I live there with my 85 year old mother. The property is an Orchard of orange and clementines mostly . I am using permaculture principles. I am now designing and digging my vegetable beds and landscaping the property.
In the morning I wake up and have my coffee and go on the land.
- Now I am digging my vegetable beds and prepping to create a soil base as the land is sand only
- depending on the season I prune, clean weeds, and work on infrastructure with the help of a contractor.
I have a 3 guests rooms. one room Bathroom and kitchen is shared. 2 other rooms have their own bathrooms. I prepare home cook meals.
I love to cook homemade meals and will be very satisfied once I can plant all my vegetables.
There a small beach about 8 min drive to the house. The property is in a rural area but we are near Lisbon accessible but bus or train. I also have a car. I do not always stay on the property. I like to go to the beach and explore the area. for now to make money I babysit dogs in their homes. The cost of living here is pretty affordable. I have joined a couple of expats groups and participates in different events. There is always something happening here
Je suis américaine et française. Je suis ne aux États Unis mais j'ai grandi dans le centre de la France. Je parle espagnol couramment. Pas aussi bien que mon français. Je commence tout juste a apprendre le portugais. Ma propriété est un projet qui démarre tout juste.
