The Experience

Come live just 5 minutes from Curral Beach in a full family home! We are urgently seeking someone who has a way with dogs to help us train and harmonize a large, playful dog (raised by cats!) that is reactive to motorcycles and other dogs, preparing him to travel the world. Your tasks include keeping the house clean and mold-free. Bonus: real potential to earn extra income with beach-side sales. Utilities are on you.

En el momento que escribo estás palabras estoy viajando de la casa de Eliza y voy para el siguiente voluntariado en rio de Janeiro. La verdad me siento un poco triste de salir porque en serio llegas a dónde una familia y te hacen parte de la familia. No tengo nada en contra, ell lugar es el paraíso, es tranquilo, es seguro, la gente es amable, es el lugar perfecto verdaderamente, lo único malo es los zancudos en algunas temporadas: compren un repelente!!! Por lo demás todo chévere. A Eliza le gusta la gastronomía, entonces aprende algo rico para sorprenderla.

Fazer o voluntariado na casa da Eliza e do seu filho Hunan foi uma experiência de família. De fato, me senti tia do Hunan e irmã de Eliza. Agora, realmente tenho um sobrinho e uma irmã do coração. Eliza é um exemplo de mãe e mulher, poderosa e sensível. Hunan é uma criança extraordinária, um menino inteligente e doce. Foi um prazer fazer parte dessa família! Próximos voluntários, levem muito repelente e acordem cedo pra explorar a ilha, aproveite cada dia intensamente! ❤️

Foi meu primeiro voluntario e nao poderia ser melhor. fomos recebidas e acolhidas de braços abertos pela Eliza, uma pessoa amada por todos ao seu redor e por mim nao poderia ser diferente. Tive muitas dificuldades em me adaptar ao novo estilo de vida, que era algo novo pra mim, e a Eliza sempre muito paciente e compreensiva me ajudando a encontrar soluções. Eliza tem muita história pra contar, uma mulher incrível que viajou o mundo todo com o rhuna, uma criança muito inteligente e criativacheia de cultura. sentávamos na varanda para tomar café e dali saia muitos aprendizados e conversa boa.
