Hi my name is Bruno, iam 42 year old, portuguese.I am a natural resources and environment engineer, and have a master's degree in agri-environmental management. Also a specialization in aromatic and medicinal plants. I have worked in research in Spain, but I returned to Portugal a few years. I currently teach Rural and Environmental Tourism, and work in rural registration. Some weekends I work as a cook on an event farm (vegan cuisine). I would like to dedicate myself only to our farm but at the moment it is not possible economically. I am a person open to new experiences, multicultural and very traveled. I have a lot of experience in international projects and have lived in several countries in Europe.
My partner is Rodrigo. Is Brazilian, from São Paulo, 30 years Old.She has a background in human resources and currently works as a receptionist in a rural hotel. Loves animals we have dogs, cats and birds. Gardening and decoration are also qualities that it has.
Country life has been difficult for him because it was a big shock to come from a city as big as Sao Paulo to a place with 11 inhabitants .... It is important for us to receive other people from other parts of the world ....
Rodrigo wants to learn English, so an English speaker is an added advantage.
