  A little more about us and our place:
  We’re a small family – Bobby, Charis, and our two sons Manojya and Nohea – living on an organic farm in the mountains of North Bali. Surrounded by rice fields and rooted in Bobby’s home village, we live in the middle of nature and within the rhythm of Balinese village life.
  
  Sustainability and simple, meaningful living are at the heart of what we do. Our farm runs fully on solar power, and we grow and fertilize everything organically – including our rice fields.
  
  We’ve created a peaceful space with two guesthouses, open to anyone who values nature, connection, and a slower pace. There’s space to rest, practice yoga, and enjoy the stillness.
  
  We may grow over time, but this year our focus is on deepening our roots – especially in the garden.
  
  Here in North Bali, you’ll find real village life, a lot of smiling faces, tasty food, and untouched nature: waterfalls, mountains, rice fields and quiet. Just 10 minutes from Munduk, 45 from the beach.
