The Experience

When you come to our village, the first thing you do is to relax and take time to understand the spirit of the people... At first we will ask for help with small things and slowly we will learn each other and we will be able to move forward. Afterwards, you will notice how things go - everyone finds a project for themselves (and if not we help them) then we go to a movement class - and a short discussion circle that brings up ideas and methods o

My time at Beij thethethe the the eco village village villagevillagevillage village villagereally changed me- being immersed in nature surrounded by jungle, Sarai's Yoga classes, fire ceremonies and all the beautiful people. The work isn't much, you can choose between kitchen tasks, organizing/ cleaning, working in the garden or you can come up with your own creative project… I can really recommend it to everyone seeking for a unique experience connecting with yourself, nature and meeting lovely people- but be aware that the area is still in the beginning of the process, getting out of the place takes some time and it's a very simple life - but i loved it!

I would totally recommend this experience! Working in the garden is super interesting and in general the work is not hard at all. The hosts are amazing and made me feel at home from day 1. There's plenty of time to explore things around thethe ecothethethe the the eco village village villagevillagevillage village village, but keep in mind that the project is a 30 min walk down and a 45 minute walk up a steep hill. If you're lucky, sometimes you can hitchhike :) There's also lots of ceremonies, yoga, capoeira,… there's only 1 surfboard but I think they're working on it. Maybe bring some extra snacks for yourself, as the supermarket is also not very close. :)

What a unique and loving experience! From the moment I arrived, I felt embraced as part of a family and loveddd the positive energy each person brought. Please keep in mind that this program is still in its early stages, with ongoing changes to the property through construction. It's a bit far of a walk into town/beach but everything is provided for you at the property. Also you will be in the jungle so bugs are just apart of the adventure:). This experience holds a special place in my heart, and I'm excited to see how it blossoms over time. <3

At the top of the mountain in untouched nature you will find the project which will end up in an ecovillage = the ecothe ecothethethe the the eco village village villagevillagevillage village village. It is clear to feel how invested everyone around the project is and how important the volunteers are to them. There is plenty of opportunies to explore your more spiritual side. The place have an amazing energy. With a 30-minute walk to the beach and a 45-minute walk to the nearest town, together with the facilities, you will live hand in hand with the nature. An experiential stay that I think everyone would learn something from. From here a big thank you!
