Recomendo muito! O sítio é um lugar lindo e me senti abraçado pela Mata Atlântica, todo dia eu tomava banho no rio e apreciava as montanhas e a natureza. Tudo lá é feito com os princípios da sustentabilidade, técnicas de bioconstrução e permacultura. Vicente foi muito receptivo e fez eu me sentir em casa. Além disso ele é um ótimo professor, tem formações em ecologia e pude aprender com ele muito mais do que eu podia imaginar. Também participei de uma oficina de bioconstrução e pude conhecer muitas pessoas legais, a proposta do sítio ser uma escola traz muitas possibilidades de aprendizado.

O projeto é um local incrível de imersão na mata atlântica, que nos convida a refletir sobre todos os níveis de relações, com nós mesmos, com os outros seres e com os espaços que frequentamos. É um ambiente de muita troca e aprendizados. Vicente tem uma linguagem muito didática e não mede esforços para transformar o sítio em uma escola de sustentabilidade. Fui muito bem recebida e acolhida. O local é simples (o que também faz parte da proposta), mas oferece os recursos necessários para que a estadia seja confortável. A beleza e diversidade do local é realmente impressionante.

O projeto é um verdadeiro exemplo sobre sustentabilidade. Participar do multirão da bioconstrução me fez aprender bastante sobre a forma, o modo e a importância sobre construir menos impacto e ver o quanto de coisas valiosas tem em nossa volta que pode ser usada. Vicente é uma pessoa incrível com muito conhecimento e envolvimento na educação ambiental.
