RE: What Are EMFs, How Do They Work, & Why Do They Matter?
I went to visit that bit of land I mentioned, I thought you'd be interested to see a couple of photos. Really special place at the head of a valley, just above a Hare Krishna community and only 30 minutes from Paraty (beautiful little historical town on the Green coast between Rio and Sao Paulo, an important tourist destination). Definitely food for thought!
One side of the land has a sizable river running along it, interspersed with swimming holes and water chutes.
At one stage the forest opens up to a hillside pasture going up the hill, with great views all the way down the valley to the Atlantic down below.
So quiet! Beautiful. 31 hectares of bliss. The owner has all sorts of cool ideas for a research and volunteer centre, yoga room, a kundalini landscaped garden, agroforestry, vegplots and tree houses.
Maybe if Steem decides to take off I can go for it :)
Wow...such a serene and peaceful place to live near nature...just like Eden... Nice photos...is the owner selling?
It really is serene and peaceful, just the birds and the sound of the waterfall. There's a fantastic Hare Krishna community next door with a beautiful temple where they dance and sing twice a day. The owner changed his mind about living in glorious isolation and has decided that he wants some like-minded neighbours, and so is thinking of selling off some lots of a couple of hectares for people to construct eco-houses on. He has an idea of it being a loose sort of eco-community where if people have cool ideas for projects then they can also, following dialogue, make use of the larger area that he will remain owner of. He's quietly connecting with selected people to see if they are interested. A real nice guy, has had an interesting and varied career and is really keen to settle in to the landscape up there and build something that adheres to his values. Has been involved with the hare krishnas, rainbow meetings, high cuisine, acting, all sorts. I like that he would be selling lots so there would ultimately be a high degree of autonomy and also privacy for whoever buys.
I'm not currently in a position to say yes, but the next 12 months is going to see a lot of changes for me so who knows.
I think I'd like to research a bit also other similar projects, find out what are the pitfalls and what is it that makes these kind of projects work. I suspect it's being very clear as regards expectations and commitments on all sides.
