I'm Andreas from Germany, since several years I live off grid with my Romanian wife Ioana in the Carpathian Mountains, in Transilvania, Romania. Our life is increasingly centered around the permaculture principles since I made my PDC, my special interest being community and fair share right now. The project is pretty settled in, the big structeres set... so I would love to share our little paradise.
We already do that by offering volunteering since last year, also we host paying guests to earn some dough (even offgrid life is not for free, actually its pretty much a daily hustle here). What we do have although, is loads of land, situated in a picturesque mountain valley next to a natural reservation. What would a sensible model of sharing and opening up some of it to other people be?
I thought of offering a small parcel of land for city people, so they can come over on weekends, spend some time in our beautiful nature and also do some projects in a permaculture context. We would just provide the land, give some guideline, and then let the people enjoy the opportunity, bring their own tools and ideas and be creative.
BUT I do realise this could come with several dangers, like liability in case some accident happens, loads of started and then abandoned projects, conflicts among people using the land. Are there any similiar projects already running we could get some ideas from? What woul your advice be?
Some pictures attached so you can get an idea of our place.
