    Description

    Welcome to our sanctuary in the heart of Northern Sardinia, where nature, tranquility, and rejuvenation await you.

    Nestled near Tempio Pausania, our haven is a place for Beautiful Souls like you to unwind, reflect, be inspired, and recharge. Immerse yourself in the serene environment of Sardinia, where the sea is always within reach and the land is rich with ancient power sites, including water temples and giant tombs from the Nuraghe culture.

    Our sanctuary features a house with five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a yoga room, two lounges, and a kitchen, all set on nearly three hectares of fertile land with three water wells.

    Since our arrival in July 2024, we've embarked on the journey of restoring and revitalizing our home and land, which have been neglected for the past decade. There's a lot to unpack, discover, and create, and the house itself needs love and attention to shine once more.

    We're seeking talented souls skilled in:
    - Eco-building (woodwork, creative handyman tasks, furniture remodeling, etc.)
    - Gardening: Pruning fruit trees, creating a vegetable garden, restructuring, building and repairing fences, removing trees and blackberry bushes, renovating vineyards, etc.
    - Cooking: Preparing healthy meals from local ingredients, as we often get so absorbed in our projects that we forget to enjoy the delicious Italian cuisine.
    - Future plans: Animal care (experience with dogs 🐕, cats 🐱, donkeys 🫏 , bees 🐝 and chickens 🐓 is a plus)

    📍 Location: Northern Sardinia, on the mountain near Tempio Pausania.

    🌟 What We Offer:
    * Accommodation in the house or a cozy tent 🏕️ surrounded by lush greenery. If you come with a camper, you can choose a peaceful place to park it.
    * Communal meals 🍽️ (we welcome anyone who wants to take charge of the kitchen).
    * Trips and excursions around Northern Sardinia, with stunning beaches just 40 minutes away to the east, north, or west.
    * Weekly visits to the local market.
    * Communal events: bonfires (allowed between September and May), intuitive movement sessions, sauna, ice baths, yoga, meditation, music, and dancing.
    * Nature’s playground: Our own forest, three forgotten vineyards, fruit trees, and wild herbs for foraging.
    * Pet-friendly: We have a dog and 4 cats and plan to welcome more animals, including more dogs 🐕, donkeys 🫏 , bees 🐝 and chickens 🐓.
    * This is an alcohol, smoke and vape free place. Of course you can do what you want outside our property 🤗

    Whether you're looking to settle down in Sardinia or are a traveler from distant lands, we invite you to join us in our various initiatives and co-create with us. We have a range of projects, big and small, and are open to both short and long stays. Please note that we do not have paying guests at the moment.

    We look forward to creating something beautiful together 🌈⛅️.
