This is definitely something one can benefit from. I also feel the need to, in a sense, formalise or ritualise our practice of communication with the intentions of listening to opening hearts. Too often

All beautiful lessons! My most important has been the realisation that 'change is the only constant'. The hardest moments can be the strongest lessons. Like falling in a ditch of nettles to realize life/pain

That's proper cold! My metabolisms not really built for cold.. that why I migrated south! Though I enjoy the seasonal variations in mountain weather, normally the winter days are mild enough at least in

Believe we have a white variety of walnut. At least it doesn't seem to effect the plants below it too much. I would love raspberries here!

Great homestead @langford. So much can be done with some land sun and water! Wish we had pawpaws here, delicious!

Nature can be so abundant! What do you collect the most of? We are lucky to have some old trees giving delicious walnuts in the village.

Yes, people can visit the village! We have people coming from all directions including Workaway volunteers. [email protected] to get in touch.

We are very close to Sieso and have some links with there. Very similar style of village but we are higher and a bit more isolated. We even have the same beautiful recycled chestnut planks.. Don't blame

Last night was pretty chilly, still loads of drafts in these old houses to close up too. Must have been at least -5c. Could have been worse. The sun is intense again today but the wind is still from the

They are all works of art, though I especially like the small one, what's the coloured handle made from? And the axes have a cool pattern too. Hoping @anarched puts some of his (metal smithing) creations

Cardoprimo clearly hasn't got the hang of using the right account at the right time... Lol

Love this plant! We got given a few unknown varieties that we introduced and they have started to naturalize. Great to add to a salad, or just green manure/mulch. Really don't mind them coming up in the

Wow you must have a large garden to be able to grow enough for the whole year in only 88 days! Guess a greenhouse would help a lot?

Haha I totally know what you mean! Chickens at ease are so amazing to watch. Never could you say they are just dumb birds after sitting with them. Though sometimes their petty squabbles can help show how

I find the boundary between work and 'play' has disappeared. I just enjoy getting to co-create the living homestead! So many new people getting their hands dirty, it's awesome to see. Saludos

We didn't know about the hours of daylight being such a factor. Will definitely look into making a light too now, thanks for the tip. We also use golf balls and they do seem to help, at least initially

A wise decision. Getting wet is one thing, getting electrocuted is another thing entirely. Combining the two is especially to be avoided.

Ooh, bookmarked for next time we have abundant internet!

What a wonderful project. So much we can learn together. Will check out your topics and you've been followed;)

Wow, beautifully said! Being ourselves In the process of re-inhabiting this village I'm definitely going to check out your book. Followed and resteemed!
