O Germano é uma pessoa maravilhosa, extremamente sociável e de facílima adaptação. Nos ajudou em tudo aquilo que se comprometeu, cuidou dos animais resgatados, colaborou com a limpeza e conservação do local. Dono de uma vibe muito boa, ficou conosco sem causar nenhum desconforto, só tenho coisas boas para salientar sobre ele! Recomendo demais! Tive a oportunidade de conhecer sua esposa, a Gisa, que também é uma pessoa maravilhosa! Obrigado por tudo GÊ! Volte sempre! Um grande abraço!

A a guest house é um lugar bastante tranquilo, em meio à natureza. O Vini e a Minie abrem as portas da casa para os Worldpackers e foi bem legal conhecer e conviver com pessoas de diferentes culturas durante as duas semanas que estive lá. O trabalho e os turnos são bem flexíveis, o que permitiu conhecer vários lugares incríveis que as cidades de Canela e Gramado oferecem.

A minha experiência foi incrível! Durante duas semanas tive a oportunidade de conhecer de perto o movimento de educação viva e consciente em um espaço acolhedor, que me permitiu olhar para dentro e reconectar com a natureza de forma genuína. Grato por fazer parte e ajudar a construir este lugar mágico.
