Help create a safe space in nature where everyone can come - in Bran, Romania

Details

  Description

  Changed my life at 180 degrees after my brother's pass away in 2022. Now working on creating a place in nature where everyone can come, feel free, feel safe, feel welcomed and hopefully to find God. This place is near the Bucegi mountains in Romania, in Bran. Words cannot describe the struggle me and my family have been through trying to cure my brother's cancer. After he left, last year, I truly realised that something has to be changed completely. His sacrifice gave me the power to start this project. Working on this for over two years now, I've encountered so many difficulties, some of which seemed impossible to overcome. But always praying and keeping my optimism helped me get over all the struggles. If you come here, I hope from all my heart that you will also find the truth and change for the better.

  Help

  We are building two small wood cabins near the forest. Most of the construction work is done by the payed team of workers. But there are lots of things to do besides this. From the easier ones like painting wood, cleaning around the house, fixing OSB panels, to the harder ones like helping me build two big boulder walls. Rocks have to be carried around, concrete has to be made and rocks placed in the corect position.

  What else ...

  In your free time you can go hiking in the near places, sightseeing, visit Bran Castle, go to the forest, meditate, relax, read books, netflix.
  The transport here is taken care of by me. When you arrive, I'll take you from Brasov city by car.
  The weather is a little chilly, 15-20°C during the day, and 5-10°C during the night, keep note that we are in the mountains, at ~800m altitude. Now that the summer is coming, it should be nice and if you are lucky you may have very good days with clear sky. Bring warm clothes with you, if not possible, we can share some clothes with you.
  The place where you sleep is in a guest house in Bran. And the construction site is at a distance of 5 min by car.
  If you like it here you can stay longer.
  As this is my first time doing this, I am aware that I might miss some things to share, but trust me, this is not intentional.
