Deixado pelo Workawayer () para o anfitrião (Join our permaculture farm & ...)

My experience as a volunteer at this ecovillage was intense and transformative. I spent almost seven months immersed in the daily routine of the place, surrounded by breathtaking nature and incredible people who truly made a difference. However, the management and organizational environment left much to be desired.

Since the arrival of a new… read more manager at the end of 2024, the atmosphere changed drastically. No one knew that his intention was to take over the management, and if I had known that last year, I would have left much earlier. Unfortunately, his leadership proved to be inflexible, authoritarian, and unwilling to engage in dialogue. The environment, which once had the potential for collaboration and learning, became exhausting, leading many volunteers to abandon the project.

Additionally, project management is extremely flawed. The owner and the manager constantly start new initiatives, but few are ever completed. During my stay, I observed a pattern of disorganization and lack of planning, which resulted in wasted time and resources. Despite my efforts to suggest effective project management methods—based on my practical, technical, and academic experience in the field—almost nothing changed. The lack of structure and commitment to finishing projects led to frustration and demotivation among volunteers.

When we announced our departure, we expected at least some level of consideration and dialogue from the owner. However, what we received was a cold and indifferent response, focused solely on logistics and replacing volunteers, with no empathy or genuine interest in understanding our reasons. It felt as if volunteer well-being was not a priority—only maintaining a workforce. The manager, in turn, did not even bother to ask why we were leaving.

While some accommodations were acceptable, there were extremely poor conditions in certain cases. Since my arrival in September 2024, the site had deteriorating structures, and some volunteers had to sleep in yurts in terrible condition, lacking proper hygiene and even infested with rats.

I am giving a neutral rating because, despite the challenges, this experience was a true school of life. I learned a lot from the good people I met, and through the difficulties, I developed resilience and strength. If management valued volunteers more, improved basic conditions, and implemented more efficient administration, this could truly be an inspiring place.
