Description
Hola! Great you are reading my profile :) I am a 67 young Dutchnwoman, speaking Dutch, English, French and a bit of Spanish, who started an EcoVillage in 2022 in Andalucia, Spain. I traveled the world as a meaningful innovation coach & teacher and now want to settle down and share my life experiences in another way. I also give Galactic Akashic Records readings and coach children to see without their eyes, seeing with their spirit, also called remote viewing. I practice Chi Qong and love drumming and chanting and to cook vegetarian meals.
We have around 30 people, adults and children, and are very busy building our homes on our 40HA rural land. We live in the mountains, a 15 minute drive from the sea and 1 hour driving from Granada. Surrounded by almond and carob trees. The drive up is through the Rambla, a dirt path but wide enough for campers and caravans although not too low, too close to the ground...
My sustainable house is build with hemp/clay bricks and natural mortar ( no concrete !) and I need help rendering and plastering the walls. You are welcome as soon as you can. Your accommodation will be a fire truck transformed into a small campervan, suitable for 1 person.
You can also bring your own camper or caravan, water and the stunning sea- and mountain views are provided! :) Hopefully its resonates with you and we have a conversation how to co-create!

Accommodation
You will stay in a campervan, a transformed small fire truck. The van is equipped with a bed and a kitchen, and is parked at Cortijo Jamaica, just a 12 minute walk to the building project. You have a shower and compost toilet and another kitchen with fridge to your disposal at a 1 minute walk, so you really an enjoy the van as your bed- and living room :) Also a washing machine is available. And did I mention already you are surrounded by nature?!
Also your own camper or caravan is welcome!
In 15 minutes you can put your feet in the sea and shop at a small supermarket. Every Saturday there is a market close by. The nearest bigger town is Motril, a 30 minute drive.
What else ...
We live in a remote area, where a car is needed for shopping, going on a trip etc. The climate in March and April is mild, the temperature during the day around 18-24 C, nights are around 9C. As I treasure my privacy and yours, this is also what I expect from you, no loud music, please make your own music, and live with respect for nature in nature, as we are an sustainable ecoVillage. For the rest... I am easy going!

Space for parking camper vans
Although you have to travel via the Rambla to our EcoVillage, it is wide enough but it would be very wise to be not too low to the ground, the road is rather rocky. We use the Rambla daily with our 'normal ' cars, as do lorries do too.
Can possibly accept pets
I have a medium size dog, Dragon, who is roaming around on our 40HA land with his other four legged companions. Be aware we do have wil boars, wild goats, etc... If your dog(s) Is well trained, no shit around the house!, you
