Grande mulher! That experience is worthles! It's a very peaceful place in the middle of forest. Very secure. It's just great to be part of this project and experience nature. Alex is a great alternative, strong woman. She is unique and beautifull ❤️ thank you Alex for being part of my story. It was a pleasure and I will see you again. Damião is a great boy and there is no words to describe little wild baby Ana Victoria. You will feel like in a movie scene watching her with Mikas (the cutest cat). I am happy they exist 🙏❤️ grande abraços.

Ha sido mi primera experiencia World Packets y ha sido maravillosa. Alexandrina es una mujer muy trabajadora a la vez de hospitalaria. El trabajo ha sido duro pero el resultado gratificante y la finca es un espacio lleno de amor a la naturaleza.

No início, deu tudo certo, a anfitriã sempre se mostrou prestativa em todos os aspectos. O lugar é excepcional, somente um pouco distante a pé de mercados e afins, possui uma energia muito boa. Contudo, planejei um passeio de 3 dias, em que tudo foi previamente combinado e, ao retornar, recebo uma mensagem em que eu não estava me importando com as atividades do local, fiz um feedback para a anfitriã ressaltando o acordo que havíamos feito e simplesmente fui expulso após concluir algumas atividades. No mesmo dia, mandei as conversas de whatsapp para o suporte para provar a situação.
