He was recommended to other hosts; he has a lot of experience in fieldwork, Social Networks, drafting civil construction plans... Excellent person...

Nelson mi amigo y hermano. Muchas gracias pela oportunidad. Gracias por mi permití compartir de su cultura y su familia. Una das cosas que aprendi con ustedes es que tenemos que valorar lo que tenemos ahora, no lo que falta. Fuerte abrazo y hasta luego.

Ficar no eco lodgecom a familia de Nelson foi uma das experiências mais incríveis que já vivi. Posso dizer que foi um dos mais verdadeiros choques de cultura da minha vida, no alto dos meus 60 anos estar numa região arqueológica, com Nelson, uma pessoa extremamente gentil, amável e preocupada com o WP, sua mãe Sra Aurélia, seu pai Sr. Pompeyo, verdadeiros descendentes ancentrais e seu irmão Cristian, ser místico com muito conhecimento do cactos São Pedro. Uma verdadeira família peruana e seu dia a dia de trabalho. Colher e comer muita "papa" fez parte. Muito obrigado hermano. Fuerte abrazo.

Think of that cheerful, upbeat old-timer! haha Brightened up the place, organized the team with his leadership, made reforms to the structure...he's a very experienced guy who knows what he's doing, and he does it very well! Loves fishing and brought fresh fish and shellfish for everyone! haha I hope he comes back soon, we really need experienced people like him!

Daniel meu irmão. Passar o Ano Novo com a "Família Naufragados" foi uma das coisas mais gratificantes que Deus me concedeu. Muito obrigado pelo carinho. Quando regressar do Peru pretendo passar um tempo longo contigo e poder contribuir mais com o Projeto Naufragados. Foi demais de bom ficar com um grupo que luta incansavelmente por um Planeta mais igualitário e sustentável. Abração y hasta luego hermano.

O lugar é mágico e fantástico. Tem uma energia contagiante. Estávamos em 10 WP o que fez com que a trocas de culturas e idiomas fossem mais intensas. O Daniel é um anfitrião maravilhoso, sempre preocupado com os WP, participando ativamente de tudo, aliás, não consegue ficar parado. O Projeto Naufragados, visa o desenvolvimento sustentável de uma área de mata com uma natureza esplendorosa com trilhas de, literalmente, tirar o fôlego. WP com conhecimento em energia solar e construções de filtros anaeróbicos serão bem vindos. Obrigado Daniel pelo convite para te visitar. Até breve. Abração

The couple Orlando and Iliane were my first experience as a host, and I loved it, because they are really kind! They helped with whatever was possible here in the renovation I'm doing in the garage. It was a very good exchange of experiences!

Background

Education

Graduated in Nursing from the Federal University of Santa Catarina with specialization in public health and urban planning and with an MBA in City Manager - City Manager of Cities from Fundação Armando Alvares Penteado, São Paulo.

As Employment and Income Manager for the Government of the State of Santa Catarina, I have worked across nearly the entire state, always developing projects in the most underprivileged social areas, whether affordable housing, community gardens, job and income generation, and public health. I have owned my own companies in the fields of engineering (construction, painting, landscaping and restoration), cooperativism (social and agricultural organization) and aluminum (production of doors and windows). Throughout my life I have performed volunteer or professional services with residents' associations, mothers' clubs, orphanages, literacy groups, environmental preservation, urbanization and landscaping as well as restoration of buildings, that is, painting, planting, restoring, in the tireless pursuit of providing a better quality of life for myself and for others. Amateur photographer since 1985. Now I want to share my experience and learn much more. I intend to pursue a master's degree upon returning from the trip within two years.

As Employment and Income Manager for the Government of the State of Santa Catarina, I have practically known the entire state. I stayed in Brasília as an adviser for almost a year. In Rondônia I contributed to the implementation of the cooperative system and projects to generate employment and income for immigrants. Argentina, Uruguay and Chile in leisure and research trips. Brazil almost entirely. Always involved in research projects combined with leisure.
