I volunteered here for almost 3 weeks and can't wait to return one day. There's a very special energy here at this site and you can immediately feel how much effort and care has gone into. The beautiful house felt like a home while I was there, and Vico was so helpful in teaching us about his crops as well as the surrounding rainforest. The work felt relaxed, flexible and collaborative and was really satisfying to see the finished results. The valley itself with its stunning waterfalls 10 minutes from the house was beautiful just on its own. I'd recommend to anyone wanting meaningful experienc

O sítio busca proporcionar sua coexistência em equilíbrio e respeito a natureza. Desse modo os voluntários tem a oportunidade de aprender de forma prática sobre Bio-construção, Agrofloresta entre outras práticas sustentáveis. O vale da forqueta (região do projeto) em si já é um lugar muito rico, cercado de rios, cachoeiras e MUITA floresta. Mas o que realmente realmente deixa esse lugar especial são os hosts Vico e Dani que em todo momento buscaram nos ensinar e acolher como família. Recomendo o projeto pra todos do Woldplackers e um dia desejo voltar para esse lugar querido!

The project é realmente uma escola, mas não só uma escola de sustentabilidade, é uma escola da vida também. Agradecer o Vicente que me recebeu muito bem e me fez dedse o começo me sentir em casa, mesmo sendo a minha primeira vez no sítio. Foi um prazer conhecer o Vicente, Dani, Paçoca, Lola e Pretinha. Vivi momentos únicos, aprendi coisas que jamais imaginei aprender e sem contar com a beleza do lugar, com certeza foi o lugar mais lindo que já visitei em minha vida até aqui. Espero um dia voltar no sítio, meu muito obrigado de coração e até logo! 👋🏻❤️

ALERTA: Voce vai querer voltar ! the project foi uma excelente escolha pra meu primeiro voluntariado. Vicente é um anfitriao gentil ( me senti muito a vontade no espaço) e um professor generoso. O lugar é acolhedor e as acomodaçoes confortaveis. Eu e Marina 🫶aprendemos muito sobre praticas sustentaveis, nos envolvemos tarefas, experimentamos plantas pela primeira vez ( pepininho-do-mato, jambu, pixirica, flor de caeté...) e a natureza é exuberante, com a sinfonia de pássaros, insetos e bugios. Foram dias leves de aprendizado e risadas. (Peçam p conhecer D. Maria e seus doces.)

Minha experiência foi muito boa. O Vicente construiu a casa e todas as instalações ele mesmo, com a ajuda da comunidade, ao longo de anos, e generosamente compartilha tudo conosco. É possível aprender muita coisa apenas observando como elas podem ser feitas de maneira diferente. O local é maravilhoso, e pudemos contribuir realizando diversas tarefas diferentes. Recomendo muito a experiência para quem deseja aprender mais sobre plantas e animais nativos da região, e também para quem se interessa por ver como é possível viver em harmonia com a natureza e aprender sobre a bioconstrução 🏕️🤗🩷
