I'm so grateful to Paula for welcoming me to her guesthouse. The activities are light and the schedules are flexible. Lençóis is a wonderful city; you have to be there to truly understand its vibe.

I got in touch with the bahian culture and food. The tasks I was asked to do were very diverse, from cooking, cleaning to gardening. The location of the pousada is directly at the muritiba entrance and 5 min from the city center. I am thankful for this experience that I had. However I would recommend to speak at least intermediate portuguese to be able to communicate better. Obrigada a Paula pela paciencia. :-)

A guest house is simply amazing! A welcoming, well-kept place that wins you over in every detail. The breakfast is magnificent, those that make the start of the day even more special, and the inn's facilities are really top! Paula is very attentive, has a good energy and is always willing to help with whatever is needed, making us feel at home. It was a very good experience, in a place that brings together leisure, care and hospitality. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who is eager to live this experience!

My stay at Jardin Lençois was a different experience; Paula is an adorable person, she treats you with familial warmth. I was unwell, due to a dental problem, and she always offered me help and support. What I will miss most about Lençois will be Paula; she is really good people, it's not just volunteering, it's family and love. Without a doubt, I recommend this experience. The schedules and tasks are as agreed, and the breakfast is spectacular; Paula makes the best cakes. I extended my stay and would stay longer if I didn't have to continue traveling. Infinitely grateful to this family.
