  Description

  Greetings to all 😊
  
  First of all, there is something you should know about our community:
  Unfortunately we decided to stop or wonderful project with the end of summer this year. We were not able to manage this huge project.
  
  BUT the good thing: until the end we gonna have some really nice events. And therefore we are reeeaaaalllyyy happy and looking forward to get some help from you. We really wanna enjoy the last months at this really very wonderful place here with you :)
  
  
  
  Welcome to our vibrant community! We are a group of approximately 10 individuals dedicated to creating a positive impact on the world through our non-profit retreat and event center. Our primary mission is to nurture and empower people by fostering mindful, embodied, and playful practices that contribute to the development of a life-sustaining culture.
  Our communal journey unfolds within the walls of a former recreational center, now transformed into a thriving hub for personal growth and collective well-being. Nestled in a serene village surrounded by hills and enchanting woods, our location offers a tranquil and inspiring setting for all who join us.
  At our heart, we believe in the power of togetherness and voluntary work. Living and working as one, we embrace the beauty of communal living, where each member's unique strengths and passions merge to form a harmonious tapestry.
  One of the cornerstones of our community is our shared commitment to conscious living and ethical choices. As part of this, we enjoy preparing delicious organic vegan meals together (the food offered is always vegan, however some people decide to eat their own non-vegan food, such as cheese or butter), fostering a sense of unity and respect for all living beings.
  Moreover, we cherish our journey of discovery and continuous improvement. As we explore new horizons, we engage in activities such as qi-gong, yoga, meditation, musical gatherings around the fireplace, art & crafts (we have a room dedicated for the purpose of arts & crafts, such as clay-work and painting), touch-based workshops and various fun games that uplift our spirits and strengthen our connections.
  Communication and open sharing are deeply valued in our community. Through talking practises such as Honest Sharing and Heart Circles we create a safe space for everyone to express their thoughts, emotions, and aspirations.
  Whether you are seeking personal growth, a sense of belonging, or an opportunity to make a positive difference in the world, we invite you to be a part of our community. Join us on this transformative journey as we strive to create a haven in the heart of the Austrian landscape, just 1.5 hours south of Vienna.
  We look forward to welcoming you with open arms and shared dreams!
  
  With warmth and enthusiasm,
  Lisi, Bine, Viki, Julian, Alex, Paul, Markus, Stefan, Clemens, Luisa, Silvia and our animals Simba, Happy and Luna :)

  Hébergement

  The type of accommodation we can offer depends on the timing of your visit and the number of guests present. In many cases, we can provide a separate room equipped with all essentials, including a shower, toilet, bed, and blankets. However, there might be instances where you'll share a room with another volunteer or have the option to sleep in a camper or tent. Just check with us in advance, and we'll make the best arrangement for you.
  
  Please be aware that only one of the three mobile network providers (A1) has direct coverage at our location, and our internet access is limited.
  
  As a space dedicated to holistic health and sustainability, we kindly request that you refrain from bringing alcohol or drugs onto the premises.
  
  In our expansive garden, you'll find a sauna and a pool, and it's worth noting that, on occasion, individuals may be unclothed, particularly after using the sauna. This practice is customary in our culture and has nothing to do with sexuality. Nonetheless, we understand that this might be important information for some visitors, especially if seeing someone naked could be triggering for you.

  Autres infos...

  During your free time, you'll have the opportunity to relish our beautiful surroundings or engage in various recreational activities such as hiking, biking, or visiting the stunning "Bad Tatzmannsdorf" thermal resort located approximately 15km from our community.
  
  To ensure your smooth arrival, we offer a pick-up service from the bus station in Pinkafeld, which is directly accessible from Vienna. In some cases, we may also be able to arrange pick-up from the train station in Pinggau, although it is situated farther away.

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  While we do provide internet access, it's essential to note that there are certain limitations. Occasionally, we may encounter minor challenges during video calls, such as needing to disable the camera, and at times, we might experience temporary connection drops for a few minutes. For general internet usage, such as browsing and light tasks, there are no significant issues.

• 

  Espace pour garer des vans

  For those traveling with camper vans, we've got you covered with a vast parking lot located just 50m from our main building. This convenient space allows you to set up camp comfortably. If you require electricity or water connection for your camper, we have a designated area to accommodate one or possibly two vehicles. Rest assured, most of the time, we can easily arrange these essential facilities for you.

• 

  Possibilité d'accueillir les animaux

  While we appreciate the love for our animal friends, we must inform you that we currently have two kittens, Luna and Happy, and one dog, Simba, who reside with us. Unfortunately, Simba and the cats aren't particularly fond of sharing their space, so we regretfully cannot accommodate additional furry companions.
