  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  With our strong interest in community building and strengthening social coherence we might add that besides individuals looking to blend in, families and groups able to give their own incentives are also very welcome! The culture is very unique, a de-civilization project, so it offers the chance to see a different side of life in Belgium and we are always happy to learn about other cultures.
  
  We have wood and metal workshops here for anyone looking to learn technical skills and we also have large gardens with aquaponics and biogas projects in the making. Anyone wanting to try out alternative technologies or meet like-minded people is welcome!

  Algo mais...

  The community is located at Herent, a village nearby (3km) the University City of Leuven (Louvain) and close to Brussels.
  
  As to the community's organization, there are no strict rules, so everyone is responsible for his/her own actions, with due respect for the others and for the environment. Diversity is considered enriching in itself and, historically, a lot of different people with various backgrounds passed by and helped to make this place what it is today, a very special and unique place.
  
  We have been hosting International working camps for the last 15 years (through cooperation with VIA NGO and EVS). We have also been hosting long-term EVS volunteers for 7 years.
  
  This place is also member of the Alternative travelers network (NAR)
  
  Before you decide to come you should be aware of:
  - The structure is mainly anachaic, and, depending on the people that are present, sometimes even the basic things like cleaning and arranging are missing! So don´t be surprised by finding some chaos! In that case, if you want some order you must make it your self, it will be appreciated!
  - Like everybody tends to be busy with their own activities we cannot guarantee a personal reception at all times
  - You shall bring a flash light because at night the streets are not illuminated
  - It is appreciated that you communicate what you would like to do in this community, in which way you would like to help and what are your abilities.
  
  Best is to call -ask us for the number
  
  We are looking forward to your visit!!
