Description
Hello everyone ..we are a Yogi couple having our own small yoga center here on Crete AND STARTING A NEW PROJECT IN A VILLAGE ...we are thinking of a place where people can come and stay for some time or longer and do permaculture together as well as playing music ( there is a studio in progress but will not be finished before next year ) and do some yoga & meditation ...
we have started with a Cob house and are nearly finish with this now ..
Now from beginning of April 2025 we need people who like to learn how to make a Zome...this is a dome but a bit different..made out of wood and glass...a friend of ours will lead the building.. but you need some woodwork experience at least and painting
so if you like to come and live for at least 3 weeks ( Minimum ) or even longer in a natural environment please let us know..
This is a small village with a wonderful micro climate and directly on the beach ..we have km of beaches and 3 Tavernas and a mini market ..it is quite and nice like Crete many years ago..we also have some more touristic places around ..
the place you would stay is a little up hill around 20 minutes walk to the beach and you would stay in a tent with wooden floor and mattress inside (basic but good)... there is a community space . kitchen , shower and compost toilet already build...and we have a good solar system
