For those who want to get in touch with nature, it's very good, Déa and her family are very welcoming, you will experience the day-to-day routine intensely and I also learned the process of making ceramics.

Minha experiência foi incrível, a hospedagem é confortável e simples, como esperado de uma casa de interior. A casa é familiar, e estamos inseridos na rotina do dia a dia, desde o preparo das refeições aos cuidados com o espaço, além das atividades propostas, no manejo dos cajueiros e o apoio no ateliê de cerâmica. O manejo exige um certo esforço físico, mas ainda assim pude aprender sobre podas, que estando com mais voluntários se tornou divertido. Pude também colaborar com a estruturação do próprio voluntariado e na criação de alguns materiais digitais. Gratidão a Déa, Sérgio e Luzia 🙏

Nossa primeira experiência como voluntários. Queríamos poder ajudar participando de vários projetos, mas não conseguimos. Começamos fazendo uma pintura em Tadelakt em um banheiro e enfrentamos algumas dificuldades que se arrastaram por uma semana inteira. Foi a primeira vez que fizemos isso. Mesmo assim, foi uma experiência valiosa. O lugar é lindo. É cercado pela natureza e é ideal para relaxar e compartilhar momentos com Andrea e sua família. Apreciamos especialmente a comida deliciosa preparada pela Lucía.

Yes, it was a valuable experience for us too! We hope you can come back again sometime. We'll continue with the other bathrooms. She thanks you for the compliment. She is our Master Chef. 🤎
