Description
We welcome you to a non-profit foundation with a retreat centre and an eco-village initiative.

The land exists to provide you a safe space to rest and explore your inner peace.

We are heading towards co-creating a collaborative space for retreats, gatherings, and events, aligned with the vision, and intention of the space.

The land is located in a beautiful area of nature. We are restoring the monastery/church amongst other things. It is a place that is open for people to stay at to connect and find their inner peace. The experiences held at our retreat centre are non-profit and Workawayers won’t need to help with any paying guests or visitors.

On-site our team offers things like yoga, qi-qong, meditation, massages, life coaching, etc. to those who stay here (based on availability and possibility). You are invited to join the activities and practices and initiate activities yourself as well.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
Music making, language skills and cultural exchange.

Building a community together and therefore we intend to come together around the fire to make music, share food, etc.

We also have spiritual and integration coaches here who are happy to share their insights, wisdom and time with you. We can also teach people to set up their own retreat, business as we have some people here with extensive business and marketing knowledge.

We are also very keen to learn about you and build relationships whether they lead to future co-creations or not.
Association caritative
Cet hôte est une association caritative déclarée dans son pays et recherche des bénévoles pour l'aider dans ses projets.
Aide
As a community, we come together to clean and care for the retreat centre every week. Beyond that, we love inviting volunteers to step into projects and tasks that genuinely spark their interest and creativity.

At this moment, we are primarily welcoming support with cleaning and housekeeping; general and light maintenance; and some help in strengthening our digital presence. These areas are our current focus and where help is most needed.

A little later, depending on how priorities unfold, we will gradually open back up to other areas such as painting, gardening, permaculture, and wider community projects. This can include maintaining and improving shared spaces, and eventually supporting community projects around kazumis, yurts or tipis as well.

We love working with people who enjoy contributing in a hands on way; whether that is helping care for the land, being handy with practical tasks, supporting with video or photography, cooking together with and for the community, or bringing skills in IT or web development. Some support with education, play, or presence with children is also very welcome.

We work together in a fun, collaborative environment, supporting one another and sharing as much of the process as possible. An independent and self directed attitude is highly appreciated; someone who naturally sees what needs attention, brings ideas, and enjoys bringing them into practice.

Does this kind of contribution feel like something you would enjoy and feel inspired by?

We look forward to co creating, learning, and supporting one another along the way.

Laissé par le workawayer (Jenny) pour l'hôte

I stayed at this place for a full two months, and it was one hell of an experience. Some context: I come from an IT background, started traveling this year, this is my first time in a community. I have many things to say, some negative and many positives. I'll go over the negatives first so I can gush about the positives for however long I… read more want.

My main two concerns tie into each other. One is that getting hands on food was a bit tricky if you don't have a lot of experience with cooking. The second issue is that, if you don't have a car, you're kind of stuck in this place and have to rely on the kindness of others. Food for volunteers works by stocking a shared kitchen full of ingredients so that people can do with it whatever they want. This would work for most people but it was an issue for me, on account of having a vastly different culinary background, not at all compatible with the vegan/bio approach here. This could be solved by me simply buying my own food, but this is where we run into the second issue. If you don't have a car, it's difficult to actually get anywhere. There are no bus or train lines going to this place, you need to have a car or at least a bike. I had neither, so I had to keep relying on other people to hitch a ride or borrow a vehicle. For social folks this, again, won't be much of a problem, but for me it was a bit tricky because I'm an introvert who spends most of her time in her room.

These two things only really affected me, I don't think anyone else had issues with this. The one thing that is likely to affect future volunteers is how unstable the place can be at times. There was a lot of conflict between people from start to finish, much back-and-forth fighting in public, a lot of drain of energy. The place was, at the time I was there, lacking a strong foundation and communication was generally poor. I've seen two people actually being kicked out, and a handful of volunteers left willingly because they were just kind of left to their own devices with very little guidance. Thankfully, for the last two-three weeks of my stay this was very much on a path of improvement... which brings me to all the positive feedback!

The people here are amazing! I'm normally a very introverted type who spends eight hours a day behind a laptop, but here I would come out of my room just to hang out with people I enjoyed spending time with. I don't think there was a single person on the property that I didn't like; while I had my favorites, every individual I met was a beautiful soul who had amazing wisdom and energy to share. Oh, what's that, I'm talking about energies and all this yoga voodoo nonsense? That's because this is the only place I've been in where I could actually feel people connecting and being amazing. There's also a surprising variety of personalities here. Closest to me where a non-binary joker who could not only keep up with but also defeat me in my own dirty and dark jokes, and a woman who was capable of feeling a thousand things at once, go completely crazy, and somehow still speak the most sense of any of us. There's the lady who runs the farm and is just nothing but encouragement and love, giving each animal more love than I've ever given all of my pets - combined. There's the resident yoga specialist who has taught me that my body could take shapes and balance in ways I didn't think were possible. There's the family of four where the husband has such deep insight into the human psyche and was so willing to share it that he could very well speak on stage at a university. There's the mother who balances two highly energetic and dependent kids and yet has always had time for a smile. There's a quiet hermit character whom you might not even run into, but has an ability to make you connect to love and to yourself enough that I've seen people actually come back from depression after a session with him. I'm probably forgetting some people, there were quite a few folks present. Suffice to say, you're missing out by not meeting these lovely folks.

They're intensely open minded too! There were always things about myself that I was afraid to share with others, like my interest in nudism, my conflicting transgender journey, some deep fears. In this community, I've found an audience that not just listens, but has wonderful things to share. I feel like I actually became a better person during my stay here, despite not even believing in energies and chakras and all that. This willingness to help, and to receive help, is I think also part of the reason that the place is bouncing back to be the best it can be.

The property is a lovely place to be. It being far away from everything also means it's quiet. You can see the stars at night. You can see animal life just... existing, not just from the farm but also a very active ecosystem in the forest. Forest? Yes, the place is adjacent to enough green that you can actually go for hikes in it. It's probably the most nature I've seen since arriving in the Netherlands.

When I arrived, I only planned to stay a week or two, just enough to take care of some personal business and then move on with my journey. I ended up staying effectively four times as long because I had such a wonderful time. Some issues and trouble notwithstanding, I can wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone. :)
