Description
Nosso projeto foi construído com o apoio de pessoas e voluntários que se conectaram com nossa missão. Cada um que passa por aqui deixa um pouco de si e também aprende. Para manter essa troca viva, pedimos uma contribuição de R$ 175,00 por semana, que cobre sua alimentação e ajuda a fortalecer o projeto. Aqui, a experiência é uma via de mão dupla, onde todos crescem e colaboram juntos.

Projeto sensacional e impactante

Tive uma experiência linda no projeto. Aprendi sobre bioconstrução, agrofloresta e apicultura. Sobre consumo consciente e expansão de consciência. Pude viver em comunidade, compartindo o pão e boas ideias, aprendendo sobre mim mesma em relação a todos os seres humanos e não humanos que habitam este cerrado. Me conectei com a natureza, com o tempo da roça. Trabalhei bastante e foi recompensador, pelas trocas sinceras, os almoços coletivos, o tempo de descanso no rio, os banhos de rio e a poesia compartilhada. Desejo que mais pessoas possam ter essa experiência. Me sinto nutrida.

A experiência na the project foi sensacional! Tive todas as experiências que esperava, plantei, pisei o barro, tive minha primeira experiência com bioconstrução. A the project também oferece passeios na região, fiz um que cobria Diamantina e Biribiri que ainda não conhecia, e ainda conheci a cachoeira dos vaqueiros que é aqui do lado. Me conectei com a natureza e mexi na terra, aprendi várias receitas e dei várias risadas. Obrigada a todos que fizeram parte dessa experiência, André, Isa, Carmen, Jaime e Raphael. Aqui você vai dar muita risada enquanto aprende e vai ser muito feliz! :)

Todos os objetivos de aprendizagem listados no Worldpacker são absolutamente atualizados neste projeto. Aprendi bastante coisas e realmente tive uma troca cultural, espiritual e impactante enriquecedora com as pessoas neste projeto. Embora esta experiência tenha sido uma oportunidade intensa e expansiva para crescimento e cura, não foi perfeita. Para a saúde e integridade do projeto, acho que é importantíssimo Raphael superar conflitos e problemas interpessoais de uma forma mais produtiva e mais alinhada com a proposta do projeto. No entanto, tantas lições e troca de conhecimento! Agradeço!!

Experiência incrível, tive contato com a natureza e isso era o que precisava para reduzir e desacelerar minha vida. Exatamente o que estava precisando. Agradeço pela oportunidade em um ambiente incrível.
