Description
Hello dear travelers,
We are Nicole, Gabriele and Chilu.
After traveling many years we decided to settle in Pula, Sardegna. We live in the countryside of a little town that is most alive during the summer as it has lovely beaches where to spend endless hours bathing in the mediterranean sun and sea. We live between the mountain and the see so there is diverse landscape to explore during the different seasons.
All big dreams start somewhere, we are starting a project that we are hopeful will bring many people together and offer a sanctuary for people and nature to live in reciprocity and thrive.
We share the property with Gabi's dad, Billy, and his dog Jack. Billy has incredible building skills and a big imagination.
This is our second year in the property. Since we arrived we have started to give life to our ideas in our mind and have since planted many fruit trees, shrubs, flowers, herbs. We build a green house where we sow our seeds and keep some tropical plants. We build a chicken coop. An amazing volunteer and friend Robin built a compost toilet.
Our future building projects are: building an arch for climbers (courgette, loofah, pumpkin), make better windshields for some trees, built an outdoor fire bathtub, build a pergola, building a cob house, a dome for ceremonies and gatherings, and so much more.
We kind of decide what to do depending on our budget and materials we find to recycle or repurpose.
As we are a developing project we would love to welcome you, your ideas, creativity, inspiration... because we want this project to be a co-creation, a collaborative effort between many humans<3.
We were also used to live in spaces with many people, sharing space, conversations, meals and we miss it....
So we welcome you to our space, feel free to get in touch and ask any questions you may have.
