My time at the inn was very meaningful. I helped with breakfast setup, cleaning rooms, laundry, and maintaining the grounds. Adriano, Leo, Paula, the inn, and her parents were all incredibly kind and welcoming. The accommodation is simple, with shared bunk rooms and bathrooms. There are also unique opportunities like learning about Buddhism, the inn's art, and visiting nearby towns like Iguape and Jureia. My advice: clarify work days, hours, and tasks upfront for the best experience.

Sure, here's the text in English: I have actively participated in projects with local indigenous communities, where the main focus was on promoting their empowerment. These experiences have been incredibly enriching and have provided me with a deeper understanding of the issues faced by these communities and the importance of supporting their autonomous development.

One of the best places I've volunteered at!!! The place is so quite and relaxing. the inn is a great host and really takes care of the volunteers. There is a great pool here to use, bonfires, and just overall amazing atmosphere. Tasks and hours are very easy. I hope to comeback at some point. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Charming pousada with very quiet surroundings. My job was basically cleaning but some days I also prepared breakfast. As 09/23 there's only one employee and the workload is divided between her and the volunteers (during my time, 2) which it felt not enough. Breakfast is great but only when there are guests. the inn is quite busy with her projects but she tries her best to be there. She took us (me and the other volunteer) on a beach trip and paid for the beers, which was really appreciated! P.S. if you're a woman, be sure to place limits on the inn's father as he doesn't keep his hands to himself.

The place is nice, people are peaceful, the host is loving and cares about the guests. I found the job easy; in general it's just cleaning the place, fulfilling your hours, and the host always said that they could swap the services if I wanted. Great reception, I loved their project of planting 1000 trees per year, I loved the Buddhist temple, I loved the pool, the availability of giving rides to the city, I loved the city itself. I liked the team's dedication, positive and friendly people. The hostess is an amazing person with a huge purpose on Earth. The place welcomed me with open arms.
