The Experience

Estamos em uma fase muito inicial do nosso projeto. Portanto, precisamos de pessoas que nos ajudem a construí-lo. Usaremos bioconstrução e técnicas regulares para construir cabanas, estufas, cercas, barracões, banheiros e qualquer outra edificação. Procuramos sempre tornar essas tarefas muito prazerosas e produtivas. Temos algumas edificações utilizando super adobe, cob, enxaimel e madeira.

One of the best volunteering experiences I'he had. Bianca is the best host, sooo welcoming, friendly, understanding and funny! It felt like home. We had everything we needed: nice place to sleep, food, WiFi and amazing company of Bianca, her family and 3 cutest dogs. We've done a hike, went to the city together and cooked Brazilian food. It was a pleasure to help Bianca around the property and I really hope to come back one day. Definitely recommend to come!

My time at the projectwas just wonderful and I am sooo happy that I got an opportunity to volunteer there. The place is absolutely special and I got to see Brazil from another perspective and fell in love with it completely. The volunteering itself is great, Bianca is so attentive and makes sure you have fun and enjoy. The house we lived in and the area around and just enchanting. I loved this experience and I definitely want to come back when I am in Brazil. Highly recommend!!

O projetosimplesmente ganhou meu coração! Bianca é uma ótima anfitriã, muito alto astral, querida e acolhedora! O sítio é lindo, um espaço muito gostoso, rodeado de montanhas e próximo de uma cachoeira mto legal! Os horários de trabalho são bem organizados e ocorrem durante a manhã, então temos o restante do dia inteiro para desfrutar. Além disso tive a oportunidade de fazer amizade com outros 3 voluntários, sendo que 2 deles eram gregos, e pude praticar o meu inglês tbm… Vou levar lindas lembranças dessas 2 semanas que passei lá, e espero voltar em breve para contribuir ainda mais! Gratidão 💛

En el proyetopasé una experiencia buenísima, lo recomiendo! Bianca es una anfitriona muy amable, siempre trabajó con nosotros escuchando ideas y en un ambiente flexible. Se respetaban las horas de trabajo, había una gran variedad de ingredientes y apertura a la hora de cocinar, también el hospedaje era muy cómodo. Hicimos bioconstrucción con una técnica de earthbags que me gustó aprender. Los perros son amorosos y las gallinas fáciles de cuidar. Hermoso paisaje, dio para conocer vistas y cascadas. Gracias!
