Chácara Gentileza

Hello, how are you!? I hope so!!

We're not a company; we're a rural family property, a chácara, and we have many jobs and improvements. You won't feel like you're working!

Our town offers one of the best climates in the world, recognized by UNESCO! ☀️🌎

Here you will enjoy delicious homemade meals, fresh well water, pure air, the tranquil sounds of nature, and breathtaking sunsets. 🌿🍽️🌅

We have an organic vegetable garden and an orchard, from which we harvest fresh foods every day. It is the perfect setting to relax, reconnect with nature, and live the true country life.

Here it is a family chácara, we’ve been here for 2 years and we’re improving a little more every day. An idea to transform this place into something sustainable, both financially and ecologically. I want this piece of land to be self-sufficient in food and financially. That would be really cool!

For now everything here is a bit simple, we have a big and simple house, a garden producing well, some free-range chickens, and we’re living a simple life.

I like rustic ideas... for example, a solar oven, building a pau-a-pique house, dry toilet... some ideas I’ve seen around but I’m not sure how to do them. But we could do something like that...

I have a YouTube channel where I record interviews about farming, travel, ideas... I don’t record much, but if you're interested in recording, or helping me record, it would be a big help. Doing it alone is difficult. I do this only occasionally, it's more of a hobby

Note: we do not like to nag or bother, we give each person their own time, so we like proactive people who understand what needs to be done, who wake up early. We are also learning and improving the relationship with volunteers, with every day, with each experience it will be better than the last!

We do not charge anything, however if possible we would appreciate some collaboration when we go to buy food at the market. (And also, if the volunteer wants any specific food)

In case of rides, (perhaps, if I can do) the nearest train station is Campo Limpo Paulista, I will pick up and drop off if necessary.

I will ask for help with gas if the carpool is to cities farther away, like the Jundiaí bus station or Atibaia, or airports, in neighboring cities. Jarinú is a small city and has little public transport.

We are known for warmly welcoming our visitors and volunteers. 🤗💛

You will savor homemade country-style meals, rest in comfortable hammocks, and enjoy the peace and the sounds of nature — birds, roosters, marmosets and macaws. 🌳🦜

Our well water is fresh and pure, and the air is clean and refreshing.
Jarinú is famous for having the second best climate in the world, and here you can experience moments of peace, quiet, and natural beauty every day. 🌸🌿

(Note: We also have a German Shepherd who is very mischievous and promises not to leave you alone! He is a sweetheart!)
