Mariana and Heraldo are simply amazing human beings. They made every effort to make me feel welcomed, comfortable, and included in all activities. Their Eco Village practices diverse sustainability initiatives - permaculture garden, mindful cooking and eating, biogas generation through sewage, etc. They give you the opportunity to participate in their daily activities - permaculture gardening, cooking, making mosaics - and you really learn so much from the interaction! Lastly, they are very involved in the Eco Village movement locally and globally and are very open to sharing their insights!

¡La experiencia en la la ecovila fue inspiradora! Eraldo desde el primer día nos recibió con una sonrisa, mucho amor, buena comida y con muchas ganas de compartir sus aprendizajes en esta vida. Me voy inspirada en expardir esta filosofía de vida, en dónde el ser humano y la naturaleza conviven en armonía, en generar redes para sostenernos y avanzar en comunidad y confirmando una vez más que todo lo que hacemos es arte. la la ecovila es arte, y eso es gracias a Mariana, Eraldo y todas las personas que hemos pasado por ese lugar. ¡Gracias gracias gracias! Definitivamente volveré.

A a ecovila tem um estrutura incrível e os anfitriões (bem como todos que estavam por lá no curto período em que permaneci) foram atenciosos, solícitos, educados, respeitosos e exemplares. Que pessoas, amei conhecê-los! Poder conversar com cada um foi o melhor da estadia. Tenho ressalvas com relação ao horário de trabalho, por que não senti que há uma definição sobre isso p/ os voluntários. Aqui no site o período colocado é de 6 horas diárias, mas acabei trabalhando bem mais que isso, por seguir uma rotina que era comum a todos. Não foi um período de descanso e não curti muito o lugar em si.
