*Hosting from march 2024*

Om and Welcome,
We're Jan and Paula- both born in germany but living abroad for many years.
The passions that connects us, are a conscious and yogic lifestyle, Spirituality and the love for nature.

Aside from Yoga, Jan has studied naturopathic sciences, bodywork and massage, cranial-sacral- and hypnotherapy, and has worked in the fields of Shamanism and Anthropology for quite some years.
He is a certified Heilpraktiker (german version of naturopath) since 2001.
Nowadays he shares his experience in classes, workshops, retreats, as well as Yoga Teacher Training programs.

Paula has been living and exploring farms and communal living in Portugal for the past 5 years.
She studied raw (vegan) nutrition and is very passionate about high quality, nurturing food that comes from an abundant earth.
Her Magic is to create a calm, peaceful, trusting and supportive container to explore oneself, life and nature in all fascettes.
At our place, she is dedicated to create an organic and regenerative agriculture that serves the health of the land, but also the health of our guests.

And welcome to our place:
This is a 19ha property situated on a beautiful and somewhat lonely mountain in the casentino valley of tuscany.
The previous owner kept it as an organic farm for the past 50 years. The past ten years, it has been abondened and due to that is currently overgrown by brambles, bush and trees.

THE VISION: A PLACE OF PEACE AND HEALING
From these forests and fields we would like to create a beautiful and peaceful reservoire to meet, connect and heal.

The land wants to be regenerated and a lush variety of fruit- and nut trees, berry orchards want to be planted.
A No-Dig Garden will be created during this journey.
In the future we'll have a small herd of goats for land-management and fresh goat milk products, as well as chickens and ducks to create self-sufficiency for this shared homestead.

The house and further buildings want to be brought back to life and their full beauty.
The old machinery shed wants to be converted into a a big yoga space.

A lot of things to be done... but with the needed trust and resilience, we're determined to walk this path step by step.

Join us on this journey to create and regenerate in a conscious and loving way. <3

Algo más...
We're 4km up a track into the mountain.
Having your own car can give you a lot of freedom- especially for weekend trips.

Otherwise you'll be a bit stuck on this mountain. Which can be very beautiful and slowing down the pace- depending on your own preferences.

Jan and I are both working online- so you'll be able to do tasks on your own.
We enjoy meals in nature, meditating, practicing, chanting and singing mantras, but also goofing around, building stuff, going for walks and hikes or watching a documentary (or a good movie).

We do like to explore different aspects of life, consciousness and energy. And are very happy to share this time and exploration with like-minded people.
