The Experience

Estamos nos primeiros passos, no Sítio Agroecológico Caminho da Paz, RJ. Valorizamos a existência humana, o potencial criativo, a arte natural, o minimalismo, o reaproveitamento de alimentos e objetos, a reciclagem e a autossustentabilidade. Caminhamos rumo à criação de uma agrovila. Ambiente simples, com piscina de nascente, redes, afeto, acolhimento e vida em paz.

Passei uma semana, provavelmente vou passar mais dias aqui, a Erica é uma super mulher maravilhosa, atenciosa dedicada ao projeto, ela cumpriu com todo o combinado, ainda comi o famoso Baião da Doida hehehe que por sinal estava uma delícia, deveras um refúgio e lugar de extrema luz,indico quem quiser voluntariar por aqui,pois o projeto carece de mais mãos dedicadas para alçar voo,gratidão minha querida pela oportunidade de fazer parte dessa família...

Coisa linda! Lugar de boa comida, comida da própria terra. o sítio tem um verdadeiro espaço de trocas intercultural. É essencial para quem busca paz e tranquilidade em meio a turbulência metropolitana do Rio. Lá, pude também trabalhar meu espanhol, além da consciência comunitária. As tarefas são de acordo com a disposição de cada um e a Érica dá total autonomia para fazermos aquilo que já sabemos; e auxílio para desenvolver o que sabemos pouco ou nada. Aprendi sobre compostagem e comecei a trabalhar em meu primeiro gongolário. Gratidão à acolhida.

Participei do projeto junto da Erica, gostaria de ter ficado mais tempo, porém o tempo que eu fiquei foi muito bom, tem cachoeiras próximas, mercado e o centrinho da cidade também, eu indicaria essa experiência para quem quer literalmente um contato imersivo com a natureza e com a conscientização dos nossos alimentos, se desligar mesmo sabe da correria e das preocupações da cidade grande, todo trabalho é acompanhado de perto, as refeições são feitas em conjunto e todos colaboram, se você gosta de mexer com a terra tenho certeza que vai adorar !

Recomiendo esta experiencia con Erica, nos recibió muy bien, es una persona muy calida,comprometida con su trabajo y objetivo.Ella es una persona única, realmente deben conocerla. Sobre el voluntariado pienso que es muy interesante su propuesta, creo que remontar un proyecto nuevamente es dificil, lo cual es bueno que sea con voluntarios que van trayendo sus experiencias con otros trabajos e informaciones sobre lo vivenciado, apoyo mucho este proyecto. espero volver algún día! Gratidão🙌🌱💕
