See all the photos of our constructions.PHOTOS
All our cabins are constructed of wood and royal palms for the roofs while the use of cement is limited to the floor and some wall. The royal palm roofs are cool and very resistant to rain ( 1 ). Every 4 / 5 years should be changed by making new and the old palms are used as mulch (organic cover) around the plants ( 2 ). In parts of masonry cement is used with the stones found on the farm (zero miles), with glass bottles and even plastic bottles to recycle them ( 3 4 5 6 ).
There are 2 large communal spaces, a kitchen (with roof 7 ) and the zone of mango (outdoors 8 ) so we can socialize and meet new people.
All bathrooms are compost toilet ( 9 10 11 ) and we use the excrement to make the fertilizer that we give to plants, by a process that lasts 6 months.We have been criticized especially by very comfortable guests because the bathrooms are far away (20 meters at most) from the houses but we have thought so because having compost toilet near the house is not very hygienic.I'd like to add that to be ecologist and to have all the comforts is a nonsense, so we prefer to work with ordinary people that adapts to live in contact with nature, giving up some comforts typical of developed countries like the bathroom in the room.
