  Beschreibung

  Our project is a transdisciplinary research and experimentation center for the evolution of new forms of therapy and collective intelligence. On 30 hectares of land in the mountains, we as a collective propose to protect and improve the ecosystem by practising responsible agriculture and producing green energy, we are working towards being almost fully autonomous regarding food and energy.
  In parallel with this attitude, the collective is developing an activity oriented towards training and the practice of integrative medicine and well-being, with 5 schools to be built.

  - Accommodation in a shared house (2 rooms x 2 single beds) with bathroom and kitchen.
  - Food - mainly vegetarian

  As we are aiming to become a teaching center, we regularly host retreats and workshops that bring to our secluded area, experienced teachers of various disciplines, whose presence we can all benefit and learn from. Our village proposes then the perfect environment for learning about ourselves, the nature around us and different healing modalities. We occasionally host music retreats as well, which are a joy to be part of. The volunteers will get the chance to participate in the livelihood of our thriving community.

  While our village is embedded in beauty, other nearby villages are worth visiting. If the helpers are to bring their own car, it is quite easy to move around or else there is a taxi service available that can be organised. Close to our village, there are beautiful river beaches with clean waters that can offer a nice alternative to discover and relax at. Every week, we also visit the market of Arganil for grocery and it can be a nice occasion for sightseeing.
