Program Details

A typical day in our village starts at 8:00 am, except on the days that we have yoga or capoeira class which start at 8:30 am. After that, volunteers start doing their tasks which can be helping in the permaculture, cooking lunch, cleaning and tidying the space, or painting and decorating.

After lunch time, you will have free time to enjoy the area or to do the activities that you desire :)

Activities & Shift

We have weekly yoga and capoeira classes with the intention of connecting deeper to our bodies.
There are natural waterfalls within walking distance where you can explore the beauty of untouched nature. We have waves every day of the year for beginners and advanced below the village or 20 minutes away at Santa Teresa.
We provide the volunteers some materials to express their art freely, such as paint, tools and objects that come from nature.
Every Friday night we have a big dinner party where we share all different kinds of food, we have a fire and we enjoy of each other's company.
