    Description

    We are celebrating our 2 years anniversary to our project this week, and what an adventure it is! Our Guesthouse and Vegan restaurant is up and running, the community, activities, our island cleanups and the school project, so much has happened and so many exciting things to come. The focus now is on deepening with various art projects and creating new designs for native wooden structures. We're always looking for people with great energy to join our team:)
    We are currently staying in our simple native huts in the community section of the project, in a peaceful nature environment, just 5 minutes walk from the famous Paliton beach in the center of San Juan.

    During the week we start the day at 7AM with a morning activity (Yoga, Meditation, movement, writing etc.) and have a fun afternoon activity just after sunset and before dinner (Dancing, art, crafts, language, lectures, etc.)
    Our official working hours are between 9AM - 11AM, with a bit extra responsibilities which are flexible. our program is structured such that everyone has plenty of time to explore the beautiful island and the magic that's within it:)
    There's a lot of parties and live music just a short bike ride away, and we all like to enjoy the good vibes every day:)

    I won't write our whole philosophy here, since there's a time and a place for everything, but I'd just say we're here to do great things and live a good life. We live in paradise really, and we like to celebrate it:)

    The local community here is so kind and friendly, and the people are always happy to share good stories and culture. Smiles are everywhere we look. and that's one thing that no pandemic would ever change;) Siquijor is considered to be one of the safest places on earth, and the people are with no doubt some of the kindest. We hope to match the island's energy by being as inclusive and supportive as we can.

    Every afternoon we like to go together to Paliton Beach to see the sunset and drink Mojitos or fresh coconuts. It's truly something no one should miss here in Siquijor!

    Our mission here is to extend the home for our community, and build a place for people to call home. In the future we're hoping to open a retreat center, and allow teachers from all over the world to use our space.
    We are focused both on the journey of self discovery, and committed to support and help the local community.
    We're working together with the local elementary school and starting now to join the local hospital who's always in a need for extra hands.

    Anyhow, let's talk more in private :)

    It might takes a day or two, but we are committed to respond to every message. So please know your words will receive our full attention, even if it takes a little while.

    Stay cool;)

    From Johnny, Michal, Thea, Dani, Niv, Nora, Iris, Elyn, Tsumi (Our Mama Cat) And the whole family
