Shangrila EcoVillage Project

I'm Mauna, Italian, I'm 48 years old and I'm the founder of Shangrila AnthropHolistic EcoVillage,
First of all I want to thank you for coming into contact with us because I imagine our reality has inspired you on some level. At the same time I would like to start by telling you that Shangrila` is not a company nor an entity with commercial purposes, but a humanitarian and ecological project whose main purpose is to create together a new paradigm of community life in which human beings can find a space to express one's affective, creative and existential potential and ultimately, find a sense of greater existential satisfaction and happiness.

After 10 years spent as a volunteer in various similar realities (educational farms, ecovillages, intentional communities or small ecological self-sufficiency projects) starting in Spain, passing through Portugal and Thailand and ending in Southern Italy (Puglia-Gargano), I was able to collect the best that those places had to offer and also learning to avoid some mistakes that are sometimes made in these projects. All this experience + 10 years of facilitation in various holistic disciplines is offered in a practical and experiential form to the volunteer who comes to S. at no additional cost. For this reason the name Anthropolistic EcoVillage.

From the moment I arrived, Mauna welcomed me into the community. I was quite shy, but his openness & kind encouragement helped me come out of my shell & reconnect w personal interests I’d forgotten. I really felt part of a tribe here, included & valued. I quickly learned many skills, like foraging, cooking, living off-grid (i.e. rainwater for daily use, making conserves from foraged olives etc). Mauna is a generous host, passionate about sharing his knowledge on ecology, holistic practices & more. He also offered Reiki, which I found deeply healing. Feel v grateful for the special experience

Merci Mauna pour ton accueil. On se sent comme à la maison.
A 57 ans, je viens de vivre ma première expérience de woofing, et j'avoue que ce que je viens de vivre me donne envie de recommencer… Le lieu, le site sont incroyables : pleine nature entourée d'oliviers, vue sur la mer avec plongeon en moins d'un quart d'heure, Raguse, Caltagirone...à proximité.
C'est une petite structure, ce qui me convenait parfaitement.
Les travaux sont variés, et chacun peut trouver sa place, apprendre de nouveaux talents tout en apportant sa contribution (olives, compost, réparation, entretien...

I spent two weeks at the Shangrilà eco-village and it was a very interesting and instructive experience. Mauna is a very knowledgeable person and very good at making you feel at home. I spent some pleasant days immersed in nature and silence.
Even though it was my first experience in this type of village, Mauna always tried to involve me in daily and spiritual activities. He was very patient in explaining my tasks and very open to discussion. This certainly helped make this experience authentic and truly impactful. I thank Mauna for this opportunity and hope to return soon!

Un lugar hermoso en medio de la naturaleza, para el que le gusta la montaña y también el mar. Una casa muy cómoda y muy cálida, un verdadero hogar! Aquí se aprende de todo un poco y se comparten momentos y experiencias únicas! Ideal para aquel que quiera tener la oportunidad de vivir de una manera diferente, sobre todo con ganas de estar tranquilo y en paz.
