Hello from Portugal!

Hello!

We are a family of 3 living in the north of Portugal, Douro region, at a 15,000m2 farm.

I´m Diniz aka Crazy Farmer, Sílvia aka Camera Girl and Gabriel aka Mogli and we are trying to achieve self sufficiency at our farm.

If you want to know more about us check this link for a little video.

Hope we can learn a lot from you, and i will share my success and mistakes(they have been the main source of my learning process

).

Nazaré is a very old typical fisher village. Great food if you enjoy fish and sea food.
Also a very inexpensive place for holydays .

In recent years has become world known by having some of the biggest waves in the world.
Surf community love it.

In a prior life, but I was nowhere near good enough to handle those monsters. It would still be fun just to watch.

I´m writing my first post and guess what? It´s about the green red wine that we make at our farm.
Hope to post it today.

And by the way, we have a lot of trees.

10.000m2 is farming area and 5.000m2 is forest.
