    Description

    My name is Mauricio, and I'm developing this space: this meeting place, this multipurpose space - which aims to offer a lifestyle. Here, you experience nature, you practice yoga, you embrace ancestral knowledge, and you choose to live in harmony with the environment, in the most sustainable way possible.

    I love this place because it's so deeply immersed in the most vibrant rainforest in Costa Rica; this allows you to retreat to a way of life that's different from what we typically find in cities or more populated areas. It's currently under construction, with several cabins already built and the common area practically finished, including a well-equipped kitchen.
    I currently work here myself, and I have the help of two other employees.
    I don't currently have any clients as the project is still under construction.

    Mi nombre es Mauricio y estoy desarrollando este espacio, esta casa de encuentro, este lugar multipropósito, que pretende proponer un estilo de vida. Aquí se vive naturaleza, se vive Yoga, se vive la apertura a conocimientos ancestrales y a elegir vivir en equilibrio con el entorno, de la manera más sostenible posible.
    Me encanta este sitio por estar tan inmerso en la selva más llena de vida en Costa Rica; esto permite retirarse a una forma de vivir alternativa a lo que normalmente encontramos en ciudades o en lugares más poblados. Actualmente es un lugar en construcción, que ya posee varias Cabañas de hospedaje y el área común prácticamente lista, con una cocina muy bien equipada.
    Actualmente trabajo yo en el lugar y cuento con la ayuda de 2 trabajadores más.
    Actualmente no tengo clientes ya que el proyecto está en fase de construcción.

    Help

    I'm looking for people with cooking skills, photo and video documentation for social media, knowledge of woodworking or natural building, permaculture, and I'm open to any suggestions that might contribute to the growth of this place. If you'd like to help in the kitchen, it would be for the consumption of the project's collaborators. I don't currently have any clients as the project is still under construction.

Si desesaran ayudar en la cocina, sería para el consumo de los colaboradores dentro del proyecto.
    Actualmente no tengo clientes ya que el proyecto está en fase de construcción.
