  Description

  Clem, Clarita, and Ewa (1year and half) alternative family living in vale do capaõ, in chapada diamantina, Bahia. Bringing back fertility to the land to support regenerative living, in an effort to create a sanctuary for both ourselves and all those who pass through.
  The land is 5km from the village near the start of aguas claras. We are currently creating agroforestry and structures using bio-construction. We have some skills but we need your help to realize this project.
  This is for people who are okay to work hard outside. We will do 4-5 hours per weekday and the rest is free time.
  We are also looking for individuals interested in playing the game of life with the little mysterious being (our daughter).
  We like to trek and hope we could walk together. We also welcome moments of stillness and dis-identification and support contemplative practices.
  It would be a human experience and we would love to learn and share with one another. All in an effort to be stewards to earth and reharmonize ourselves and our relationship to the world.
