    Descrição

    I’m a Canadian artist in Baja Sur doing land art. Art from found organic materials and other found materials. Also doing some drawing and shiboro dye techniques. I’m looking for volunteers, you don’t have to be artists but must like constructing things, to help with building small structures with the local bamboo like plant called chorizo. Making large mandalas in the sand is also my interest. Perhaps you’ll add some of your creative ideas.

    You will help out 4-5 hours a day for odour to five days a week. Food is provided: rice, quinoa, beans, vegetables and some fish, tortillas etc. Life is pretty relaxed and fun here. Weekly trips into town for shopping and music happen though there is live music at the bars around Cerritos too.

    I’m retired and am enjoying the community life of the camp I’m living, not a 15 minute walk to the beach. This group of young people invited me to live here to do my art and be part of their life.

    I’m here until the end of March. I’ll be driving back to British Colombia then and am open to sharing the trip especially with someone who would appreciate seeing Baja. I did this last spring with a volunteer at the camp and we had an awesome trip.

  • Acomodação

    Acomodação

    Large tent with good quality sleeping pad. I prefer you have your own sleeping bag but not absolutely necessary. If you have a tent that’s good too. There is an outdoor kitchen under a palapa, bathrooms and a cold water shower. We cook our own food but I have a small fridge in my van run by a solar panel as well as my own small size camp kitchen set up.

    The surfing and swimming beach is just a 15 minute walk. Beautiful sand of a beach many kilometres long. Hikes in the area. Lots of eateries at Cerritos as well as in Pescadero. Live music nearby at the bar as well as jam sessions that break out spontaneously here in the kitchen.

    Lots of time for the beach, bar down the road, hiking, I teach tai chi twice a week and for general relaxing and exploring the area. Music sessions breakout spontaneously here with anyone who wants to contribute. So bring an instrument if you want to play.
