Ola Jorge, tudo bem?

Muito obrigo por a sua hospitalidade. Gostei meu ficar muito. A fazenda parece como um parque natural privato, foi lindo! As mirantes são muito bonito, o pôr do sol impressionante, e a casa parece um castelo: é grande e luxuoso. Vi muitos animais, como macacas, colhereiros rosas, e tantas pássaros dos quais eu não sei o nome.… read more

Despertar é a palavra que resume minhas duas semanas com Jorge. Despertou meu olfato através da extração de óleos essenciais, o paladar com os alimentos orgânicos, o tato ao colher calêndulas e yacom e trabalhar com bambu, a visão ao olhar para o céu estrelado e a audição ao escutar o silêncio que envolve a fazenda. Além disso, expandiu e agregou… read more
