Ecovillage Experience

Thanks to Albert Bates for creating the Global Ecovillage Network (www.gen.ecovillage.org). Without that site I would have never been able to find EcoTruly Park in Peru (www.ecotrulypark.org) or my apprenticeship at the Ecovillage Training Center on The Farm in Summertown, TN.
Eco Truly Park was a Hare Krishna community that welcomed visitors and worktrade on the Peruvian coast. In 2008 this place served as my intoduction to ecovillages for a week.  I left the country in a wheelchair after an intense soccer match.  I was very sad to leave, but the kindness and hospitality shown to me shall never be forgotten.
