🌴🛠️ Help Build a Coliving Space in Salvador, Bahia


The experience

Living here means experiencing Rio Vermelho at its best. The house is located right in front of a beautiful park, offering fresh air, greenery, and a peaceful place to relax, while still being steps away from one of Salvador’s most lively neighborhoods. Rio Vermelho is known for its Afro-Brazilian culture, music, art, beaches, and incredible food scene. From local markets and cafés to famous street food like acarajé! 🌊🎶✨
