Beschreibung
Hello!
We’re a family of five — two parents and three children (ages 9, 12, and 14) — living between Kochi and a piece of mountain land we're slowly developing in Idukki. We’re exploring unschooling, simple living, creativity, and growing meaningful connections through shared experiences.
👨👩👧👦 Who
We Host We welcome families only — especially those curious about unschooling, slow living, and nature-connected ways of being. Whether you’re already on this path or just beginning to explore it, you’re invited to share time and space with us. We love a relaxed, hands-on atmosphere that feels more like extended family than a formal setup.
🌱 1. Live & Learn with Us — Kochi
Come stay with us and join in our everyday family life. Our younger two kids are unschooled, and we love learning through doing — whether it’s cooking, music, games, outdoor play, or creative projects. There’s no rigid structure here — just openness, presence, and the joy of discovering together.
🌀 2. Self-Directed Learning Community — Kochi
We’re part of a small, self-directed learning center for children aged 4–12, running weekdays from 9:30am to 3pm. Your family is welcome to participate — sharing your skills, passions, or simply your presence.
Some past activities:
* Treehouse building
* Storytelling, music, and art
* Nature play and creative science
* Sensory paths and outdoor games
Bring what excites you — we love when something beautiful unfolds naturally.
🏔️ A Note on Nature & the Mountains
While our main home base is in Kochi, we also spend occasional time on a piece of mountain land (about 3 hours away). It’s a long-term family project where we’re learning about gardening, eco-building, and slowing down with the land. If your stay overlaps with one of our visits there, and it feels aligned, you're welcome to join us for a few days as part of the experience.
🌸 Let’s Connect
If this sounds like the kind of experience your family would enjoy, we’d love to hear from you. Tell us a little about who you are, what you're exploring, and what draws you to this journey. We’re happy to chat and see if it’s a good fit.

Arbeit
🏡 At Home in Kochi – Living & Learning Together
Join our everyday family life and share what you love. We’d love you to bring your passions — art, building, music, cooking, gardening, storytelling, anything you enjoy — and share them with our kids (ages 9, 12, 14). We believe when children see someone working with joy and purpose, it inspires them deeply. Your role isn’t to “teach,” but simply to live and share what excites you. That energy is contagious — and that’s what we value most.
🎒 Learning Community – Kochi
A self-directed space for kids (4–12 yrs). We welcome families with:
* Background in unschooling, Waldorf, Sudbury, Agile Learning System, alternative education system, etc.
* Skills in art, music, gardening, handwork, storytelling
* Love for starting projects and spending time with children
* Permaculture planning, gardening, planting, and ponds
We especially welcome people with skills in:
- Art
- Carpentry
- Pottery
- Permaculture
- Sustainable building
- Games
If you enjoy sharing your passions and contributing to a vibrant, hands-on community, we’d love to hear from you.

Was noch ...
There a lot to see in and around our area including beaches, churches, local shopping streets and much more.
Close by is the biggest shopping mall in India (Lulu Mall) which might be interesting to see. Fort Kochi is also a nice place to go to for the day which is accessible by local transport. Volunteers might also want to go to Alleppy for the quintessential Kerala houseboat ride experience, which is only 1.5 hours away by bus.
