    Description

    Hi, I'm Ale and with my fiancee Tissy, we are building together an permacultural/ yoga retreat here in the southeast of Brazil. In this beginning we're currently working on building a yoga hall and focusing less on the farming itself. If you have any skills related with wood/timber frame or would like to work with together even if you don't have experience, let us know.

    We provide a room with an amazing hot shower and all the ingredients for amazing veggie meals. Mostly a lot of personal space and also a stunning view of the mountains. It's a great place to connect, rest and restore. A lot of our volunteers that have been traveling a lot, highlight that here was a special part of their journey and they could rest. :)

    I'm a meditation teacher, and Tissy is a psychologist.
    We are learning a lot here on our farm and sharing whatever we learn in this process.
    We are currently 2h away from São Paulo center, and 1h30 away from Guarulhos airport. It's easy to get a bus to come to Monteiro Lobato, from the city of São José dos Campos. From there we can pick you up in the bus station of Monteiro Lobato.

    Join us and help us create this paradise here!
