beneficio

first things first: GIRLS and TOM:  WE ARE MISSING YOU! COME BACK!

no photos still, but just a short update from a 3 euro per hour internet cafe in orgiva, near granada

we , that is anna, sam, peter and me (the people who are in the tour since the beginning) set up an “elite” as aris (r.i.p.) told us to do all the time ;-)

and did a huge reflection on what we did and what we want to do in the next months, setting up basic visions for the next months and concrete ideas and agreements on how to organise within our group

for the moment we decided we want to set our homebase in beneficio

(a half bought and half squatted “open-space”-Rainbowfamily-ecovillage in a magic nice valley)

for one month until the dragon festival end of march, where we will make an infopoint/skillsharing-area and hopefully some money with chill+skill chai&chapati :-)

I will foculise creating a skillsharing area here in beneficio (our first free school!!)

and anna will prepare some excursions to interesting projects in the area granada - malaga in the next month, where we take only REALLY interested people and not the people who just want to hang out there

also we will use the time for organising a touph route for after leaving here as we decided we want to do portugal - northern spain and southern france (the part we left out in autumn) in 2 months to be back in germany in the beginning of june

we decided that we want to focus more on a special topic on this tour, because when we try to learn everything at the same time it is just too much - we decided it will be natural healing. not everybody has to deal with that topic when he/she wants to come with us but it is now our probably biggest learning group for the tour

of course we will still want to do more than just travelling/learning ourselves - we want to create a network!

so we will go on collecting informations about infrastructure in the places we visit - e.g. what you could learn there if you stay longer, most basic thing to work on will be the questionnaire that we worked out for places and sam wants to foculise on sorting all the data and questionnaire work better

what else to say…

well … i didnt have a proper shower since we left alcoi, the dumpstering situation is fantastic (in granda you can get hundreds of kilos of vegetables), i am happy to have nice drinking water and the “new people” are nice .

paz finally found his MAGIC homeplace in the MAGIC mountains with the MAGIC river full of MAGIC people (and MAGIC plants that he missed for a while!!!), THANK YOU UNIVERSE ;-))
