Esperienza meravigliosa nella natura
April 15, 2024by: Fabio Fodaro - ItalyProgram: Volunteer in a Self-sustaining Eco Farm (Short Term)
Ad EcoCaminhos ho trascorso 2 settimane meravigliose! Due settimane dove ho conosciuto gente stupenda, con molta voglia di fare, e molto preparata. Ho imparato molto, con un giusto bilancio di teoria, pratica e divertimento. Il tutto, a diretto contatto con la foresta pluviale Brasiliana. Non potevo chiedere di meglio. Altamente consigliato!
Ciao Fabio! Many thanks for reviewing your volunteer experience. We are glad to attract people from all walks of life who share a purpose to restore ecosystems and develop themselves in the process.
