Our next destination:
Brazil - from Oct 2024 View allDescription
We are Dimitri, 31, from Italy and Mariana, 30, from Brazil.
We met in Australia in 2020 as housemates in a shared house and we became friends, then became a couple and we continued our Australian experience together.
In Australia, I (Dimitri) have always worked mostly as a Pizza Chef and in the kitchens, I also have a Bachelor in Economics.
and Me (Mariana) worked as a Housekeeper, Barista and Hospitality all rounder. also worked as an Accountanter Assistant for 4 years in Brazil. Graduated in Environmental Management, I completed 200-hour Hatha & Ashtanga Yoga training at Pyramid Yogashala in Rishikesh and I am cursing now, 300-hour to deepen my practice and be able to finally starting teaching.
Dimitri - Since I grew up on a small farm in a small village in Tuscany, Italy, where my family produces and sells fruit and vegetables in local markets nearby, I am very attached to the countryside and to the good food.
Mariana grew up in the outskirts of São Paulo, passionate about dancing, did ballet from the age of 5 to 14, loves music, camping, traveling, playing the guitar, meeting people and creating new connections.
We really like being in nature and feeling connected with it. Live in a simple and peaceful way, practice sports, yoga and meditation. Also eating and cooking healthy and natural food and establish sincere, authentic and respectful relationships with people around us.
We are quiet, honest, respectful and hard working people, ready and happy to challenge ourselves in a different environment and start volunteering, seeking deeper experiences with people and nature.
And maybe one day being able to live in an off-grid tiny house, growing our food in a natural way and living in a more minimalist way.
Mostly we would like to have the opportunity to get involved in sustainable projects, as well as explore and learn alternative farming methods, such as Permaculture, Syntropic Agroforestry, Food Forests, and teaching yoga..
And also get to know people who have managed to implement alternative ways of living off the grid and growing their own food in a sustainable and natural way.
We are looking forward to meet beautiful people!
Thanks,
Dimitri and MarianaInterests
