Description
Hello there, reader and traveler. I'm Pedro. My project is going through a revival right now, and our current goals are mainly to have a good time and find out the direction to go in the future. One thing I can assure you: we will have a great time outdoors!
*️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️️I kindly ask you to do a little research before sending a request. Campo Grande is off the touristy route, and is not in everyone's plan to come around here. If you're coming from São Paulo/Rio/Brasília, a direct flight (less than 2 hours) for under 90$ is your best bet. Buses are around the same price, but will take around 14 hours.
Olá, leitor e viajante. Sou Pedro. No momento, o projeto está passando por uma reforma, e nossa maior meta é simplesmente divertirmo-nos e encontrar uma direção para o futuro. Uma coisa posso te garantir: vamos nos divertir ao ar livre!

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
This project is about people! You will be very welcome and see yourself fit in as an appreciated, well-functioning member of a small community and team
You'll get to know a common brazilian Mid-western life. It's cheap, slow and pleasant. We will explore wild places. And last but not least, there will be the opportunity to meet the incredibly wise, handsome and humble person that I am.

Este projeto é para as pessoas! Você será muito bem vindo(a) e se verá uma pessoa querida, bem encaixada em uma pequena comunidade e equipe
Você conhecerá a vida no Centro-Oeste . É barata, tranquila e boa. Você trabalhará em um projeto sustentável sensacional: uma incrível floresta de comida. E por último e mais importante, terá a oportunidade de conhecer a pessoa incrivelmente sábia, bela e humilde que sou.
Help
You need to be able-bodied: farmwork can sometimes be quite intense and demanding. But beginners are more than welcome. Mistakes make for good laughs! I surely know, since I've made plenty so far
You will work 24 hours a week MAX. You can do as you will with your free time!
As for food : we have meat, cheese, eggs and chicken (can you pluck one?), mandioca, veggies, berries, plantains, corn, squash. We can cook together sometimes, but I only eat at night. My soups are 10/10. If you're craving something specific from the market, we can go there (so you can buy it with your monies$$). Your spendings will probably be very low during the stay.

Você necessita estar livre de lesões: o trabalho na fazenda às vezes é intenso. Mas iniciante ainda são muito bem-vindos: erros trazem boas risadas. Eu, que já cometi muitos, bem sei.
Você trabalhará no máximo 24 horas semanais, e pode fazer o que quiser com o seu tempo livre.
Comida: Temos leite, carne, queijo, ovos, frango (você consegue depenar uma?), amoras, jabuticaba, mandioca, verduras, banana-da-terra, milho, abobrinha. Podemos cozinhar juntos se quiser, mas só como à noite. Minhas sopas são nota 10. Se quiser algo específico do mercado, podemos ir e você pode comprar (com a sua grana$$). Seus gastos provavelmente serão bem baixos durante a estadia.

Accommodation
There's a small house about 100m away for the volunteers. We usually spend most of the time around the bigger house though, since there's internet and a pool there. You can use the kitchen and laundry, of course.
Temos uma pequena casa separada para os voluntários, mas costumamos passar a maior parte do tempo na casa da família, já que lá há internet e uma piscina. É claro que você pode usar a cozinha e a lavanderia
What else ...
Campo Grande is a "rural capital" of 900,000 inhabitants. You'll be able to get to know brazilian Mid-Western culture. Food is great! Not much touristy stuff to do there, but we can go to nearby sweet rivers in towns like Bonito, Bodoquena, Jardim, Rio Verde...
There are also parks and local markets, to which I'll be happy to take you for a walk

Away from work Pedro is full of stimulating conversation, he is great to hang out with. He also spent some time to teach me the… read more
