In 2009 began the process of creating an eco-friendly and sustainable lifestyle here in this paradise in a beautiful tucked away valley on the Oliphants River, as it finally emerges from the northern extent of the Cederberg range.
In the late sixties a real and meaningful youth revolution happened. This “Hippie” philosophy grabbed the attention of millions of kids around the world with its beguiling suggestion that folks “Drop Out”.
Today we live in an urban based society that is fast consuming the world’s resources, without much care for future generations. City Life is sought after by many as they seek to “drop in”. Dreaming of prosperity and an easy life, but mostly ending with stress and unhappiness.
So in part this dream is to create a different sort of lifestyle, with the emphasis on sustainability - and eco-friendly principles, healthy eating, organic produce, fresh clean air, and an outdoors life. Time seems to stand still. The plentiful sunshine here makes life lazy, because the sun will still shine tomorrow. Yet we get a lot done, work hard - relax hard. Don’t fight nature, work with it. Don’t resist the sun, adapt - and it becomes your friend.
If you would like to find out more, and perhaps become part of this friendly, lazy, stress free lifestyle, contact me.
