Gostaria de expressar minha imensa gratidão ao João, a Inês e ao Thierry pela hospitalidade que me foi oferecida durante minha estadia em sua casa. Fiquei verdadeiramente tocado pela maneira como fui recebido e cuidado, cada refeição compartilhada e cada momento de convivência contribuíram para enriquecer minha experiência e criar memórias que levarei para sempre. Agradeço por abrir as portas de sua casa e por me acolher com tanto carinho. Abraço aos demais da região.

El mejor voluntariado que he hecho hasta ahora! Antes de confirmar tu estadía: te proporcionan un documento con más tareas a desarrollar, normas, números de contacto, horarios, formas de llegar y te incluyen a la comunidad para que puedas preguntarle a anteriores voluntarios. Durante: te comunican todo con claridad, respetan los tiempos acordados, te hacen sentir como en casa, te enseñan sobre la cultura y te diviertes mucho haciendo las tareas con Tony haha. Incluso en mi último día fueron amables, encontré en ellos, en Inés, una amiga :) OBRIGADO

João e Inês foram muito receptivos, me senti em casa. As tarefas eram prazerosas, adquiri muito aprendizado. O projeto é interessante e está no começo, então ainda tem bastante coisa a se fazer. Foi legal participar de algo inicial, pretendo voltar pra poder acompanhar o desenvolvimento. Foi uma experiência satisfatória.
