La experiencia

We are welcoming volunteers to join us in the mountains of Corsica to help continue the self-build of our ecological home. Tasks may include timber frame elements, straw bale infill and natural building (GREB), but also daily life support around the house. The rhythm is flexible, shared meals, learning by doing, and a simple, grounded lifestyle focused on sustainability, nature and human connection.

Programa detallado

We are a family living in the Corsican mountains, building our ecological home step by step. We welcome Worldpackers who want to take part in a real-life eco project, learn by doing, and share daily life with us.

Most of the help is currently focused on the house construction: timber frame elements, roof preparation, straw bale infill and GREB natural building. Beginners are welcome — everything is explained and done together. Help can also include daily life support around the house and occasional help with our kids.

In return, we offer a simple, grounded lifestyle, shared meals, knowledge sharing, nature, flexibility and a warm family atmosphere.
