The Experience

For those who like playing with kids and helping a bit in the house this position is just easy and fun. A peaceful place, an engaging child, and a vision of creating joy and peace and spirituality together. Sometimes we don't have enough work to do, so we need to visit the local river beach or community, or make videos and music, or work on our dreams of spiritual education, art and community building.

I felt welcome and it was a nice stay and family. Some details I wish I'd known before going: their accommodation isn't in Covilha, but in a nearby village called Barco. Transportation is very limited, and it's difficult to get around if you don't have your own vehicle, so the stay can feel long if you can't move. Another recommendation is talk about the tasks you'll be doing and agree on them before starting, so the stipulated hours are commited. I didn't do this, and it was a mistake. Finally, I was interested in learning some Portuguese, however, if you're also interested, not the bestplace
