About
A tiny eco-village on the land: a garden grows food and plants, turned into soaps, snacks, and crafts. Small houses, a shared kitchen, and an outdoor space for meditation, martial arts, and music. We take care of the land so it can keep giving back.
Impact
Mass tourism drains land, pushing out locals. This regenerates instead: organic growing and ethical local production keep value here. A small retreat (15 guests) offers depth in meditation, martial arts, music — hospitality that heals, not extracts.
Progress
Land identified. Architect brief done: main house, cabanas, dorms, kitchen, open-air practice platform. Mosquito protection is a firm requirement. Bathroom cost comparisons complete. Retreat coordination experience now shapes the operating plan.
Team
I coordinate retreats professionally — logistics, communications, donor relations for an international teacher's team. I live nomadically across Latin America and Europe, seeing tourism's impact firsthand. My creative practice mirrors these values.

The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
