    About Us 🌿

    We are creating a nature-based, ocean-side space surrounded by beach and forest. Our focus is on creating a calm, respectful environment rooted in connection, creativity, and simple living, where people from different backgrounds can come together, share skills, and live in harmony with nature.

    This is a personal, non-commercial space that is slowly being developed. We are currently in a hands-on phase, creating simple, eco-friendly accommodations and shared areas, where volunteers can have a real and visible impact.

    Cultural Exchange 🌍🌿

    This is a growing, personal space where cultural exchange happens naturally through daily life. We share work, meals, conversations, and time in nature, creating opportunities to connect and learn from one another.

    We enjoy exchanging ideas, skills, traditions, food, and stories, especially around sustainable living, creativity, eco-friendly practices, and community life. Welcoming people from different backgrounds allows for mutual learning, respect, and meaningful shared experiences.

    The Kind of Help We’re Looking For 🛠️🌱🎨

    We’re in the early stages of developing a small, personal space, and we’re looking for hands-on, motivated Workawayers who enjoy creating something from the ground up through simple, manual, and low-risk activities.

    Daily activities may include:

    Simple eco-friendly construction tasks (manual help with platforms, shared spaces, and basic structures — no technical or electrical work)

    Clearing and shaping access paths and natural walkways

    Building eco-stairs and trails using natural materials

    Helping create and organize shared outdoor spaces

    Basic carpentry and woodwork (measuring, sanding, assembling, painting)

    Gardening, land care, composting, and basic permaculture support

    Assisting with non-technical water-related tasks (cleaning, organizing, watering — no installation or repair work)

    Creative projects like painting, murals, interior setup, landscaping, and upcycling

    Some days are more physical, others more creative or lighter. We aim for a balanced rhythm, with time to rest, connect, and enjoy the surrounding nature.

    Accommodation 🌿⛺

    Volunteers stay on elevated platforms in nature. We can provide a tent, or you may bring your own. The space is clean, safe, and secure.

    There is electricity and Starlink internet available. Water is limited, so mindful use is important. We are currently building our shared kitchen, toilets, and common areas, so facilities are simple for now.

    We provide basic ingredients, and volunteers cook meals together as part of community life.
