Program Details

Casa Sonho is located in Vila Infinito, in São Francisco Xavier (SP), a village where friends and very dear people live, surrounded by the nature of the mountains. We are renovating the house and the help needed is painting and small repairs. In exchange, you will have a private bedroom and bathroom, a kitchen available to prepare your meals, and plenty of free time in a place of silence and rest. Later on, together with a neighbor, we want to start a community garden — anyone interested in planting and with knowledge of agroforestry will be very welcome. The town center is about 25 minutes away, with recurring cultural programming and tasty restaurants. To get around I recommend: mototaxi (R$ 30 per ride), taxi (R$ 70) or a ride with neighbors.


Activities & Shift

Approximately 4 hours of work per day, in the morning, with flexible hours. The activities include: painting walls, sanding doors and windows, painting doors and the benches around the house, and small repairs. The rest of the day is free to rest, explore the region, and enjoy the nature.


Rules

Casa Sonho is a space of silence and rest, and we ask that this be respected. Smoking inside the house is not allowed. Alcohol consumption only with moderation. We ask for care and respect for the house, for the village neighbors, and for the surrounding nature.
