Description
At our Homestead, we are seeking contribution in media, permaculture or natural building. Your time with us should result in a meaningful contribution. We have a structured routine, with 4 hours a day, starting by 9AM.
From Bengoh Dam Sarawak, it’s a 30+ minute boat taxi ride. The boat taxi operates during daylight hours, please contact us to book, it's RM80 each way.
You can arrange your own transportation to Bengoh Dam, with local taxi services or apps. Note pick up needs to be booked in advance, which is possible on apps.
**We are off grid in the jungle and there are no shops. Make sure to bring everything you will need during your stay.**
We host people for a week or less, to experience the place and get a sense of what it's like to build off grid. Documenting and learning from the process. Applications for more than a week, are only accepted on a rolling basis.
