Building construction worker with experience

Brazil

Igor is an amazing person and the land is stunning. The volunteer that i applied for was to babysit and gardening, is not what i did at all. The work always changes, cleaning, organizing, caring things, painting and putting oil in the walls. I recommend this volunteer to who wants to have more connection to nature and is open to do different things. Even though is not what I applied for, I really like the environment and Igor was always very open to change tasks and he let me very open to leave and help me with anything. He's also very open to any need that we have.

Igor and Marinas house has an incredible view and is very well connected with nature. The work load is not too strenuous and you learn a lot about different types of building techniques. The beds are situated in a tent/shed separated from the main house and the wifi connection does not reach the tent. You also have to use the organic toilet which is situated 30m from the tent. Igor and Marina are both very lovely people and easy to get along with, but Marina can be a little cynical at times. I would definitly do it again if I had the chance!

Igor and Marina are excellent hosts they make you feel right at home, delicious food an always fun company. I have learnt so many skills in construction which has developed my interest further. The surrounding nature will take your breath away and reset you with nature, Igor and marina are always willing to show you around! Communication is very good nothing is left unsaid so there is no bad energy in the air. I truly respect Igor and Marina and wish them the best in life!

Igor is the gem of a person ,he knows literally everything, he is a great teacher , I learnt lot of things from him. I am sure if you do volunteering with him you will be a better human being. Marina is very perfectionist so you can learn from her how to be perfectionist however you need to be very open minded with her and should know how to take feedback because she speaks blunt and with her heart out and she is hilarious person too. on the mountain, in the middle of the nature you will find yourself.

It is a beautiful place to work surrounded by nature and gorgeous views. The hosts are friendly and the pick up from the train station is great. The food was also delicious and the working hours felt reasonable with plenty of breaks and flexibility. You get an opportunity to learn about sustainability and building a house. Marina is friendly but can be cynical at times. There's not a lot to do in the area but overall I had a great time and would recommend working there.

Segunda experiencia, aunque decidí extender la primera ha sido un lugar para conocer y conectar con diferentes personas. Se disfruta, pero también se trabaja duro. Tareas en construcción, cocina, limpieza, cuidado de caballos, compras, logística, guías, transporte…. Básicamente tendrás o proyectos o tareas variadas. El lugar queda en la cima de una colina, así que tendrás un amanecer y una atardecer increíble.

Foi uma experiência incrível! O Alex, que administra o local, é um excelente líder e um cozinheiro excepcional. Ele está sempre disposto a ajudar nas tarefas e demonstra um grande cuidado com os voluntários. Além disso, tivemos bastante contato com os cavalos, o que foi uma experiência muito especial. O mais enriquecedor, porém, foi a imersão na cultura local. As tarefas são simples e tranquilas de realizar, tornando a estadia ainda mais agradável. Foi ótimo passar esse tempo aqui!

El alojamiento es un lugar agradable. Inmerso en un entorno el alojamiento y rodeado de gente local. El ruido de la ciudad aquí no existe y se agradece. Las vistas del amanecer y atardecer, valen totalmente la pena. En cuanto al trabajo, a ratos es duro. Entre las principales labores que me tocó ejecutar están: limpieza y orden de bodega, construcción, preparación de alimentos y cuidado de caballos. Practiqué un poco mi inglés y conecté con hermanos sudamericanos con los cuales reí mucho. La energía y buena onda de los voluntarios fue espectacular.

Mi primer voluntariado y la verdad, me pareció genial!! Aprendí bastantes cosas, el lugar es magnifico y el host hospitalario. Lo recomiendo para las personas que les gusta la aventura, que son hiperactivas y les encanta los retos y se consideran "todo terreno" y, (esto es una humilde opinión) tal vez no lo recomendaría mucho para las personas que buscan tareas tranquilas, predecibles y sencillas. Depende mucho de lo que se busca y de la actitud como se percibe la experiencia. En mi caso, me llevo una muy bonita experiencia, unas ganas enormes de volver y una inmensa gratitud con el host :)

Una de mis mejores experiencias de vida. Una granja donde ahi muchas actividades, ser proactivo te abre puertas se los digo a todos los chic@ que quieran aplicar. Es un lugar alejado de la población. Asi que tendrás mucho tiempo para ti. Tuve la oportunidad de participar en un viaje por 6 días a caballo, donde parte de la logística la lleva acabo los voluntarios ,es decir que ahí momentos un poco pesados, pero la comida, el entorno y las personas a las que conoces no tienen precio de comparación. Asi que gracias Igor, alex, tomi. por compartir su tiempo y vida por un par de semanas conmigo.🤩
