We are a family entering a new phase with "Casa JP"; we want it to be, in the future, a space for living together and/or an artistic residence in a rural area. After so much time traveling across the country and meeting so many people, my family and I are starting to build a residence in this green area surrounded by water springs, mountains, flowers, and full of traditional foods and friendly people!\n\nOPENING ONLY for those with CARPENTRY EXPERIENCE :)

Well, we’re looking for a carpenter to help us build and improve the house structure. We’ll need a walk to a waterfall or a stroll on the lawn to tell more about this project :) It’s not a problem if you’re from another country, we also want cultural exchange ;)
We really need people who have knowledge in carpentry or general maintenance. It isn’t necessary to be a professional, but you must be familiar with cutting machines, drills, sanders and other tools specific to this activity – including to avoid accidents during the program. We’ll be with you directing the activities and helping with ideas and labor, but you need to know at least minimally what you’re doing to really contribute to the project. The routine can be tiring because we’ll be doing manual work, which involves carrying, cutting and nailing wood and other kinds of materials, but in exchange you’ll have a private space and 2 meals a day :)
If you want to go to parties and drink a lot of beers, know that this is not the place.
This is the best place for those who like reading, writing and the silence of the mountains.
