We run a park similar to 30 such parks that exist in all over the world. They are a place for lingering and meeting, and radiate a new spirituality that rejects all forms of violence and discrimination, appealing to the sacred dimension of the human spirit, seeking to discover freedom and meaning. We are 30 friends from different countries, who bought this piece of land and this farmhouse. We are financing it from our own pockets and with the help of our friends. There is no any institution, organisation or company sponsoring us. The transformation into a park of study and reflection goes step by step and all the work we do ourselves is voluntary work.

Area: Jericoacoara

I just started to run a little hostel in Jericoacoara and it's my first time with "workaway". The place I run is pretty new, has eight rooms, a garden, a common kitchen, a social area and everything else what someone needs to feel comfortable. The place is ready to start but I'm searching for "workawayers" who like to improve a place into a comfy and well organized hostel! I need help in various things; Helpers who are skilled and experienced in internet, hostel work, gardening, electrician and construction work, technical things, creative and interior decoration, cleaning, etc. The help is needed from now onwards. If you are skilled in more than one requirement even better! :)
