Peaceful and sustainable life in the wild high mountains of Costa Rica
Join us to find your true self
At the ultimate core of stillness is action - the existential seed of creation that naturally and effortlessly evolves and blossoms when time comes. Our project is just that - we cultivate action that comes from the core, that lives as an integral part of the outside natural existence as well as inner peace and stillness of every participant. We do not want to alter the outside according to the established societal patterns, but rather observe, learn and create in synergy with the environment, with nature, with ancient wisdom and zen of the mountains. This core principle gives life to our key paradigm-shifting building and living practice: insert yourself into the environment as seamlessly as possible, make sustainability the law of existence of each individual, as well as all the systems and infrastructures around human habitation. “Act from stillness”.Types of help and learning opportunities

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
“Act from stillness” - might sound paradoxical but this is what you will be learning during your experience here in the vastness of the secluded wooded mountains of Costa Rica.
Instead of connecting to social media, you will experience a much deeper, more profound connection to yourself and the nature.
Instead of supermarket-centered living - total sustainability and food independence free from toxins and addictions.
Instead of industry-based entertainment and sports - primal physical work, hiking, swimming in mountain rivers and chemical-free self care.
Instead of addiction to media, news and politics - TV-free life, personal connections with your fellow travelers and limited use of modern technology rather than being used by it.Help
We are hoping to inspire dreamers, seekers and the curious to know more about sustainable life and to bring this knowledge back home.
We encourage the full immersion concept when you become an integral part of the whole, both in learning and in play. Become part of the Stillness, and follow your nature.
