Autres infos...
When not helping on the farm, volunteers can enjoy hiking or simply relaxing while exploring the rich flora and fauna around Cardinot, a rural village near Nova Friburgo at 1,200 meters altitude.
The area is known for its beautiful mountains, creeks, and waterfalls, offering a peaceful and safe environment for nature lovers.
Volunteers can join sports like football or volleyball with locals, or participate in community activities on the farm.
We also host social evenings with music, movies, games, karaoke, volleyball, football, or other activities depending on the group.
There is a bus stop just 500 meters from the volunteer house, taking you to Nova Friburgo in about 45 minutes, where you can explore the town and its services.
Living here gives you the chance to disconnect, enjoy nature, and immerse yourself in an international community.
