The Experience
Por aqui, estamos tentando recuperar o solo, melhorando a biodiversidade no terreno. Precisamos de uma ou duas maozinhas para nos ajudar. Como é uma regiao mais isolada acreditamos que casais ou duplas de amigos ficarao mais felizes, mas nada impede de se candidatar se voce viaja sozinho. A maior parte das atividade é no nosso jardim, tais como: molhar as plantas, cobrir o solo, adubar podar, fazer mudas. Estamos abertos a te ensinar

During our stay we helped Leticia and Valerian at their properties around Lagoa the project. We helped finish up the construction of two houses and worked on things like, wiring, trim work, digging trenches for water pipes, and various finishing touches to the spaces (hanging curtain rods, painting light fixtures, etc.) We learned a lot from them that we will be able to use in the future when we build our own house! We worked the agreed upon hours that are listed on Worldpackers and they brought us to different spots in the region including their posada in Jericoacoara. 10/10 Amazing!

Sem palavras para essa experiência na lagoa o projeto! aprendi muito sobre cuidados com a biodiversidade local e sobre técnicas de manutenção. espaço amplo, lindo, sustentável, pacífico e muito rico! de frente ao o projeto, possui internet, quarto privativo com fogão e frigobar. distante da cidade, portanto, a imersão com a natureza é intensa e perfeita! os anfitriões são um casal maravilhosamente acolhedores e flexíveis, possuidores de excelentes ideias de cuidado do solo, ar e natureza em geral! também tem a princesinha que se chama Belinha e é uma shitzu muito dócil e fofuxa! gratidão máxima!

Ótimos anfitriões. Tivemos uma casinha privada super confortável e equipada. As tarefas diárias são bem tranquilas e é possível cumprir as horas nos horários que quiser. Compartilhamos algumas refeições juntos, nos levaram de barco a um restaurante do outro lado do rio, em um dos dias livres nos levaram de tour nas dunas e no buraco azul do Corguinho. Tem dois caiaques disponíveis e também um laguinho delicia pra nadar. Letícia e Valerian são pessoas maravilhosas, com consciência ambiental e social (possuem um projeto de aulas de inglês gratis pro pessoal da comunidade). Amei conhecê-los 💚

Com certeza, recomendo! A Letícia, o Valerian e a Belinha são uns fofos, me acolheram muito bem. O lugar é confortável e com uma beleza natural incrível (por do sol maravilhoso! 😍). Tem caiaque disponível para os voluntários e o povo da vila é bem tranquilo e hospitaleiro. As tarefas são simples (principalmente regar o jardim) e bem orientadas. Além disso, dá pra ir visitar Jeri às vezes com os anfitriões. Gratidão demais, Letícia, Valerian e Belinha. Vocês são uma família linda! ❤
