Helena is a wonderful woman who made my first volunteering experience unforgettable. She cooks delicious and different lunches every day, and her home is cozy and welcoming. I fell in love with her sweet cat and two lovely dogs. Our tasks included walking the dogs, painting, gardening, organizing, and other DIY projects. I really enjoyed my time there and learned a lot. One thing to keep in mind is that the house is in a very quiet and remote area, so there's not much around. It's the perfect place if you're looking to disconnect, enjoy nature, and have a peaceful routine.

Helena was amazing, super friendly and welcoming. The communication was great, she explained the tasks very clearly and we had great conversations over lunch. The tasks were very reasonable and working hours very good too. Helena is also an amazing cook, we ate something new everyday, and the food was very good and healthy. 100% recommend.

This was my first volunteering experience and it was amazing! Helena was a wonderful host, very kind and communicative. The tasks were well explained and she was always available to help us with any questions. We loved the mornings walking the dogs through the nature. We had everything we needed in the apartment, which was very cozy. Helena made delicious lunches, we tried many different foods and during those lunch moments we were able to have very nice conversations. I recommend this experience to anyone who enjoys nature and a peaceful place.

Marcelle and I had incredible days with Helena as our host. Every day, we enjoyed walks with her adorable dogs, Rufi and Pluto, which was such a joy! Helena is a professional chef, and she treated us to delicious lunches—the best codfish I've ever had in my life. The tasks she gave us were very easy and relaxing to complete, making the experience even better. The apartment she provided was super comfortable, warm (even in winter), and clean. It was truly a wonderful time, and I can't wait to return someday.

A life-changing experience. Helena is a very caring, kind, and loving person — also, a remarkably talented cook. every day, we walked her lovely dogs, Pluto and Rufi, and during these walks, we had the chance to connect with nature, which was amazing. Helena was very flexible with the tasks, which were easy to handle. she provided a comfy and clean apartment, along with everything we needed. however, for me, the most important part was the connection we were able to build, especially during lunch. Helena will always come to mind whenever I have “caju cru” or when “picanha” is on the menu. <3
