I felt home at the organization รguapรฉ. Maristela, Maisa, Leisa and Fernando were amazing hosts. It was a chance to be part of their association, to communicate with them and with the kids. My experience was really precious, I will not forget my days with you girls :) Espero ver vocรช em breve

The organization isn't just an organization. It's a home, a community full of love, respect, and a deep commitment to caring for others. The work is light, and they always make sure you feel comfortable and supported. And the foodโ€ฆ I was so lovingly spoiled with incredible meals and homemade cakes. I feel incredibly lucky to have been part of this beautiful mission. Thank you, Maisa, Mariestela, Leisa, and Fernando, for sharing your home and your kindness.

This is a family-run organisation that are really making a difference in their community through educational and social projects. They share their home and meals with their worldpackers and are very attentive. They are flexible with your needs, which allows for doing your own thing as well. I had my own room and bathroom, which was very comfortable. Thank you guys so much for this wonderful experience and best of luck with your project in the future โค๏ธ

My stay at the organization Association was amazing. You will be staying at the organisation in the same building where all the activity happens and you will be sharing your days with the family of Meisa, her children and sister. The โ€œworking hoursโ€ were very flexible and tasks were very creative, I was helping Leisa with some content creation for social media. I had a chance to meet many of the youth members, teach them English and practise my Portuguese. If you are looking for family atmosphere and you enjoy being with kids this experience is definitely for you! Com muito saudade de vocรชs! ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป
