For lovers of people, music, art, books, food & wine! A backpacker’s hostel with atmosphere, heart & soul!
My place began as a dream, a vision; it began on my travels with desires to transform every great building into a hostel. Returning to New Zealand 6 years later, that opportunity awaited me, in a then derelict beautiful Victorian 2 storied house in Oamaru. Now our hostel lives and breathes a life of it's own, we created it, and it has evolved into something far greater and more special than I could have ever imagined. The space is your own, a gift from us to you. Its a creative space, what I now see in my years here is people whom have never thought that they were creative all of a sudden filled up to the rim with a desire to create, people that never played an instrument before learn to play the piano or the guitar and what I love most is that they learn and are inspired by the people around them.
We are a Belgian /Spanish family (Me , Isabe, Lionel
15 and Pablo 10 yaers old ) living next of Conil, (Cadiz) in a little forest
, next of beautifull beaches! I rent 4 houses and give pilates clases in
a wooden-studio in the garden.
This institution was created by the initiative of a group of neighbors in order to attend to urgent basic needs of many families in our community
Nowadays we help 50 families from Monday to Sunday, having between 6 and 14 children each, all of them at risk.
After a short while some businesses in the area learnt about our project and started to cooperate so that the help given would improve daily.
In this way we could carry out our main objective: To supply families with the necessary tools to generate real income resources.
This project is self supporting at the medium term but in the meantime it is necessary to continue feeding and helping children mainly, who are the most critical age group.
This is why your contribution is essential to maintain our mission.
