Descripción
We, Charlotte (USA) and Erick (Brazil), are agroforesters living in Embu Guacu, Brazil, at Ecovilage Sustentar. We have been volunteers on various projects for a combined 25 years. We are adaptable, hardworking, and respectful companions. We value autonomy, simplicity, and sustainable practice in body, mind, and spirit. We seek a home away from home May-August, 2025, and we seek payment from our host to help cover our travel costs.

About Charlotte:
I was born in Oklahoma, USA. Since graduating from Colorado State University with a degree in English Writing, I've been working around the world voluntarily with reforesting programs, hospitality, and child/elder care. One important thing I learned about the success of these experiences is that communication with hosts and collaborating volunteers has been key to managing expectations of work and rest, cleanliness, solo time, emergency response, and general livability. You will find that I am candid, apt at what I know, and so very excited to learn what I don't know I don't know.

About Erick: I fell I am a person of many experiences and abilities. From IT technician in Sao Paulo to earning a degree in cello in Verona, I have worked as a outdoors guide, tutored teenagers at social risk, and also taught as a capoeira instructor. I have years of beekeeping and meliponideos (native bees of Brazil) and am lately flourishing taking care of the land through syntropic cultivations and agroforestry.

Juanla and Jenny are generous and fun people with lots of love and knowledge of the land. I especially enjoyed time with neighbors, other workawayers, and their family over delicious home-cooked meals. I stayed for one week in February, when the almond trees were blooming and the temperatures cold, and I was very comfortable. The main work we did… read more

It's hard to think of a time when my quality of life was better than here at this retreat. So far I've lived here four (noncontinuous) months and know I'll always have a home here.

Some things I love about this space: the rewards of our labor are immediate, the respect for humans and the more-than-human is real and tangible, and warmth and… read more

At our retreat we have hosted hundreds of volunteers over the past 6 years through Workaway. Charlotte is truly AMONG THE ELITE. She gifted us a two month stay in 2021 and is now two months in on an extended stay. I plan to make her the Retreat manager in the month of November. Her mindset, perspectives, personality, work ethic, communication… read more

I had an awesome two-week stay on Nicole's property. The main projects I worked on were weeding the organic food forest, clearing land for development, and mulching common/camping spaces.

Here is what I loved about my stay:
--Nicole made sure I was always felt warm, fed, and safe during my stay. I was treated to anything in the kitchen and had… read more

Charlotte, I'm just now able to sit down to write an excellent review about you! It was so good to meet you and we're so glad you came to stay for a couple weeks and bless us with your hard work ethics and amazing spirit! You were willing to do anything we asked without complaint, and you did a great job doing it. Our place is open to you ANYTIME!… read more

Angelica, Felipe, Marena, Santi, and Juanpi,

Thank you for the stay of a lifetime! I could only hope I gave as much as I received from my time with you. I remember the bonfire and stars of the first night I arrived to La Finca. And every magnificent sunrise! It was really a treat to get to know this land, through work and leisure, and an honor to… read more

Charlotte is a nutty girl with a funny haircut... and an amazing volunteer! Her positive attitude and work ethic set the bar for future volunteers to come. We could rely on her to lead projects, make the space clean, and represent us here to other guests and volunteers. Not only did she bring her own skills, but she was set on learning how to do… read more

My 2.5 week stay in this jungle paradise was magical! Ronnie and Val made sure I felt safe and comfortable my entire stay here, and they never pushed me to do any work I didn't want to do. I participated in the clothing-optional aspect of the hostel and found it was the perfect environment to do so. It was so fun helping to beautify and maintain… read more

Charlotte was a great WorkAway helper in every way. She has a really great attitude!

She is always looking for a way that she can maximize her helpfulness on existing projects.
She’s a diligent hard worker and a good sport…

I wouldn't have wanted to spend my Spring break anywhere else-- Neva and Tobie are good-hearted, authentic people. I not only learned a lot of skills about tools, construction, gardening, and cooking, but I had a blast doing it. They fed me to the brim with healthy and savory foods (though I made the personal choice to down a quart and a half of… read more
