    Description

    We are seeking a dedicated couple with expertise in gardening, building, and a willingness to contribute to the overall development of our project.

    I'm a holistic health practitioner i.e. yoga and holistic health teacher coach since 1996. I'm bringing a 30 year old vision into manifestation, which is a sustainable type of living with permaculture, a few different sources of water, building a community of artists/performers from around the world.

    I live with my wife Eva, who is a coach and peace trainer and our two boys (11 and 9 year old) in our holistic health center, a serene retreat nestled in the heart of the Costa Rica. We are creating a space for holistic living, organic gardening, and artistic development. Finca means Farm in Spanish.

    As a holistic health practitioner and yoga teacher, Fabrice is passionate about creating a space that nurtures mind, body, and spirit. Our one-hectare land boasts a variety of fruit trees and a stunning view of the valley and ocean, providing an ideal setting for organic food production and multi-disciplinary education for our boys.

    In addition to our plans for building a greenhouse and expanding our community, we are looking for someone who shares our love for yoga, healthy meals, and creating a peaceful and harmonious environment. If you have a passion for sustainable living, enjoy being surrounded by nature, and are eager to contribute to this type of life style, we would love to welcome you .

    In exchange for your help, we offer a peaceful and inspiring place to stay, healthy meals, and the opportunity to be part of our holistic living experience. Whether you are a gardener or builder, we invite you to join us in this unique opportunity to grow and create together.


    We would like to bring our center to higher standards by building a green house to provide more organic foods from our garden and a yoga shala/dance floor/cacao ceremony.
    Also create a community to host a few more families.
    We are 35 minutes from the beach by car, 10 minutes walk to a river.
    We love to start our day with a 15 min health routine(ground/earthing, Chi Qong, Fountain of youth exercise), eat healthy food, have fun and beautify our space.

    We look forward to share a meaningful experience with you.
