    First of all, the portuguese language. Here we do not have too much people speaking english, so is good oportunity to have a real and deep immersion on the language and the regional culture.

    For gardening is a oportunity to put on pratice everything that you learn or want to try about plantation, flowers and vegetable gardening. We are always open to try good ideas. We have a green house full on and a lot of space to plant.

    In general, for people who like the brazilian culture or want to learn about it. We have many waterfalls to visit around, good food and nice people that don't have normaly the oportunity to know foreigners.

    Be side that, all the projects are on a starting phase, so you have the chance to give your "touch" on it. If you are the kind of person who like the left you contribution on tha places that you stay, here is the spot.
