Hey there, welcome to Costa da Morte!
The coast of poetry, cliffs, wild storms, lighthouses and crystal beaches.
My name is Milou, I am a singer, voice coach and sound healer originally from Amsterdam.
It was my longtime dream to live in a lighthouse to bring humans of all ages and backgrounds together through song, silence and nature. During my search through Europe for an empty lighthouse, I found a rustic home on a hiking trail in the countryside that leads you to all lighthouses of Costa da Morte. And so the story began.
I believe that the planet needs as many dots on the map as possible where humans, animals and plants can thrive in harmony. Our land is meant to be one of these dots. Right now we are focusing on renovating and decorating the house. In the coming years the focus will lay more on the land (gardens, treehouse, animals..)
Do you want to be part of the project, explore the surroundings and contribute to the place with your talents?
Let me know!
Love,
Milou
