She is probably physically stronger than me, yet she possess all sort of creative talents, from playing music and drawing to cooking and building, and so on. She is very inspirational, obviously. The place is also very special, I love… read more

I feel like I had the opportunity to discover myself at Petra's haven. And it wouldn't have been so if it wasn't for the encouraging and free spirited soul that Petra is.

It was an honour staying at Petra's place for more than 3 weeks as she built her own small paradise in a dense and rather mystical forest (i.e. a pretty well preserved ancient woodland) in the middle of Galicia, where you are overwhelmed from the strong Celtic touch!
The place and surroundings has been nearly untouched by humans and are… read more

Staying with Petra and Kurox and Toxio was great. The place is amazing lost in the galician nature and if you like calm you are going to love there.
