    Description

    A 15-minute bus ride from the Aix bus station (€1.30), discover a different minimalist lifestyle:

    I'm Jean Denis, now idealist single born in 1972, dreaming of living and making paradise from a jungle of trees, shrubs and edible or local herbs. They inspire and protect many humans plants and animals...
    Now the place have nothing perfect (but could become time after time with your help?). Depending of your wish we could.

    For cohesion and hygiene we will not cook meat or fish. I am vegetarian or vegan depending on the resources, and rather crudivore.

    keep in mind i never hosted, and there's most of time nobody here. i never cook, and if you feel like, you could. care yourself, and imagine and do for maybe others? Please, evaluate your hopes and ask how it is here, before you come. Let's say me your wishes.

    Organize nicely cabins

    Fill many pots with handmade ground mix, to plant very little trees.

    Find and resolve mosquitoes reproduction
    (I found and maybe forgott, tanks to cover, i also have a natural bacteria selective against mosquitoes water babies).

    Remove rubies? in selected places.

    Would you like to organize nordic spa?


    My dreams for the future:
    Edible forests.
    My focus:
    Find best fruit species and varieties for our climates.

    I wrote articles of fruitforestier.info


    2 options if you come:
    If you are the only workawayer, you could use a cabin and a simple little bath.

    In case of group of workawayers: Restful sleep in contact with the earth on the straw in our collective dry greenhouse (duvets provided). And Nordic spa only in this case of group.

    If you are the unique participant you could have a warm cabin with more classical bed (but spa is filled only for Special happening).

    ONLY ON CONCERTATION:

    Raw food and gas stove available according to wishes of each to be specified before coming.

    For a transition without frustration, please let me know your specific and quantitative needs.
    I can make available in generous quantity.
    Among the participants, perhaps a vegan c(r)uisinier would encourage a vegan discovery for the group?


    🍌😁🤣🤩🧐🤨😆😏

    In case of several participants: Everyone can experience a different role every day:

    1 team to work foolishly,

    others to think about and find out what should be done,

    and also others to ensure (organize) essential tasks such as the kitchen or cruisine and wood supply of the Nordic spa.

    It is a very wild area, a small piece of forest and a wasteland that would like to become a little paradise ...but only one problem we can continue to solve together must find and solve the nests of the mosquitoes. This requires removing the brambles that cover the septic tanks to access them and put a mosquito net under the covers and ventilation.

    With colder nights now there IS l'ESS mosquitoes and you could use our natural lavender insect repellent. You could also use our soap. If you bring any body product, care it'd ecocert organic label and not just "ecolabel"


    4h per day of participation is a good average, and the time is "unlimited" in hot bath or other. Day off working 8h the day before as suggested by the site.



    If you don’t have a swimsuit it’s okay come anyway as you are


    See you soon

    Minimalist raw vegan lifestyle
    Let's together make jungle friendly and edible

    You can cook for yourself but can also experiment eat mainly fruits.

    If you are alone you can take a single hot bath.

    If we are maybe 6 people we could fill the Nordic spa

    Nordic spa: with same interesting drinking water source and a UVC filter, the original water is only heated and often replaced to irrigate the jungle. Just clean well in front of spa before to join in, as they do in iceland.
