The community da the community is an off-grid village where I could learn by practice living with the nature. There is a house just for the volunteers which feels home, and several common areas to connect to the internet, cook or bath. The community is well structured: daily meals, tasks assignment, working hours ; and at the same time flexible. You will need to adapt to certain things (like using your phone less, being careful of snakes, sometimes accomplishing physically hard tasks, ...), in exchange you will receive a lot of gratitude. By joining the community you will live an unforgettable experience !

Minha experiência na comunidade foi absolutamente incrível. Quero agradecer a cada um da comunidade por toda a confiança, bom humor, hospitalidade e ensinamentos. Cada momento foi único e muito importante para mim como pessoa, como desenvolvimento pessoal e social. Cada troca, cada conversa, cada tarefa a ser feita, tudo agregou demais para mim como pessoa. Pude aproveitar momentos em a comunidade e também sozinha. Difícil dizer o que foi melhor: cada banho de rio, cada trilha, cada pôr do sol, cada roda na fogueira com música, cada refeição maravilhosa… obrigada de coração, e espero voltar logo ❤️

Eu só tenho a agradecer pela oportunidade de estar esse tempo na the community. Eu aprendi muito com as atividades desenvolvidas e as pessoas sao muito solicitas ao ensinar. Comi refeições criativas e foi a minha primeira experiência comendo vegetariano. Me desconectei de muitas coisas (online, ritmo da cidade) para estar presente no momento com essa natureza abundante que tem na the community, com novos sons de pássaros a cada dia, longe do barulho de carros, compartilhando esse momento com moradores e voluntários. Foi uma experiência inesquecível e transformadora! 💚💚🍃🍃🍃
