    Description

    About me: My name is Leandro, i am a developer who enjoys alternative life styles, I have travelled in a camper van in the past and decided to become more stationary in order to build an eco village.
    About my place: It is a big land, in the middle of Minas Gerais cerrado, in a city called Serra do Cipó, a waterfall paradise. There are LOTS of things to do nearby: Climbing spots, waterfalls, kaiaking, trekking, cycling, horse riding, etc.

    Help me with building a offgrid village at Serra do Cipo, a waterfall paradise in Minas Gerais Cerrado.
    I currently have a big land with only my old house in it. I am currently doing some reform of the house and the terrain, and need help with that. And I will soon start building a small off grid village here.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Serra do Cipo is a waterfall paradise, with a huge river which crosses the city. You can do some hikings together if you are into that.
    Also there is a lot of cultural movement in the city, with a cultural center which is built by the descendants of the freed slaves from the region. Where we have Samba events, and Candombe.
    There are plenty of festivals during the year on the main square of the city and in nearby cities, you can expect to see many local cultural expressions like: Capoeira, Camdombe, Forro, Samba and so on
