What we do

We wish to live, learn together & evolve into better human beings. We will do this by building connections and a deep sense of belonging within the broadening heart of our community & Mother Nature.
From this dream, we gave birth to the project AWE that holds space to embrace and emerge more moments of awe in life – when we feel amazed and overwhelmed by either physical or psychological things that bring deep learning and transformation.
We are starting to manifest this in a space called Noong Awe Garden in the Northwest of Vietnam, which is also to honor its old name in local Thai language as Noong Ă“ (pond of elephant grass).
Mission & Practice
Our intention is to co-create a community space for deepening our personal connection with ourselves, other humans, nature & the great mystery of this life. Our intention is to cultivate a space where we can learn, experiment and sustain a simple, resilient, responsible and eco lifestyle which aims to be in harmony with local people and the environment.
To cultivate spaciousness for personal growth and collective evolution in order to learn, relax, and to connect physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually with ourselves and each other, we consciously design our lives and activities to serve the well-being of the community and the regeneration of the Earth.

  • Mind-practices: learn and experiment simple, mindfulness living; learn from local knowledge and learn from nature.
  • Body-practices: learn to grow, build, cook, and make craft in diversity with adaptation of local & traditional practices; share holistic practice of meditation, body work and arts.
  • Soul-practices: space for self-improvement & connections with compassionate communication, fair decision making, transparency, as well as arts, rituals and celebrations.

Gratitude – (Inner) Growth – Love – Transparency – Harmony – Learning – Nurturing – Compassion – Diversity – Creativity – Beauty – Minimalism – Discipline – Collaboration

Social Media Intern for GEN International Hours: Up to 20/month, flexible around your schedule and availability Location: Remote, work with Eva Goldfarb Focus: Instagram + LinkedIn (TikTok if you’re into it!) Hi! I’m Eva, and I run social media for GEN International — the global network connecting ecovillages, intentional communities, and regenerative culture-builders across every continent. I’m looking for a co-conspirator to help me tell the stories of the people quietly building the future: off-grid villages in the Philippines, permaculture farms in Senegal, urban cohousing projects in Berlin, elders passing down land wisdom in the Andes. It’s a wildly rich, wildly underrepresented world, and I want more people to fall in love with it the way I have. What you’ll actually do: Dream up and create content for Instagram and LinkedIn (reels, carousels, stories, captions that don’t sound like a corporate newsletter) Dig into our global network and turn your findings into stories people want to share Pitch your own ideas. If there’s a series, a theme, a format, or a corner of the network that lights you up, that’s what I want you to focus on. What we’re looking for: A natural storyteller, someone who can spot the human thread in a project update or a photo from a faraway village Genuinely curious about ecovillages, sustainability, intentional community, regenerative living Self-motivated and communicative; this is a flexible, trust-based role Why this role: This isn’t a “post 3x a week and don’t ask questions” internship. You’ll have real creative freedom to work on what excites you, learn how a global grassroots network tells its story, and build a portfolio full of meaningful, purpose-driven content. Plus you’ll be talking to people living some of the most interesting, intentional lives on the planet. If storytelling for a better world sounds like your kind of fun, let’s talk.

VII Voluntariado Intercultural

El voluntariado es una propuesta del acompañar. Surge como posibilidad activa y pedagĂłgica, para fortalecer el desarrollo de los procesos propios que buscan nuestras comunidades. Convocando gente de todos los territorios, nos unimos para co-crear un espacio de abundancia desde el Intercambio Cultural. Participa en el VII Voluntariado de Intercambio PedagĂłgico del 2 al 11 de julio, 2014. En esta ocasiĂłn nos enfocaremos en la continuaciĂłn de la construcciĂłn de la escuela propia de Gunkerun, dentro del resguardo indĂ­gena de Businchama, territorio que fue recuperado hace 7 años. Dentro del proceso de recuperaciĂłn se busca fortalecer el conocimiento propio y dentro de ello, la arquitectura tradicional. Adicionalmente, la comunidad Iku ha manifestado interĂ©s en implementar tĂ©cnicas de construcciĂłn que aumenten la vida Ăştil de sus edificaciones, por lo cual desde el Colectivo Talanquera ofrecemos a la comunidad asistencia en torno a diferentes eco-tĂ©cnicas que lo permitan, tales como; recolecciĂłn de aguas lluvias, baños secos, etc… A lo largo de los dĂ­as, se abrirán espacios de compartir en torno al fuego historias tradicionales, danzas, tejido, mĂşsica, canto… Momentos en los cuales podremos acercarnos Ă­ntimamente al saber que ha sido resguardado desde hace más de 7000 años en el territorio de Nauma Keku o bien, la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. Igualmente tendremos cĂ­rculos de palabra algunas de las noches para propiciar un compartir en torno a la experiencia que estaremos viviendo, fortaleciendo asĂ­ nuestro propĂłsito y relaciĂłn con nosotros, el territorio y quienes nos acompañan.
