Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
This is an opportunity to immerse yourself in a community committed to sustainable living and biodiversity. You’ll learn valuable skills in organic gardening, composting, and DIY eco-projects, as well as firsthand experience with self-sufficient living. In addition, you’ll be introduced to sustainable farming practices, animal husbandry, and the basics of permaculture.
Beyond practical skills, you'll have the chance to exchange ideas and perspectives with like-minded individuals in a relaxed, creative environment, surrounded by the natural beauty of southern Spain.
During your free time, you can relax by our two swimming pools, enjoy the warm weather, or take a dip in the jacuzzi. There’s also a lovely garden where you can unwind or spend time with our friendly cats and dogs. The town is a short 15-minute walk away, where you can explore local shops, cafes, and historical landmarks.
The stunning beaches are only an hour’s drive from the house, providing the perfect escape for a weekend outing. There’s also plenty of hiking and nature trails nearby for those who love to explore the outdoors. We are located in a peaceful part of the south of Spain, offering both a tranquil retreat and easy access to cultural experiences.

Help
We’re looking for enthusiastic, hands-on helpers who are passionate about sustainable living, gardening, and DIY projects. The main tasks will include working with soil, building raised beds, planting crops, and caring for the land. You might also help us with setting up spaces for animals such as chickens and bees, as we work to create a truly living, breathing ecosystem.
The work hours are from 9:00 to 11:00 in the morning, and from 17:00 to 20:00 in the evening, with specific tasks planned for each team. You will be working alongside our community, contributing your skills and energy to our ongoing projects. You will have the rest off your days to relax and enjoy Spain and will also have two completley free days both week.

Guidelines for Living in Harmony
Through our experiences working with diverse individuals, we’ve learned that living together harmoniously requires clear guidelines. These rules help us create a supportive, safe, and joyful environment where everyone can grow and evolve. We are committed to ensuring that this place remains a sanctuary where everyone feels respected and at ease.
Centre Rules:
No Drugs, Alcohol, or Tobacco: To maintain a clear and focused environment, we do not permit the use of drugs, alcohol, or tobacco within the centre or on our grounds.
Vegetarian/Vegan Diet: We ask that all food consumed within the centre and on our lands be vegetarian or vegan. This means no meat or fish, in keeping with our commitment to non-violence and ethical living.
Zero Tolerance for Violence: Any form of violence, whether physical or verbal, is strictly prohibited.
Communication and Feedback:
Clear Communication: We value open and honest communication as the foundation of a healthy community. With individuals from diverse backgrounds, it’s vital to express ourselves clearly to avoid misunderstandings.
Continuous Feedback: To maintain a positive group dynamic, we encourage regular, constructive feedback. This ongoing dialogue helps us address any issues early and strengthens our collective experience.
Respect of Individual Freedom:
Part of our land is naturist, including one of the swimming pools and the jacuzzi. It is expected of everyone to be tolerant and not to criticise those who don't share the same lifestyle. We want everyone, both naturists and non-naturists, to feel comfortable and welcomed.
By following these guidelines, we ensure that this place remains a place where everyone can thrive, contributing to an atmosphere of mutual respect, peace, and shared growth.
