The Experience

We're an eco-village with the purpose of reconnection with Nature and a will to work for the awakening of consciousness and work on self, all this supported by an atmosphere of joy, trust and liberation from false ego. We have 3 yurts, 1 straw house, 1 caravan, 1 tipi, 4 compost toilets, a kitchen, a meditation circus and a bathroom with sauna. We live in an olive garden in a National Park in front of the Adriatic cost (800m walk)

I loved my experience at the eco village. Padma cooks amazing vegan food and Diego has a vast knowledge in permaculture and gardening. the eco village feels like home and it is also a perfect place to get in contact with nature. It is nice to practice Italian if you already know some. The work is not very hard and during my time there it was very diverse. The hosts took time to show me some of the surrounding interesting spots. It was very unique and spiritual experience.

I had an amazing experience at the eco village. This has been better than anything I could have ever imagined. Since the first day I have felt very connected with myself, nature, and the people around me. The work feels very fulfilling and meaningful, and the learnings and conversations I have had have helped me to improve as a person immensely. I feel like I have a new family here

I think this site is better suited for someone looking for a solo, spiritual experience as oppose to a group, volunteering, cultural experience. Ask lots of questions before visiting, there was a lot we were not made aware of.
