    Description

    Welcome!

    We are a young community project based in the east of Asturias.

    Our core group consists of ten people, with many others showing interest and curiosity. After a year of community-building, gatherings, and weekly online meetings, we began working on our land in March 2025. Most of us still live across different parts of Spain. Since March, four people have been living here permanently, and over the summer, at least eight of us will be present.

    The land spans 15 hectares of wilderness, including old forests, rivers, pastures, a ruined village, and a house we're currently renovating using recycled materials and bioconstruction. We're also creating our first garden, inspired by permaculture and syntropic agroforestry.

    Important to know:

    There is currently no warm shower, no internet connection, and only a small solar panel to occasionally charge a phone. Everything is provisional.

    There is a comfortable room available in the house. You’re always welcome to pitch a tent or park your van on the land.

    Although we enjoy having fun and celebrating daily life freely, you should know that we are not a place focused on substance use in general. If you are looking for a place centered around this type of party scene, this may not be the right fit for you. We do have designated areas for smoking, and we are very respectful of people who are sensitive to smoke.

    We usually do activities together in our free time, but sometimes it might not be like that, and that's why we like people with a bit of autonomy.

    We’re happy to hear from you!

    ¡Bienvenid@!

    Somos un proyecto comunitario joven ubicado en el oriente de Asturias.

    Nuestro grupo principal está formado por diez personas, aunque muchas más han mostrado interés y curiosidad. Después de un año de trabajo comunitario, encuentros y reuniones semanales online, comenzamos a trabajar en nuestra tierra en marzo de 2025. La mayoría de nosotr@s aún vivimos en diferentes partes de España. Desde marzo, cuatro personas han estado viviendo permanentemente, y durante el verano, al menos ocho de nosotr@s estaremos presentes.

    La tierra abarca 15 hectáreas de naturaleza salvaje, con antiguos bosques, ríos, praderas, un pueblo en ruinas y una casa que estamos renovando utilizando materiales reciclados y bioconstrucción. También estamos creando nuestro primer jardín, inspirado en la permacultura y la agroforestería sintrópica.

    ¡Información importante!

    Por ahora no hay ducha de agua caliente, ni conexión a internet, y solo contamos con un pequeño panel solar para cargar el móvil de vez en cuando. Todo está en proceso y es provisional. Esperamos tener luz y wifi por satélite durante esta temporada.

    Hay una habitación cómoda en la casa. Si está ocupada, te avisaremos. Siempre puedes montar tu tienda de campaña o aparcar tu furgoneta aquí.

    Aunque nos gusta divertirnos y celebrar el dia a dia libremente debes saber que no somos un lugar enfocado en el consumo de sustancias en general. Si estas buscando un lugar enfocado en este tipo de fiestas probablemente este no es tu sitio. Tenemos zonas habilitadas para fumar y somos muy respetuosos con la gente sensible al humo.

    Normalmente trabajamos y hacemos actividades juntas en nuestro tiempo libre, pero en ocasiones podría no ser así y por eso nos gusta la gente con un poco de autonomía.

    ¡Esperamos saber de tí!
