Program Details

In the desert, our days unfold with simplicity and purpose. Mornings start slowly, tending to the land and animals. Volunteers engage in varied tasks, guided by the ever changing desert rhythm. After a shared breakfast, the day offers a choice of activities, echoing the philosophy of wabi-sabi finding beauty in imperfection.

Midday invites rest and reflection, embracing the slow life. A communal lunch marks a celebration of shared endeavors. As the sun sets, the day concludes with a choice: resume work or take a leisurely stroll with a faithful canine companion. In this desert haven, each moment embodies the essence of wabi-sabi and the art of living deliberately.

Activities & Shift

Cooking, a cherished endeavor alongside our daily tasks in the house and garden, is a shared joy. Your assistance in the kitchen is a welcomed addition, and the camaraderie extends to the collective effort in keeping our spaces pristine. Together, we weave the threads of daily life, blending the artistry of chores with the warmth of communal meals and shared responsibilities.

Rules

Your well being matters. If allergies or a preference for vegan or vegetarian fare shape your culinary journey, kindly share your needs. Our kitchen is a flexible canvas, ready to craft meals that cater to diverse tastes and dietary requirements. Your comfort and satisfaction are paramount, and we are committed to creating a dining experience that aligns seamlessly with your preferences.
