O hostel tem uma estrutura muito boa, e está em meio a muita natureza. Ótimo para passar tardes na rede ouvindo os pássaros cantarem. A localização também é ótima, a menos de 5 minutos da praça principal da Vila de Velha Boipeba e 5 minutos da praia da barra, onde se pode ver um lindo pôr do sol. Ale e Flávio foram super acolhedores, ajudando no que precisava e com bastante flexibilidade. Ale é ótima para trocas e experiências sobre como viver de uma forma mais consciente e sustentável. A carga de trabalho também é tranquila. Boipeba em si é incrível. Recomendo muito!

If Leticia sends you an application to volunteer at your place, count your lucky stars and accept without thinking. I do not even know where to start describing what a wonderful experience we had with her. She is, foremost, an amazing human being and such a joy to be around. As our volunteer, she has only surpasted every expectation we ever had. She is very skilled in a wide range of things and even after 2 months she kept surprising us. Very proactive, responsible, someone you can really count on. Great cook, great mixologist, great host. She can run this place! Hope to have her back!

I had an amazing time at the coliving! The community vibe makes you feel like living in a big, diverse and very fun family. Joe and Jelena are great hosts, they run the place with exemplary organisation, love and care. They were always open to suggestions to make the work better. And the work itself is quite light and enjoyable, leaving you plenty of time to explore the area or work on your projects. The place is at an incredible spot, with stunning views of the snowy mountains and surrounded by history of the old town. It's really unique! can't recommend the coliving enough!

About me as an author

I'm fascinated by exploring the unknown and being in contact with diverse and open-minded people. Getting to know new cultures and places, and making connections with people that I could never meet if I was home has been a way of expanding my mind. It impacted the way I think and understand other people, myself, and the world itself. I've been on a nomadic journey since 2016. A journey that made me shift my perception of what I want for my future. My daily exercise has been trusting the natural flow of things (even though it's challenging sometimes!). And most importantly, having a good time with the people around me 😊 I am vegan 🌿 and love to cook! Yoga and meditation are two things that help me keep my mind at peace (most of the time haha) 🧘🏽‍♀️🙂 I am a beach person 🏖️ but I also love hikes in the mountains and camping ⛰️🏕️. I am a city person too: love hanging out at bars, street concerts, museums, parks, etc. 🏙️🎶🎷 I would say I'm a little bit of a lot of things, why not? 😊
