  Beschreibung

  Permaculture Food Forest project in Nicaragua, focusing on natural building. We are in the beginning stages, with lodging and kitchen for up to three guests, with running water and a composting toilet. We are building a retreat center out of local materials, incorporating cob and other clay based building methods. We are about 5 km from a beautiful surfable beach and the local Nicaraguan community is very friendly.

  This is for people who want to get in touch with nature, live amongst the howler monkeys and other wildlife, and test their personal limits for luxury-free living. Whenever you want civilization, San Juan del Sur is just a short bus ride away, where you will certainly meet many wonderful like-minded travelers and expats at the many great restaurants and hostels there. This area is a surfers paradise. If you have the transportation, you have dozens of great surf spots up and down the coast here.
