I volunteered here for almost 3 weeks and can't wait to return one day. There's a very special energy here at this site and you can immediately feel how much effort and care has gone into. The beautiful house felt like a home while I was there, and Vico was so helpful in teaching us about his crops as well as the surrounding rainforest. The work felt relaxed, flexible and collaborative and was really satisfying to see the finished results. The valley itself with its stunning waterfalls 10 minutes from the house was beautiful just on its own. I'd recommend to anyone wanting meaningful experienc

Vicente me acolheu de última hora, após eu desistir de outro voluntariado onde tive problemas. Foi muito disponível, me proporcionou contato com tarefas variadas, me orientando sobre o como e o porquê de cada uma. Também foi receptivo às minhas sugestões. Tive contato com bioconstrução, organização da comunidade, preparação e manejo de canteiros, podas, restauração, limpeza e organização do sítio, reconhecimento de inúmeras espécies vegetais, também aprendi sobre permacultura. Tive contato com várias pessoas com vivências relacionadas a um viver mais sustentável e natural. Só tenho a agrad

Estar voluntariando no projeto com o Vicente como líder e anfitrião foi uma experiência incrível de aprendizado e conexão. Desde o início me senti em casa, acolhido como parte de uma família.Vicente nos ensinou sobre Bio construção e as suas técnicas de sustentabilidade!A energia do lugar é realmente diferente , a natureza muito linda com caichoeiras de tirar o fôlego.Um lugar cheio de harmonia, respeito e contato com a natureza. Vicente faz tudo com amor, atenção e generosidade, criando um ambiente onde é fácil crescer, compartilhar e viver com propósito.saio daki com gratidão!

Realmente vivi o propósito do sítio durante a minha experiência. Aprendi demais sobre bioconstrução, agrofloresta e permacultura. O Vico foi um ótimo anfitrião e professor. Tive a oportunidade de participar de uma oficina de bioconstrução incrível em que aprendi um monte e conheci uma galera bem massa. Sem falar em toda a natureza exuberante do sítio. Realmente uma imersão na Mata Atlântica e na cultura gaucha. Gratidão eterna!

O sítio busca proporcionar sua coexistência em equilíbrio e respeito a natureza. Desse modo os voluntários tem a oportunidade de aprender de forma prática sobre Bio-construção, Agrofloresta entre outras práticas sustentáveis. O vale da forqueta (região do projeto) em si já é um lugar muito rico, cercado de rios, cachoeiras e MUITA floresta. Mas o que realmente realmente deixa esse lugar especial são os hosts Vico e Dani que em todo momento buscaram nos ensinar e acolher como família. Recomendo o projeto pra todos do Woldplackers e um dia desejo voltar para esse lugar querido!
