Hello there, I'm looking for travellers, nature lovers, people interested in permaculture and a different way of living. I'm Erik, class '88, I live in northern Italy where I've been building a permaculture project for the last few years. I've always been a dreamer, a wanderer seeking adventure and a deeper connection with Nature. After few years of working and travelling the world I decided to start this other journey here 1,5 hours drive from my birth place. As a sensitive person, Healing is a good portion of what drove this life choice into being, as I find it more gentle and sustainable for ourselves and the environment. On a more practical note, the land for now is taken care of for self sufficiency and not as a businness. I can offer food and accomodation in exchange of 3/4 hours of work, 5 days a week.. Most jobs are to do with the garden and the orchard, from planting out vegetables, tree planting, weeding, spreading compost, wood chipping, mulching, all depending on the tim...

Dear Friendly People, My name is Böbe and I'm a Dutch and English speaking Hungarian teacher. I moved from Hungary to Spain with my 2 dogs and 5 cats on the 23rd May, 2025. Forever. One of my cats passed away on the 21st April, 2026. He was 14 years old. I left my home country because without helpers I couldn't manage that big farm of 1.5 Ha. In place of that ranch I bought 2 small apartments for renting, while we're living about 20km from those properties. I'm living in a very peaceful area of San Miguel de Salinas, in Geir's house in "Los Comunicationes". Almost nothing to do if you want to find entertaining. The main part of San Miguel de Salinas is about 2.5 km. I find a way to do activities: I walk at least 5km a day with my dogs in the forest nearby. And sometimes walk to a castle- restaurant about 2.5 km far from home. We can offer: an independent apartment on the ground floor. If the weather is good, swimming in the pool - nowadays the water is 28 degrees! I can tea...

Hi, my name is Sylvia and I'm Dutch. After having lived for the majority of my life in cities I wanted to roam around with Helpx, so I did. However, I fell in love with the first place where I stayed, many years ago. A very small rural village in Bavaria, Germany, at the Czech border. I rented the huge house and intend to stay here, with my little dog, for the rest of my life. It’s a beautiful hilly area and the forests invite for long walks in which you may spot deer, lynxes, boars and other animals.

Nous sommes Pierre-yves et Paul, deux hommes gay. Nous habitons dans le sud ouest de la France, dans le très joli département de la Dordogne. Nous sommes horticulteurs. Nous vivons avec nos deux chats dans notre vieille ferme construite il y a plus de 200 ans. C'est un endroit paisible de la campagne française, à proximité d'un tout petit village. Les commerces et les villes ne sont pas très loin. Notre village s'appel Verteillac, il est situé à proximité de Ribérac. Notre vie tourne principalement autour des travaux en extérieur et par tous les temps. Nous exploitons une pépinière à domicile, ce qui nous laisse peu de temps libre pour entretenir la maison et le jardin. Nos projets incluent donc le jardinage, le désherbage, le défrichage autour de la maison et parfois la maintenance des bâtiments. Les travaux peuvent varier selon la saison. C'est un réel plaisir pour nous de partager toutes ces taches avec des personnes motivées, énergiques et qui apprécies la sérénité de notre styl...

Looking for an all round handyman/gardener who can help me complete the renovations on my property. All major 'building works' are complete, but walls still need painting, cupboards and shelves installing etc....it's currently a blank canvas. There's a very large garden, now overgrown with weeds, and I've totally run out of inspiration. There's so much potential, so someone with an eye for design, landscaping, garden maintenance, and basic carpentry skills to build a decking area would be highly desirable. In exchange I'm offering accommodation with shower room, food and Wi-Fi, and use of a bicycle. The small town (village style), is peaceful and quiet but with a fantastic thermal baths facility, gym and olympic size indoor pool. For nature lovers, there's a buffalo reservation with a lookout on the lake for wildlife and bird watching, hiking/walking and bicycle trails.

You'll love being in contact with vibrant nature, immersed in the jungle. You'll learn how to plant fruit trees, harvest, clear the land, and select fertile soil. We are creating a horse sanctuary on rural land far from the city. The work will be hard and intense, but rewarding and loving, as we aim to give back to the horses who live here a small part of what this species has given to humanity through work, effort, and unconditional love. We always try to work as a team to advance further. The tasks are simple and achievable by anyone with interest and focus. The most important part of our work relates to emotional healing through horse-assisted therapy, wonderful beings whom you'll have the opportunity to observe from a different perspective. In this place, these beautiful animals are not ridden; all the work we do with them is done on foot. If you're interested in delving deeper into their world and learning more about this wild species in its natural habitat, we recommend staying...

Simon and Sylvie live in a big house in the suburbs of Toulouse, with a small garden. UPDATE: We still have room for one more helper ... In the month of July we will be doing some fairly technical painting work (ceilings, doors etc) and some insulation work involving wood, nails and hammers. We will also be fixing up old bicycles. We`re looking for two friends or a couple to stay with us for 10 days or so in July. In exchange for 4 hours a day doing these tasks we shall put you up and feed you with good French cuisine. We can put helpers up in the attic apartment - an independent flat designed, constructed and decorated by helpers past. There is a lot to see in Toulouse and we`re only a few minutes from the nearest metro station into town ... and the brand-new téléphérique to nowhere. Helpers often find that a week in a big French city is welcome relief after weeks out in the sticks with no night-life, cafés or young people around. Toulouse has all this ... and more! Franco-...

We are a small, newly established hobby farm with a big vision to create a world where the health and well-being of both people and the planet can flourish. Our motto is from little things big things grow! We are guided by the principles of permaculture – People Care, Earth Care and Fair Share. We acknowledge the Gunaikurnai people as traditional custodians of the land we live and work on. Our aim as temporary caretakers is to create a lifestyle that is slower, simpler, happier, more self-sufficient, and kinder to the planet, as a demonstration to others of what might be possible. This place is the home base for a counselling and eco-therapy mental health service, which works with nature to improve people’s health and well-being, and to promote healing and growth. We also have lots of big ideas and projects in the makings, as well as ongoing jobs. These include: - establishing an orchard - establishing permaculture gardens - building a new chicken house and run - growing 'Herbs f...
