  Description

  After many years our dream project is becoming a reality. We sit in the center of a tiny hamlet, in the Apennines mountains in northern Italy between Bologna and Florence, called Rocca Corneta. Named after the 4th century tower that you see in the view from the house. We also see it from the dining room, yoga shala and several of the guest rooms.
  
  We, five queer humans from all walks of life, are re inventing this old hotel and restaurant into a place that is not only a sister to our school in Amsterdam but will also operate as a community house with an eventual bakery, cafe, hotel, restaurant and community space for the local community. We will also eventually offer regional food, hiking trips, excursions, and yoga retreats. Our projects follows no spiritual dogma and is open to humans from all walks of life. Every member will add value to the greater good of others and join and support the community as a whole.
  
  The system in which we live has let down many of us on some level. As a society, we seem to lack a sense of community, human connection, and authentic support for personal development. At the place this is the central point of focus for us as a community: to sustain and support ourselves while reconnecting to our symbiosis with each other and nature, which we so deeply crave, consciously or not. We provide space for anyone to join, short or long term, and become a part of something that allows them to have a closer look at themselves and what it means to be a part of something bigger that supports your own personal development at the same time, like a contemporary ashram. Or you can just do yoga and read books by the river.
  
  At this time we are only offering a wage/seeking to host highly skilled labourers given the nature of where we are at in the project at this moment and the big works we are busy with.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Here you can experience the local rural life of the region of Bologna and be a part of a developing community house with a sustainable spirit and regular yoga practices together. The hamlet is surprisingly multicultural and there is plenty of nature to enjoy and farms to explore. We also sit close to a national park and there is a river just behind the tower. Not only can you embrace the local culture but you can also have an ideal space to take time for yourself.

  Aide

  What we need help with now is mostly construction and carpentry help. We have to re frame the windows and doors in the studio room and rebuild the bar in the living area. Plus we are renovating the entire house slowly so there is plenty to do. There is also daily life help to be done around the house, kitchen and gardens.

  Hébergement

  We have many guest rooms, all double occupancy with an ensuite bathroom. Some even have a balcony to enjoy the view. There is also a shared balcony attached to the living room and dining area if your room doesn't have one. The rooms only have cold water but there is one shared shower with hot water if you need it.
  
  We will also pay a minimum wage for the working hours. Italy has no minimum wage so we can agree on that amount when you reach out to us.
