With its unique cuisine, rich culture, some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and welcoming people, Brazil is the perfect place for service, adventure, and the sun on your shoulders! Fly into Florianopolis where our time will be spent serving and adventuring. Most days will include working side by side with the local people while we provide education and improvement projects to the poorest area in Southern Brazil. Here we will provide families with clean water filters and teach self-sufficiency classes. We will spend time working at a community center and deliver much needed food. Connect with the elderly at a low-income nursing home, where elders are in desperate need of love, service and quality time. Work at a low income after-school program and help improve the lives of students both at home and at school.

Take surf lessons and paddle board on some of the most iconic beaches and shorelines in the world, sand board down Joaquina Dunes that stretch from a nearby lake all the way to the ocean, and ride horses along the unforgettable coast.

This expedition pace and projects are the perfect mix of hard work, growth, and pure beachy bliss.
