People of Hive, please allow me some of your time and attention 🙏
For those that don't know much about me, I have been living in a forest of South Chile, learning through direct experience how to live in the most sustainable way possible for my own standards.
Without having any of the necessary skills, I plunged myself into the land and had to learn to build, forage, garden, and be resilient to withstand the loneliness that comes from removing oneself from the familiar social dynamics.
My idea was always to start an ecovillage in this place, but the conditions were not apt for receiving voluntaries, so progress has been slow. Yet, I find myself right now in a better situation and have posted the project on Workaway (my profile here), a site for travelers and hosts who exchange lodging for work.
My first volunteers from the site are on their way! They are four french architecture students who are eager to experiment with natural construction (using only material we can forage and recycle from the surroundings) and that is very exciting to me! Who knows what intricate designs we might elaborate and build!
Here's where I will need your help.
My only income during all this time has been Hive, and this has been enough to buy the food I haven't been able to yet produce. But I'm a bit worried that what I have won't be enough to feed all 5 of us during their stay.
I'm needing all the help I can get and would appreciate any way you can support me, whether it be reblogging/crossposting, upvoting, promoting the post, or donating whatever amount you feel you are able to.
The guests are arriving on March 15 and I will be trying to post daily until then asking for support so your reblogging and upvoting of those posts could amass to a huge help towards the mission here.
Once the volunteers have arrived, I will also try to post daily about the work we do so that you can presence what you have contributed to accomplish.
I thank you in advance for your help and time. Please don't overlook the value of a reblog/crosspost in these situations as you never know who could be highly interested in contributing to this and might be reached through this simple and free action 😌
Do that! You have my vote for suport for shure!

Thank you very much, good weekend to you as well!
Wow what a great lifestyle and amazing plans and adventures ahead! I am very impressed with your achievements so far and applaud you for making it work. Volunteers from Workaway sounds already successful in the interest you have had immediately!
I have just followed and shall enjoy following along with this awesome lifestyle you have adopted!

I wish you health, happiness , success and above all much love!
Thank you for your kind words 🏵️
Health, happiness, success, and love for you as well 😊
Done: reposted!
I can't believe you'll be receiving volunteers, and four at the same time too! I mean, I am surprised because you have always struck me as a bit of a hermit. On the other hand, it's a great way to tip the scale in favor of being more social, at least for a while.
I wish you all the best with this crew, whether that may come in the form of some fantastic structure, some amazing insight you have still to learn, or simply great times and good laughs you will share together.
I also read about your concern in your next post, so I looked around, thinking I'd find some indications to the negativity you described. I could not find anything. Regardless, I really hope this won't be the case, and your time with your volunteers is going to lead you to some awesome places (though it will still be on the same property).
I'm also totally looking forward to your posts during that time.
Yeah, I'm not a hermit because I want to be alone but rather because I want to focus on what I want to create and not get my time sucked by the addictions of modern society. But I love company, specially if we're going to work together towards harmony with Nature :)
Thanks for taking interest in my concern, the text was actually directed to a specific person as I felt the energy projected towards me and mostly in the hopes of provoking reflection. But I've also been doing introspection and taking responsibility for my part in the density experienced.
Ultimately, each thing I write comes back like a boomerang to get me to see myself and my shortcomings so I might grow into a better version.
Also thank you for your great vibes and support, I really appreciate it and boosts my positive energy!
