My time at Biovila was truly transformative! For a month, I had the opportunity to immerse myself in the heart of the Arrábida mountains, where I learned valuable lessons about sustainability, personal growth, and collaborative work. The experience was more than just a volunteer exchange - it was a journey of self-discovery and connection with incredible people. I'll carry the people I met and the memories we created together in my heart forever. I'm eager to reconnect with them and continue sharing experiences and learnings. Biovila is a magical place that leaves a lasting impact on those who

My first home away from my country was the host in Setúbal. I spent a month helping with meal prep, cleaning, and organizing during retreats. Surrounded by the nature of Serra da Arrábida, I learned a lot about sustainable living and hospitality. I was welcomed by a big family I now carry in my heart. I recommend the host for those seeking contact with nature, cultural exchange, and personal growth. See you soon, the host. 🌱💚

Biovillla is such a beautiful place, nested in the hills of Setubal with lots of nature around. What truly makes it special though is the people working there, you feel really welcome and ready to have a good time. It's also fun that there is other volunteer to share your experience with. During high season when there is lots of retreats the work can get intense but always shared with good vibes. You will get to hear and practice lots of Portuguese and meet locals as well as people from everyone and mindful communities around. Thanks everyone for the good times!

Wonderful experience in the host! I got to know so many warmth heart people here. Every mornings they will greet you with a big smile in their faces. Good music, good laughs, good dancing and good food shared here. I wasn't expecting to try so many delicious vegetarian foods 🌱 🫶🏽 If you are into trail running and/or hiking this is also the perfect place to be. The work scheduled is respected, every week they will let you know your time shifts and days off. In the host it is all about team work 🫶🏽 I would love to come back. Muito obrigada a todos 💚

There are a lot of good things I can say about the host, but I want to start by talking about the people... they are all AMAZING! Guida, Carla, Brito, Pia, Bárbara, and the whole team made me feel at home. Lots of laughter, learning, contact with nature, good times, new experiences, new vegetarian foods, and new songs... The tasks are easy, and the schedule is respected. It's a place full of energy and good vibes.
