muito doído. Uma por conta do trabalho duro do dia anterior, outra porque não consegui descansar o corpo.Também o cobertor estava sujo, com cheiro ruim. A sorte é que tenho os meus. No geral, muito feliz com minha 1ª experiência. Recom
