  Descripción

  I am Brazilian, 42 years old, yoga instructor and I work teaching and receiving people for Finnish sauna bath, food and yoga practice. I have a 20 year old son who doesn't live with us.
  In our mountain home, we live only me and my mate, who is a psychologist and acupuncturist. Here we live with 5 very docile cats and they love humans.
  Our home is very comfortable with lots of hammocks for incredible rest, immersed in nature and surrounded by rainforest. We are practically within an environmental protection area.
  I am vegetarian, but here you can learn the typical Brazilian barbecue, feijoada and caipirinha, with my partner who also likes to cook and is not vegetarian.
  Here we have organic garden, composting and selective garbage collection. We value silence, protection and conservation of the environment. It will be great to receive foreigners to help me learn English, who enjoy good food and who can help me in organizing and cleaning the house and garden.
