Description
This is a historical village abandoned in the '50s. Now we are developing there a sustainable landscape project. We are developing a passive architecture and an organic farming project in a 200ha of land in South of Catalonia.
We are hosting just couples or groups of up to 3 people. The place to stay is a yurta and is 30min far from the village. We have a solar energy sistem but not internet connection. You'll be most of the time alone in the fields surrounded by forest. We select just people able to stay a minimum of 4 weeks and there is a trial period of 4 days. The work hours are from 8am to 13pm monday to saturday.
