Ana Luiza (esposa), de 28 anos, e Aurora (filha) de 2 anos e dez meses chegam em 1 de Fevereiro. Ambos temos um estilo de vida em busca de auto-sustentabilidade e integração com a natureza. Somos vegetarianos, somos vegetarianos, amamos animais, plantas e a natureza como um todo. Já participamos de uma vivência em permacultura, participando da construção de um banheiro seco e uma fossa evatransporização.
Vossa perfil condiz em muitos aspectos ao nosso estilo de vida, vocês também tem crianças, e queremos que nossa pequena Aurora aprenda desde cedo a amar e cuidar da natureza. Queremos aproveitar o máximo para aprender o que a Real Farm Life Experience tem para nos oferecer e colocar a disposição com gratidão as nossas experiências.
