I spent three weeks learning and working with two incredible plants: açaí and bamboo. We made (and ate) açaí often, prepared açaí seeds for crafts and made bamboo spoons and straws. Dias is incredibly kind and knowledgeable, and has lots to share about art, education and local social projects, music and culture (and açaí and bamboo!). It was an enriching experience—we shared many delicious meals and interesting conversations (best fish barbeque ever!). The location is about 30 minutes from the city center/riverfront in Alter do Chão, but we enjoyed the more authentic atmosphere. Best, Tarn

Fui muito bem recebida pelo Dias em sua casa, participei da preparação e pude degustar do melhor açaí de Alter do Chão. Conheci um pouco sobre o artesanato em bambu, realizei outros serviços como limpeza e manutenção da casa. Como fiquei pouco tempo não participei do trabalho social com as crianças.

Dias é uma pessoa muito acolhedora e generosa, nos enriqueceu com sua cultura e saberes, além de ser um arte educador que procura transformar e construir a auto estima de jovens e moradores da comunidade também empreende com a produção do açaí e a artesanato. Participar de todas as etapas de processo de produção do fruto foi um grande aprendizado e o respeito de Dias pela natureza e sua comunidade é inspirador. Aprendemos a fazer uma colher de bambu e um colar com sementes de açaí, uma experiência incrível, não foi fornecido café da manhã, porém Dias cozinhou o melhor peixe do mundo!
