Be part of the history of Casa Mosaico, a home under reconstruction.
The experience
We were born from the idea that people, stories, and cultures form something bigger when they meet. After a challenging period, we are rebuilding the project, formerly known as Casa Amarela, here in BH. We are looking for open and responsible people, willing to contribute to the day-to-day life of the house during this reconstruction, helping to keep the space welcoming and full of life. If you believe in the power of encounters, come be part of Casa Mosaico.

Program Details
At this moment, Casa Mosaico is in a phase of reorganizing and rebuilding the space after a recent unplanned change. We are not currently hosting guests, so the focus of the activities is to help put the house in order and prepare the environment for this new phase.
The proposal is to build this new moment of Casa Mosaico in a collaborative way, with cultural exchanges, good conversations and respect for the pace of the house.
Activities & Shift
The activities may include:
• general organization of the house spaces
• assistance with cleaning and tidying after the move
• help placing objects, furniture, and materials in their places
• small setups or simple adjustments in the space
• collaborating with creative ideas to make the house feel more welcoming
• garden maintenance and construction
• Help with the pets and with the house's baby.
Rules
Respect is our basic and essential rule for maintaining a good relationship with everyone who circulates in this space; we have a manual of good practices that is handed on arrival, with basic instructions for using the space, and it is very important that it be followed.
