I had a wonderful experience with Emmanuel, Juliana and Kauê (and the wild and sweet Maya🐾)! It was a wonderful experience to be part of this family and to live in this sustainable and lovely house. I loved having the possibilities to create there and to share creativity and activities to decorate this home. They are very interesting people that brought me a lot. I learnt a lot about myself and the world thanks to the exchanges, the conversations and the practices. Thank you for the love !!! 🌞

Alicia was very interested in learning new things and became like a big sister for Kaue. We are grateful for all the beautiful painted bottles, the many "ojos de dios" and many other wonderful things she made with Kaue.

Solène is hardworking and responsible and we loved having her in our family. Kaue loved being around her and loved her wonderful cooking.

Volunteering at the home means to live with a family, its habits and delicate moments. You'll have a lot of freedom on how and when to do things but communication and setting boundaries are very needed. For me it was not a problem, but an opportunity to learn. Your main tasks will be working as an educator and preparing daily meals, while you'll get to know an interesting, international, funny and BRAVE family, open to new ideas, spiritual, patient and respectful of diversity. If you like music and nature you'll learn and enjoy many things! It's also a great chance to learn Portuguese!

Elisa supported our family life with a lot of dedication and we enjoyed having her around. She is very social and we are glad she got in touch with permaculture which hopefully will stay present in her life.

Manu's home is a truly magical place. From day one we felt at home and we especially enjoyed the warm welcome from Maya (🐶). We had a lot of freedom with our working hours and the work was at times physical but mostly fun. He often joined us and we knew what needed to be done. However, a few words of appreciation for our efforts would have been nice. Same goes for the cooking. It was agreed upon that we'd do the majority of the cooking outside of the working hours. That's why we'd have appreciated a little bit more of recognition. Overall we enjoyed our time at the home and recommend it. :)

The home is an incredible place and Emmanuel is an amazing individual. I felt at home at once, appreciating the thought that has been put into the home and how it co-evolves with nature. It was refreshing to experience the autonomy and responsibility given to volunteers by Emmanuel to design and create things for his home. The weekly sessions on regenerative thinking and design are insightful and bring new perspectives. There was so much to learn and one month was not long enough to take it all in! I would highly highly recommend a stay in this idyllic home.
