"Ibiti graced the pages of the respected French newspaper 'Le Figaro,' with an article by Bérénice Debras (and photos by Érik Martin), which addressed the art and nature of the project in Minas Gerais. 'Far from the noise of the world, time extends deliciously to the rhythm of hammock swings or walks, bike rides or horseback rides on the property, leading to festive meals prepared along the waterfalls. (...) 'Ibiti is a simple project that asks fundamental questions,' observes Renato Machado. 'Where do we place our values today? Are gold or diamonds worth more than the destruction of nature for their extraction? (...) Now, I let nature do its work for more biodiversity.'"
