Matheus is a remarkable man for me, his example inspires me to be better human and go to take risks. Matheus e Nicole are the perfect match, they are full of smart biz ideas😍, I'm sure they're gonna have a lot of fortune! Sonia and Alex have the perfect marriage that I aspire to have one day😍 Alex is the father that I always wanted to have🥹! Guillerme is a wonderful, fun, kind person, you can't get bored with him 😊 all of them are into sales & self-growth.I felt so privileged of being part of a family with the same success mindset as me. Obrigada,your advices will guide my success journey♥

Alex and Sonha were so welcoming to us. The food they made were always really good and we were always having good conversations during our meals. The work is light and manageable to finish. The property there is beautiful, lots of different fruits and plants. Their two dogs and bird are really cute. Definitely recommend volunteering here.

My experience was great! The family is very friendly, funny, and giving. Despite the language barrier at times they were very loving and became our Brazilian family. Sonia provided great hospitality and delicious meals. Guillerme was king enough to drive us to explore the city and teach us about Brazil culture. Alex was always there to make us laugh and make the best caipirinhas. Overall the chores were self explanatory with flexible hours. We did yard work and helped out with other things we noticed. Beautiful home, great for relaxing and enjoying nature just be aware of mosquitoes! Obrigado

Me and my friend stayed at Matheus family's house for a week on the countryside of beautiful São Paulo. Matheus was himself traveling when were visiting, but had his lovely family take care of us. We had a great time at the farm, got to learn about the local culture and practiced our Portuguese. Thank you once again to the family, it was an unforgettable memory:)

Si lo que se desea es sumergirse en la cultura de una familia brasilera local, este voluntariado es el ideal, ya que la familia del anfitrión te acoge como si fueras un integrante más de la familia, el amor y respeto son primordiales, la comida además de ser tradicional de brasil es deliciosa, en el espacio se respira aire limpio hay mucha naturaleza, frutas y plantas exóticas, y la acomodación del voluntario es bastante confortable. La familia siempre está atenta a que uno se sienta a gusto en el espacio, es ideal también para aprender el portugués. Realmente fue una hermosa experiencia.
