    Description

    We shape and are shaped by the spaces we inhabitate.
    What are you Sourcing?
    This project invites you to commit and experiment yourself as a creator, clearing the impact you want to leave behind you, taking radical responsibility as a collaborative part of the biodiverse ecosystem. You are invited during the time you will stay here, to embody being one of the Guardians of the Land that welcome us, researching Regeneration in yourself, with eachother, in relation, with the Land.

    As there is at least a child around, how we relate with childwood and Re-imagine learning spaces, is part of our reflection; and everyone brings responsibility as a co-shaper of an intergenerational poliverse where every individual is a learning space.

    The land is a forest wild garden bio-realm.
    We are in rehabilitating-beautifying the space to serve co-living and Collaborative experiments.

    As Guardians of the Land all commit to take care and co-create with the biodiverse space; and learn from it.
    We live independently, autonomously, committed with our evolution, sharing spaces when we want, feel and declare it; we are responsible to ask for what we want, to communicate our needs and bring collaborative creations and proposals to eachother. We dont seek love. We are the Love.

    Caring the spaces is being in relation.

    Beauty is a guiding star.

    Interested in Creation, embodiment, wilderness, sovereignty, poetry, vibration, the nourishing and creation power of words, beauty, radical responsibility, mage work, togetherness, consent, respect, collaborative empowerment, evolutionshaping.

    A space free of smoke, alcohol, meat

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We inspire eachother.
    Sustainable networks:
    On the path of supportive networks, our space supports your gifts and creativity if you have a workshop or creation you would like to share with the local villagers. Theres an inside space for this.

    Theres a 2nd hand clothes project in site, promoting responsible consume, reusing and sharing.

    Food: Theres a common kitchen. Everyone takes responsibility for their food though we invite eachothers to have meals or cook together when we feel to; We are blessed to be surrounded by wild eatable plants and abundant season fruits.
    The local nice price food at the weekly village market is walking distance, just 1,5km. There are bicycle's you can use. Theres a bulk organic food neighbour project, where its possible to order. We observe the impact of our shopping choices and consider options where we reduce plastic use.
    We are interested in food autonomy and want to dive more on pranicliving experiments.

    The nature surroundings that welcomes you is reconnective, beauty touching. Moon rooks. Lakes and Waterfalls. Mountain. Tree temples. You can find historic remains of the multiple civilizations and cultures that co-shaped this region, including megalithic dolmens and menhirs. Hiking paths everywhere. The villages around can be a poem. The closest one is just 1,5km
