The Experience

Olá, viajantes! Um paraíso no meio da natureza, temperado com muita música e brownies. A ideia da participação dos voluntários é após um café da manhã, para participar das diversas funções para poder manter a estrutura do espaço, seja na horta, jardim, arrumação e limpeza. Também pode ser para ficar atento ao carro... funções normalmente domésticas, assim como outras intervenções possíveis. Vem nos ajudar!

My stay at Hugo and Ana was a blessing. I am very happy to have had this experience. Truly being immersed in their life and feeling very welcome. At times there were some misunderstandings and disagreements about the voluntary work. But Hugo was easy to communicate with about these things and it resolved itself. Happy to share his the home and delicious chocolate, truly made me addicted! Ana made me a very beautiful amanita crochet hat, she is very talented at her work! The place they live is incredibly beautiful, with a view of Paraty from afar, and beautiful cachoeiras nearby. Thank you ❤️

Hugo & Ana are a lovely couple who will welcome you & make you feel at home. The house is still on renovation so some things are unfinished or missing like windows & furniture. It's located 10km from Paraty in the middle of the beautiful nature & some waterfalls. My tasks were mostly cleaning, cooking & taking care of the garden. I did 3 professional Thai massages as well as good will. I didn't have 2 days off but it was ok for me. Their English is limited. I would suggest to bring mangos, avocados, papayas, gloves & repellent. If you love dairy, sugar & desserts, this is the place for you!

Foi uma experiência incrível! Fui embora com o coração cheio de gratidão e felicidade de tudo que vivenciei nessas duas semanas na montanha. Hugo é um cara sensacional, muito iluminado e super flexível. Os a casa são uma delícia!! Essa experiência é para quem deseja sair da zona de conforto, tudo lá é bem roots. A casa do Hugo é sensacional, a vista é de tirar o fôlego. Foi maravilhoso acordar com o solzão irradiando a sala. E ainda tomar banho na cachu que fica só uns 5 minutos da casa. Fiz amizades que vou levar para sempre comigo. Só gratidão por tudo que vivi. Suuuper recomendo 🙏🏻
