Description
My name is Pavel and I am an author of a project inspired in take care about the Oceans. As you may know, in Czech Republic we don’t have them, but we still have rivers that after become in oceans, so for the oceans to be in good conditions, it’s necessary to take care of the rivers, that’s what we are trying to communicate to people. I’m an artist who creates artifacts with the sea theme especially from the surplus material. I come from a farming family and now I live with my girlfriend Pavlina who is helping me with Eco Project. We´ve host a lot of workawayers from all around the world.
Now we are in process of creating new forest nursery school Bubble for children 3-6 years. We became members of the Association of Forest Nursery schools, which helps us with the launch of our nursery school in the new area of our meadow in Březina. We have a lot of work and creation ahead of us. We also plan to build house on wheels. We would be gratefull for every help and energy that lead to our goal: Create a place for our children to play, enjoy, meet friends and learn outdoors. Our future is in our chidren so we want to create a safe and friendly place for them to grow free and in harmony with nature and with other creatures ;)
Every volunteer is wellcome in our nice place near forest and old historic castle 30km far from Pilsen.
