Hi, my name is Rui, �I am developing an off-grid living experience project and need help with lots of different projects. I am looking to grow food, trees, herbs etc. with soil regeneration and sustainability in mind and a Recycle reuse repurpose less waste policy. I believe in protecting and preserving nature for future generations and believe that this starts with living more simply.
I live in the eastern region of the Algarve, I am situated in a beautiful quiet peaceful natural valley close to small hamlet.
This is quintessentially rural Portugal, close to the beautiful coastline with Faro at its heart.
This destination is a lesser-explored and relatively untouched part of the Algarve, see what Portugal has to offer with its rolling hills, salt pans, quaint towns and villages and natural spots such as lakes, waterfalls, and river pools. � �I moved here from England a few years ago with a small budget to buy a piece of land here in Portugal and begin living more simply.
The journey has been challenging, and since the pandemic we have come up against some significant difficulties, however, I have persevered and managed to start to cultivate what the land has to offer whilst building eco facilities to attach to my Yurt and Tipi.
I have a background in building and artisanship and intend on creating earth-ship-style buildings using tires and soil, which is one of the projects I am looking for help with. I would also like to enlist the help of volunteers on is the management of the land- the gardening in particular.
