We are a young family who has found a site to create our vision in a beautiful village in the area of Troyan!
Troyan is a historical town nestled in the mountains in the middle of the country. It is well organised, clean and the town hall puts on a lot of events that are great for families with children. Our chosen village is near a large clean dam and it is a progressive village but full of traditions and with kind and helpful locals.
Our aim is to live off-grid, waste free and as freely as possible. We are passionate about permaculture and would like to live in this way, in a place where our soil and air are not being contaminated. As we have a little one, we have been really considering how we would like to bring her up and what kind of values we would like to install. We feel that children should learn in creative, explorative, non-standardized ways, to have time to play and learn skills that are actually necessary and useful for them to lead fulfilling lives. We don’t have very extreme views, but realise that the world needs a different direction to the one it’s been going in and have come to believe that the way forward is small sustainable communities, producing our own food and energy, and being in control of what our children learn.
At this moment, we are putting the call out for similar, like-minded families with children whom we can start our community with. It is important for us that there are children involved as one of our main objectives is alternative schooling as well as following permaculture principles.

Hello Mariya!
Could you please send me an email at: [email protected]
I would love to get in touch. My girlfriend and I are currently looking for a land around Sofia and hoping to build a new life for ourselves just like the one you described. We would love to do it as a small community rather than solo 🙂
Beth says
Hi Mariya and Liam!
Lovely to read your story and vision! Myself, partner and two month old are very interested to get to know your family more. We are looking for an opportunity like this for a while now.
My email is… [email protected].
I’m sorry I can’t find your email. Anyway, please get in touch as we’re excited to talk and explore a bit more!
🙏

Catherine says
Great plan but also wondering if this is just for families or for everyone? Is there land that can be cultivated and do you have a vision of being fully sustainable or almost, when it comes to food? I am looking for a place where permaculture is practiced, with off grid electricity and utmost freedom. Thanks.
Mariya says
Hi Catherine, these are really great questions! We would like to connect with families, ones with children or planning to have children soonish. This is simply because we are a family with a child and a brighter future for our little girl is our main focus and something we are considering at every step. But of course, we don’t discriminate and welcome anyone who shares our dream. You are welcome to get in touch with us on [email protected] if you would like to connect and know more 🙂 Some of the aspects that are high on our priority list are becoming self-sufficient in regards to food and energy, taking back control of our own lives, time, and well-being (and our children’s), and being as kind to nature as possible.
