Hello there! We are Natalia & Jason 👋
We are a married couple that invested in building an ecological house made out of bamboo in Mexico.
The dream was always exciting and seemed approachable at the beginning, building our earth and bamboo-based home, grow our food, recycle our gray water and share this regenerative space with the community.
We were basically scammed by most of the "professionals" that we hired trusting their "professional" knowledge more than our own to have built it on our own. It has been really heart breaking and economy breaking since we trusted all of our money into these "professionals" for a project that is not finished and getting damaged every day, even though we're putting all of our energy and resources into it but it is more than we can handle since it's the second time we are having to do it all...
It all started to crumble when we were left alone on the building
process. Lots of terrible surprises that we couldn’t handle appeared,
and week by week, our savings were draining, we didn’t quite
understand the origin…
Then an unexpected and really strong
rainy season came over, and started to damage the progress we achieved.
Instead of going further we were going backwards for a while, and our dreams started to crumble...
Please donate if you have the ability to help us; this has been our truly last resource, we even had to rent a cheaper house to save as much as possible for our natural build, but it is being so rough! Jason is a musician from the US, and I am a Mexican permaculturist, just trying to live the dream we decided to start together 2 years ago 🫶
