Everyday life in the community
Everyday we work together on specific projects in the community. The work includes different tasks, such as permaculture, construction or helping in the kitchen, depending on the program you choose for your stay.
In the afternoon you can enjoy your free time by swimming in the river, relaxing our participating in different workshops like Kogui weaving, yoga, sharing circles and many more. At night we spend the evening together in the Maloka around the fire, sharing words and music.
It is important to us that everyone staying in the community values to live in harmony with each other and nature. With coming here you are part of the family and that is how we treat each other. We want you to feel at home and invite you to come with an open heart and mind. We ask you for open communication and treating each other with respect.
