    Description

    Hey Everyone, My name is Jesse I was born 1990 and am 34 at the moment of writing this. I take care of my 12 year old brother Hugh full time. Which makes me a Bro-Dad. I own my own HardScaping business and play on equipment sculpting earth for money. I have a non profit , I'll share more details later ;) And I'm working to create a second non profit, this one is an attempt to offer a different perspective on education.

    I believe education should be free for all people because the better educated we are, the more effectively we can contribute to civilization. I also believe an intelligent civilization would offer people free education and access to their needs while they develop. Come stay with us and reach for your highest potential. We will support you :)

    Alex is the best roommate and will be supporting me with the project. 40s
    Billy is excited about participating and supporting the vision as well. 30s
    Fran brings some loving and caring female energy to our space. 40s
    Gabriel is one of our first students, he is Frans son and a cofounder of the first nonprofit. 20s
    Hugh is my little Bro. 12
    Theo is a hairy viking cat. best cat ever.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Living here, you will be exposed to concepts of loyalty to earth and humanity. Also, you will have the opportunity to live in a micro economic bubble.

    Our present economic model is outdated and needs an update. The update I'm speaking of is hard to comprehend, however, if achieved, would radically shift the way we interact with our world. Here, you will experience what living in an access based, economic model will feel like.
