Last 2026 Helper Week

This week, we’ll work together to make progress on the final projects around the house and share daily life at the Quinta: with time to pitch in, eat together, and enjoy some relaxing moments in between. This time, the focus is on two projects: We’ll build a cozy sitting area with a fireplace and paint the interior walls with limewash, a natural lime-based paint.

We’ll take care of your accommodations, vegetarian meals at the Quinta, and trips into town or to the beach. Your contribution is €4 per day. It’s especially important to us that we feel comfortable with one another, communicate openly, and have a wonderful time together.

If you’d like to join us, let’s start by getting to know each other during a short video call. There will also be time for you to ask any questions.
