Program Details

The exchange consists of collaborating in planned activities where you put your skills and wisdom at the service (learning/teaching) and sharing the daily tasks of a tribe/family, keeping your space and common spaces in order. Our activities provide comprehensive collaboration to the community and to those who are curious to live a magical experience with them. The collaborator is accompanied in the projections that are established by mutual agreement, since the idea is exchange. Contributors can suggest ideas that contribute to their expertise, their colleagues, the community and the environment. Anything that adds value is welcome and if the conditions are viable that projection will be met.


Activities & Shift

The activities will be carried out according to the schedules established for each screening, subject to changes due to weather issues or agreements on length of stay with collaborators. The person has the freedom, outside of collaboration hours, to enjoy their time as they wish.


Rules

The only rule is to have the will to live fully every day!
