The project-village is really beautiful. It's in the middle of the forest, it is very the project-conscious and has pretty constructions, including one that amplifies the sound. Fabio is really fun and laidback, and it was great spending time with him. I enjoyed the work because I was given a lot of creative freedom for the menu, had quality ingredients to work with, and had somewhat flexible hours. Since the project-village didn't have many visitors in this opportunity, there were other tasks outside cooking. Fábio, obrigado amigo, foi um prazer lhe conhecer e conhecer a the project. Abraço e até a prox

I stayed 18 days and it was a very good experience, in contact with nature and with a simpler and more conscious way of life. I had good exchanges and learned a lot.

Best possible experience, since you arrive at the project you can already feel the magnificent energy, the whole structure of the place makes you feel at ease and impressed by so much beauty, everything created with care and attention, not to mention the strength of so many who passed there and contributed to the formation of the project, I can only thank Fábio for being so welcoming and generous, everything was flexible and light, I felt at home and even more honored by so much pleasant exchange and diverse learnings, I will miss Jam, kayak trips, trips to Canoa, cooking and healthy eating, and all the connections created 💚
