My volunteering experience with Paulo was very positive. I had the chance to help with different tasks like cleaning, gardening, taking care of the animals, and general maintenance. The environment is familiar and welcoming — Paulo treats you like family and appreciates when you're proactive and efficient. He's also very flexible and understanding; in my case, I had to leave earlier due to a job opportunity, and he fully supported my decision. I recommend this experience to anyone looking for a meaningful exchange, where you can contribute, learn, and feel at home.

My time at Paulo's farm was great, i only wish the weather had been better. Luckily we had a few sunny days in algarve while working on his boat. It is a bit of a journey to get into the centre of the farm but Paulo often goes to the city and may be able to offer a lift . Paulo is very friendly and welcoming, he expects you to work fast and be proactive. The work involved gardening, caring for chickens and rabbits, house repairs and cleaning. I was able to improve my Portuguese plenty which was my main goal :)

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!

Volunteering on this farm was a unique and nice experience, the nature around is beautiful, with planes flying above and the ocean in view — very peaceful and inspiring! Paulo is kind and positive. I really enjoyed our conversations on a variety of topics. The room was comfortable and the food was OK - though it could have been better considering the amount of physical work. Just keep in mind — the work is very physically demanding, It's clearly stated but it was even harder than I expected! I recommend this position only if you're in good shape and ready for really hard hard work!!!

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.

La experiencia en la granja fue increíble, Paulo fue muy atento y sociable, aprendí muchas cosas referente al tema, y el lugar es muy bonito y tranquilo. Si estás buscando algo fuera de la ciudad este es el lugar indicado, tiene una vista increíble y cerca hay un lugar para ver el atardecer. Tener muy en cuenta de leer la descripción del los trabajos que hay que hacer, todos son fáciles pero de fuerza, así que si vas no esperes que es un lugar para vacacionar, podrás tener tiempo después de las tareas así que está bien :D
