I really spend two wonderful weeks in Palmeiras. The work is very relaxed and flexible, my highlights were doing some English classes for the kids and participating in the Capoeira class. Seeing the strong connection the kids have to their culture was very enriching. The Mandaca, where you live is a lovely place with amazing people, besides you have a lot of free time to explore the stunning nature and do various hikes, so I totally recommend it!

This is very special place, Cris and the whole team here are so sweet, the kids too. It's a wonderful social project that I'd recommend to any fellow traveler :) The location was phenomenal, one of the most beautiful parts of Brazil, with an abundance of hikes, waterfalls and rivers to visit during the day. The work hours were super manageable, a few hours in the evening helping out with cleaning, gardening & general tasks. I did two english classes, this was probably my favourite part, everyone who came was so sweet and engaged with class. It felt so special to have this new connection.

I was the most pleasantly suprised in my stay at the organization, as it became one of my favorite experiences after 5 months in Brasil. I loved working with the kids and being part of the community. They have a strong capoeira culture there which was incredible to witness. The kids really need different structured things to work on after school. Teaching languages, movement, or anything else is great and they are all so curious and energetic! Cris is very friendly, communicative and helpful. The workload is not too much at all if you like to work with kids. I will be back and next time stay for longer!

O voluntariado é ótimo, conheci pessoas do mundo todo, me conectei com as crianças e aprendi um pouco mais sobre mim nesse tempo. As tarefas são tranquilas e há muita liberdade para propor atividades para as crianças.
