  Less talking, more doing
  Less doing, more being
  
  Single burned out dude bought a derelict house on a small plot of land, that he wants to turn into a food forest paradise and build buildings from all natural materials, or in other words create an eco system allowing me to live in nature, with nature, for nature and of nature in a symbiosis.

  What else ...

  This is an opportunity for someone that is primarily interested in connecting with nature and spending time in nature. It is a small village of about 20 residents. During a public holiday there is something going on in the community hall. I am not aware of, how much of the population is acquainted with English, so it is up to you, to find ways of communicating, if you are interested in mingling.
  
  About 2 km away is the next bigger village with a shop and a pub. Through this village public transport is available.
  
  The village is nestled within forests all around and a gravel cycling trail is running trough the village itself.
  
  In the nearby town (8km) there is a bio-swimming pool.
  
  As I myself am new to the area, please check out the website of the town of Cazma: or the towns tourist board website: or better still it's Facebook page:
