Avontuurlijk Progressief Dorp Samenwonen W/Cultuurhub en Paradise Valley

Welcome Artists of Change, Sensual Alchemists, Resonance Magicians, Nomadic Dream Weavers, Dancers of Transformation, Visionaries of the New.

Let us cultivate a vibrant, interconnected community space founded on trust, embracing our authentic selves. Over 24-year project history, we've provided a human laboratory within a natural, ecological, and artistic environment, exploring what truly matters for individuals to embrace trust, openness, authenticity, and fulfillment. Our key elements:

AGREEMENT FIELD
Our agreements serve as the foundation for establishing a community space rooted in a unique cultural codex. The core values include:
Self-Responsibility: Taking full responsibility for one's own experience, emotions, needs, challenges, boundaries.
Authentic Self-Expression: In a judgment-free, sex-positive environment.
Conscious Communication: Committing to non-violence, honesty, and deep sharing.
Confidenciality: 'What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas'.

COMMON NUTRITION
Shared meals and collective food supply are central to fostering community, with participation encouraged but not expected. Food is available in three different kitchens, so you can freely prepare meals throughout our common environment. Our goal is to provide at least one prepared meal daily for everyone, with no expectation to join the cooking.

INCLUSITIVITY
We offer a flexible fee structure to ensure that money is not the primary factor in bringing the right people together, without it determining privileges. Choose a payment that suits your financial situation and join a community where we share equally.

FLOW and AUTHENTICITY
Joining our community offers a genuine experience. We are careful not to overplan group dynamics or predict attendance, prioritizing space for change and the unpredictable, ensuring authenticity and honoring the magic of unplanned moments that arise from the shared resonance and creativity of authentic souls.

ACTIVITIES
We host unique activities. Cocreation and spontaneity are key.
- full moon ecstatic dancing.
- new moon hot tubs.
- medicine wheel circles.
- world music parties.
- hot tub, temple- and massage- nights.
- movie nights.
- educational tours presenting our permaculture, art and ecotec environment.
- common nature-building projects or art/craft action.
- excusions to beaches, mountains or cities.
- optional intensive workshops.

SHARING CIRCLES: While most activities and group dynamics are voluntary, our sharing circles, held 1 to 3 times weekly, are mandatory for all community members.

Our community thrives in a diverse and accessible environment, offering distinct spaces for every member to explore and enjoy.

Your room or pod will be situated in our artistic culture hub, designed with integrative architecture to foster a sense of togetherness. This thoughtfully crafted space encourages collaboration, where, as a community, we oscillate between vibrant moments, focused work, and tranquility. It is also home to our coworking spaces, available for your use.

In front of our hub, you'll find our charming village bar, where our exceptionally friendly neighbors gather daily, welcoming you with a smile and open arms. Our fast Wi-Fi extends to their terrace, making it a nice spot for computer work. This is also where our community often ends the day, enjoying local organic wine and delicious tapas. It reflects the Andalusian way of life, which is lively in the early mornings and late afternoons into the night, while during siesta, the entire village is enveloped in peaceful silence. At our hub, we strive to tune in with this rhythm.

Our paradise valley, nestled in a lush nearby landscape, serves as both a laboratory for experimenting with natural ecovillage living and vibrant human dynamics, and a sanctuary for reconnecting with nature and oneself. Online work is not permitted here, fostering a commitment to full presence, embracing inner truths, and offering a retreat from the busyness of projects and social intensity.

The simultaneous availability of these distinct areas between the vibrant little village and our natural haven not only encourages individuals to separate work and retreat time but also facilitates the unfolding of two community dynamics. One is centered on collaboration and outreach, while the other embodies the natural flow of togetherness in the paradisiac surroundings and sensual contact with the elements. As a community, both individually and collectively, we embark on a journey of learning to oscillate between these two spaces, discovering the perfect resonance in our multifaceted interactions.

The distance between the two locations is precisely 1000 meters, making for a pleasant 10 to 15-minute stroll or a quick 5-minute bicycle ride. It's just enough to disconnect from the screen and workload, arriving with open senses and spirit for more subtle vibes.

Not to forget that we are situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty. Many hiking trails are available, leading up into the mountains where, on a clear day, you can see Africa, or into lush hidden valleys. Additionally, several beautiful white mountain villages are just a hike away. A 45-minute car ride will take you to a stunning nudist beach.

Our village is in a remote location, surrounded by pure nature, with limited public transport options. However, for those who cherish a simple, connected village life, it can feel like we are at the center of the world.
