After a relaxing week at Roberta’s place, I was off to the airport for my flight to Barcelona. The party at the Olive Farm. Julie and Kaveh invited a few more friends from all over the place and all the local friends they have. Took the train to the airport and checked my big bag at the counter.<\/p>\n

The Olive Farm<\/h1>\n

Julie and Kaveh took over an Olive Farm a year ago. The farm was abandoned for a few years. The house was destroyed. There is no electricity and no running water. They renovated the house, installed a water reservoir, and solar panels. After that, Kaveh started to clear the jungle and cut the Olive trees. The land is so big that he still does not know how many trees he has. The plan for 2018 is to clear the rest of the vegetation around the trees in the far south of the property.<\/p>\n
