  Beschreibung

  We aim to co-create a new way of life rooted in love and the collective well being.
  
  We are a small and growing community of entrepreneurs, travelers, and individuals seeking to live in harmony with our surroundings. The surrounding development is filled with many ex-pat retirees and people looking to live Pura Vida.
  
  We are not perfect, but we strive to learn and grow each day. Sharing our gifts with those passing through as well as gladly receiving the gifts you may have to share.
  
  The days are full, but most evenings are a chance to relax and get to know one another. In the past, we have done authentic relating games, cards, movie nights, poetry slams, dance lessons, beach parties, listening labs and even a book report by one volunteer who was very eager to share the wisdom from a recently finished read.
  
  We welcome your skills during the day and your company as a fellow community member in the evening.
