The Experience

Moramos no sítio e fazemos um trabalho de reflorestamento. Estamos acostumamos a receber voluntários, sempre uma troca muito legal. Trabahamos com permacultura e princípios agroflorestais. Precisamos de cuidados dos plantios, e serviços gerais. No sítio temos bastante água e cascatinhas, uma ducha no meio da mata. Gostamos muito de passear nas maravilhosas cachoeiras da região e curtir a charmosa cidade de Pirenópolis.

Sitio Galería is a paradise! Mimi has done a fantastic job with the trails, outdoor shower, everything is so beautiful! We learned a lot about permaculture, flora from the region, and I was able to enhance my woodworking skills by building a few tables. Mimi is full of information and is happy to talk about any subject, you will learn a lot from her! There were many different types of tasks during our time there including: weeding gardens, cutting the grass, taking care of a sheep, helping cut down trees, and general cleaning/cooking. Be prepared to get your hands dirty and enjoy nature!

A experiência de trabalho no Sítio o projeto, com Murielle, foi ótima. Vejo que é relevante trazer como o trabalho exige uma verdadeira dedicação. Tive a honra de colocar as mãos na massa, na terra mesmo, e sentir verdadeiramente esse elemento tão potente. A querida guardiã do espaço, e anfitriã do programa, me recebeu muito bem, foi super cuidadosa, e aberta para trocar. Que alegria foi estar nesse lugar tão maravilhoso, repleto de vida, e conversar abertamente e profundamente sobre o mundo. Merci beaucoup!

Tive uma experiência incrível, Murielle construiu um refúgio paradisíaco fruto de seu trabalho e de sua família juntamente com a mãe natureza! O trabalho é pesado e fiquei impressionada com a força e motivação da Mimi, mas lembre-se que temos recompensas incríveis após as tarefas como se refrescar numa ducha de água natural, deitar em uma rede na mata e apreciar a natureza e comer frutas do cerrado diretamente da fonte! Eu indico esta experiência a todos que amam a natureza e gostariam de se reconectar e aprender mais sobre o cultivo da terra de forma sustentável. Já estou com saudades ❤

Minha estadia no projeto foi muito boa, a Murielle é um doce de pessoa, com grande conhecimento de permacultura...o espaço do sitio é um paraiso que ela construi fazendo o reflorestamento da area, as horas de trabalho sao bem tranquilas fazendo poda de bananeira, rastelagem de trilha e outras atividades no mato. Nas horas livres é possivel pedir um mototaxi para turistar em Piri, ou para trabalhar remoto no sitio, recomendo demaia o voluntariado por la. 😉
