Biography
My wife and I are two South Africans who have been creating our dream fruit forest/permaculture garden in a rural part of Bali, over the past 2.5 years. With no prior experience or knowledge of permaculture or growing fruit, we have learnt a heap through learning as we grow!

Hello Mina Jasmina, is this opportunity still available this summer? We are very interested to speak with you about the possibilities…

We are temporarily needing to leave our Bali-based fruit forest/permaculture garden for 4-6 months. Due to  the timeframe, we are wanting to lease  our beloved tropical homestead to a like-frequency individual/s; who values a simple, slow and natural lifestyle.

Located in a rural part of Bali, at the base of Volcano Batukaru, the land is abundant with mature fruit trees, including durian and mangosteen, as well as other edibles  such as papayas, bananas, pineapples, passion fruits and sugarcane.

The basic structures on the land include a simple 5 x 5 dwelling (indoor-outdoor living),
with a loft sleeping arrangement, very basic kitchen (for us who mostly eat fruits), and an outdoor bathroom, with a squat toilet. A Balinese-style gazebo, overlooking newly made Natural Pool, functions  as our main living space, when the weather is good. Also included is our Local gardener, who takes care of maintenance on the land, 5 mornings per week.

Life in this part of Bali is slow, quiet, more rural, surrounded by nature and with more moderate conditions (compared to other parts of the island), due to a slightly higher altitude.

If this lifestyle sounds like something you have been dreaming about experiencing (as we were before jumping into the deep end, to create our dream), then we would love to hear from you, to establish whether we have a comfy fit! We are asking $800 per month for the leasing of our 7000 square meter homestead.
