My stay at the farm was a fantastic experience. I was able to learn about sustainability and interact with the hosts' family and other welcoming locals. I was working alongside other like-minded volunteers who helped me practice my Portuguese. I was surrounded by nature, incredible views and amazing sunsets that I won't soon forget.

My stay at the farm was short but very good! during these 2 weeks, Mauricio and his family welcomed me with a lot of warmth and kindness, a smile on their face and calm to answer my doubts. I worked editing videos for them and had the opportunity to participate in tourist activities and explore the park trails, which was also very cool! In the future, I hope to contribute with new skills! Regarding the stay, I have no comments to define the comfort of the rooms... See for yourself!! A beautiful sunset, the sky at night very clear, with all the stars, wonderful

My experience was incredible! Maurício and Veri welcomed me very warmly, they made me feel part of the family quickly!! Great facilities, sensational food. The work was also very good, I learned new things, developed new skills!! The trails and adventures of the eco Park were the cherry on top 🥰 not to mention Juliano, who was an important part for the experience to be perfect! I felt at home quickly and I’m thinking of returning soon 🙏🙏🙏 thank you for everything, Gralha Azul family 💙💙💙

My second visit to the farm was even more special! I collaborated in different activities, which greatly enriched the volunteer experience. The accommodations are excellent, and I received all meal subsidies. The farm is located in Turvo's rural area, which contributes to a total immersion in nature. As in the first time, the farm's nest has found a home in my heart! Thank you, Maurício, Vere and Juliano, for the company during this period! And a special kiss to the new member of the team, Memel! ♥️

A experiência no sítio foi ótima e Gratificante. Fui muito bem recepcionado pelos Anfitriões Maurício e Veridiane, e também pelo colaborador Juliano. As Refeições preparadas pela Verediane eram maravilhosas, e também tivemos boas conversas. Tive a oportunidade de auxiliar o Maurício na tirolesa e rapel, e claro, aproveitei a oportunidade de praticar também. E tive bom aprendizado de carpintaria com o Juliano. E o mais bacana foi poder aprender e auxiliar o novo projeto de Arvorismo que será implantando no sítio. Fica meu abraço a todos do sítio.
