Help with a bio-construction project on the Orla in Bahian paradise Itacaré, Brazil

Description

Hi,

We have a beautiful house on the Orla in bahian paradise Itacaré, where we offer room and board in exchange for help on our land 6 kilometers out of town, where we will build rammed earth or traditional earth walls. I would actually love to build round rooms.

If you like you can camp out on the land as well, but the room in town is yours anyway. The land is magical, with a privat creek to take a bath in after work, nice neighors 200/300 metres away, surrounded by jungle and a coconut and banana farm.

Most of the pictures are from the day many friends came to help getting the earth on the walls of our shed. The wood structure was ready before.

Please only experienced people. I am a single mom. I am strong, but I am no experienced builder. I really need someone who knows what he/she is doing.
