I thoroughly enjoyed my time on this family's eco farm. The type of work was always varied which led to an enjoyable experience during the work days. And on my time off the housing for volunteers was so comfortable and clean to enjoy and relax in peace. The farm owners are fun, respectful, and supportive. I was here only a week, however if I had more time I would gladly stay for a month or longer.

VitΓ³ria
Brazil
Tive uma experiΓͺncia maravilhosa voluntariando no projeto com a Ju e o Jacques, onde aprendi sobre jardinagem, manejo de alimentos e cuidados com a natureza. Eles designam atividades de acordo com a capacidade de cada um, as horas acordadas foram cumpridas e as vezes atΓ© menos, com tempo de sobra pra aproveitar a regiΓ£o, muito tranquilo! A casa de voluntΓ‘rios Γ© uma das mais legais que jΓ‘ fiquei, assim como a Γ‘rea da fazenda com pΓ‘ssaros cantando o tempo todo! Mais que anfitriΓ΅es, eles se tornaram amigos. Nos levaram para conhecer lugares alΓ©m da fazenda e estavam sempre lΓ‘ quando precisasse.
