Welcome to Restauras farm. I'm Douglas, a Brazilian who lived in the UK for over 10 years and has decided to move back home to live in the southern countryside of Brazil to build an Ecological dream farm. Escape the city and immerse yourself in the serene and vibrant life at the farm! Nestled in the picturesque countryside, we have a charming chalet available. We're looking for someone to help with general tasks, particularly building & fixing.

Doug is a really lovely person!
The volunteering is perfect for a "back to the roots" experience.
Get ready for lots of healthy cooking with very basic, natural ingredients.
The closed town is only reachable by car so it's pur idyllic und landscape. The work is rather physical so good sleep is guaranteed!
Unfortunately it is a little less work with animals then expected as the cows and horses do not need any care. Bonus points though for the sweetes cat ever ;))

Doug is a fantastic, super smart guy with interesting practices & perspectives to share! His project is fascinating with a beautiful community & self sustaining vision. The farm has evolved a fair bit since the posting we agreed to, there is a cat, but no other animals that you help with. Most of the work we did was based in the deep jungle, creating sustainable water solutions, we also did all the cooking & cleaning. When Doug was around it was great, but due to other responsibility particularly selling the tomatoes he often wasn't home, and tasks were sometimes not clearly established.

Douglas is an amazing person! We found out we have a lot in common, which made the whole experience even better than I expected. He's flexible with schedules and activities, and really attentive to our needs, always making sure we're doing well. I learned a lot about how things work on the farm and in the countryside. My tasks were pretty diverse, which made the experience even more meaningful. I definitely hope to keep our friendship going beyond the program. It was easily one of the best experiences I've ever had.

Douglas Pessoa is amazing, has a lot of life experience, and, as a result, has a wealth of knowledge and empathy to offer. I'm very happy to have met such an intelligent and kind person like him.
