I deeply thank Fabi for this week. I had a great experience, disconnected and serene. Fabi is a person who knows a lot of things, kind and fun. I was with two other volunteers in a superb atmosphere. The place is beautiful and relaxing. The food is more than delicious. I was also able to improve my Portuguese! working hours and rest days are respected. tasks are simple and varied, there are lots of different things to do! I recommend this experience!!

Rifugio the project is a truly magical place. Perhaps it's the unique energy and warmth of Fabi, the amazing host, or the stunning natural beauty of the farm. Maybe it's the inspiring eco-sustainable mission, reflected in every aspect of life here. Whatever the reason, from the very first day, I felt like part of the family, embraced by the kindness and positivity of this special place. It's perfect for connecting with nature, meeting extraordinary people, and rediscovering your inner self. Its ideal location also makes it easy to explore the wonders of Chapada Diamantina.

I could talk for hours about the project, but in short... it's a place to reconnect with yourself and nature, rescue the concept of community work, in addition to respecting your body, with a healthy diet and activities that make your body in shape.

I really enjoyed my stay at the project, especially to live in the nature, close to rivers, waterfalls and mountains which can be explored in the afternoons and on free days. I learned about ecological waste disposal, vegan cooking, and a bit about construction and agroforestry. Unfortunately, during my stay there were very few activities related to permaculture, which was my main interest of this project. Basic knowledge of Portuguese is required!

I enjoyed my 12 days here a lot! While you are far from the nearest town (~1 hour walking or 30-60R ride) the purpose of coming here, I found, is to connect with nature, relax, and learn more about earth healing practices in daily life. There are many hikes nearby (short or long) to keep your free time occupied (if not by reading, writing, playing in the River, or whatever else offline). I mostly worked/learned about vegan cooking, construction, sustainable waste, cleaning and occasionally agroflorestry principles or social media. Staying for longer, you would learn more about agroflorestry
