The Experience
You'll find yourself split between the calm of the countryside and the lively atmosphere of Lisbon. On the farm, we're creating a peaceful, sustainable space where we can grow our own food and eventually host guests or even run retreats focused on yoga, tantra,personal development. In the city, there's a boat that needs some TLC—cleaning, repairs, and maybe even a little sailing fun. Whether we're working on the farm, fixing up the boat!

Paulo is a dedicated, caring and fun host on his farm. The work is varied, with challenging and easy tasks. You will learn about plant care and planting. Tasks: painting, preparing soil, feeding chickens, cooking, cleaning, etc. The farm is about an hour from the farm, accessible by public transport (with a bit of walking). Paulo sometimes travels to the farm and can take you/bring you back (confirm). He values proactivity and communication. You will be in a familiar environment and learn a lot about the country and rural life. I highly recommend this experience!

If you want to volunteer somewhere that checks all the boxes while providing a good learning - socialising - exploring environment, apply with Paulo, a great man with a good wisdom and ability at his home.

My stay at Paulo's farm lasted 20 days; the house is a small ruin on top of a mountain with a beautiful view of the Tejo and the farm, perfect for those who want to get away from city noise and relax. Paulo is very kind and attentive to the work; he is trying to fix up the house and create a pleasant and welcoming place in the nature. For those who want to experience the city a bit, Paulo sometimes makes himself available to accompany you. Paulo owns two sailboats, and we spent a few days cleaning and repairing one of them right at the port of Belém the farm, which is great for sea/boat lovers

I do not recommend it at all. It was the worst experience of my entire life. It was so bad that I don't even want to remember or write about it.
