Description
Hola! We are developig a permaculture farm, meditation & yoga retreat center and natural conservation area in the mountains of San Sebastian del Oeste, Jalisco. The place is at 800 msnm in the meeting area of the tropical jungle comming up from the beach, and the pine & oak forest comming down from the mountains. It is one hour from the beach (Puerto Vallarta). The place is in a very big and wild nature area with a very high biodoversity. The project is off grid with solar energy and rain water. The infrastructure still very basic, but we are building to improve the place with natural local materials like earth, straw, wood and rock, . The place is 5 hectares, mostly jungle and forest.
I´m 37 years old mexican permaculture biologist and love nature, music, meditation, yoga, temazcal, world travelling and sharing with people.
Hola! Estamos desarrollando un proyecto de granja de permacultura, centro de meditacion y yoga y zona de conservación natural en las montañas de San Sebastian del Oeste, Jalisco. El terreno esta a 800 msnm, en el encuentro de la selva tropical que sube de la costa y el bosque templado de pino y encino que baja de la montaña. Estamos a una hora del mar (Puerto Vallarta). El lugar esta rodeado de una gran extencion de naturaleza con alta biodiversidad. Estamos tratando de vivir de la manera mas sustentable posible, usamos energía solar y cosechamos agua de lluvia. La infraestructura aun es básica, pero estamos construyendo con materiales naturales locales para mejorar el espacio. El terreno son 5 hectareas, mayormente de selva y bosque.
Soy mexicano, 37 añitos, biologo permacultor, amante de la naturaleza, la musica, meditacion, yoga, temazcal, viajero del mundo y de compartir con la gente.
