  Description

  We live here since 5 years now.
  
  We are a Belgian couple and we have a campo in the beautiful village of Maro, in Andalucia. It's a lovely, quiet town with awesome wild beaches and good spirit. There we are trying to do a permaculture project combine with eco-construction project. We are growing different vegetables and we have build our wood house with second hand, "trash", given, materials. Our land is just in front of the sea, it was still a greenhouse when we arrived so we have start from nothing, just the ground! It is a very sunny place just 10 min beautiful walk from the beach, our neighborhood is so nice, there are all people respectful of the nature that are trying to run an "alternative life" :).
  
  
  Thanks and comparte la buena onda!
