The work is varying, for example: making adobe bricks, building new parts of the project, taking care of the garden & animals, collecting water, cooking and cleaning. The tasks are depending on the season and on the availability of water.

Programa detallado

The work can vary day by day; from taking care of the garden to planting new seeds, from recovering old parts inside the house to working on new construction parts, We also make a lot of adobe bricks and are daily busy with taking care of the animals. Everyone helps in cooking and cleaning as well. Some periods we harvest dates or wheat, and we regularly harvest alfalfa, wheat or grass for the animals.

We build a lot with natural and recycled materials, and sometimes local workers come to help as well.

In our gardens we grow wheat, alfalfa, date palms, a young fig and pomegranate at this moment, the harvest is dependent each year. Our wish is to grow all kinds of organic vegetables and fruits in the gardens and to make the oasis green again. With the drought here in the south, water is a big difficulty, but we are trying our best to find solutions and all your ideas about growing food are of course very welcome :)

Actividades & Turnos

Working times are flexible and everyone does the work that he/she wants or can do. There is a lot of time to relax, read a book or play a game and to enjoy our beautiful views. We start our day slowly and start work after breakfast. During the hotter periods in the year we work less due to the heat, in winter it's possible to do more work.

Everyone can choose the work that he/she like to do. Don't worry about the need of any special skills. We will be happy to show you what to do and we will be thankful for any help you can do.

We will have three shared meals a day, cooked by ourselves and you can get a chance to learn how to prepare typical Moroccan food. In between there will be tea breaks where you can enjoy the delicious traditional Moroccan tea.

Reglas

The place here can give you a good experience to get many ideas about the basic way of a nomadic life. For a moment you can discover and understand how technology can change your life and at the same time it is a good opportunity to enjoy some quietness and escape from the rush of modern life for a period. You will enjoy beautiful sunsets every evening and at night you will see the millions of stars in the sky.

We would love to meet people from different backgrounds and all kinds of cultures. By this way, we hope to exchange the cultures and different knowledges and ideas from all over the world. Since we have learned a lot from our parents and grandparents, it will be our pleasure to share with you in return this knowledge of our basic Bedouin life.

You will find more practical information on our main page.
