  Acomodação

  Sleeping options are clean, simple and safe. You'll sleep in a cozy Bush Pod (wooden hut) or large tent (all include bedding) whichever is available. As we are an eco camp and thus no piped water, you'll use clean shared dry (compost) toilets and super nice latrines with proper seats. We offer hot bucket showers to ease away the day's labors!
  
  You get 3 simple veg/vgn meals a day which you will prepare in our basic kitchen (specialty/dietary foods, snacks, alcoholic beverages, cheese, juice/soda/milk are not catered for). Meat dishes are not prepared daily but you are welcome to partake when we do. Otherwise if you eat meat every day, you can purchase it during our weekly supply run and store it in the freezer. Drinking water/tea/coffee available throughout the day.
