Questa è un associazione culturale che nasce per incrementare la salute,il benessere, l'armonia, la gioia, la pace, l'amore universale; sostiene progetti di aiuto ai bimbi abbandonati di India, partecipa alla tutela della Madre Terra e delle sue creature; promuove incontri su culture e filosofie orientali, alimentazione e medicina naturale ed escursioni ecologiche. Noi siamo in tre e stiamo progettando un piccolo orto e giardino sinergico in connessione con l’energia del cosmo che vorremmo iniziare da novembre,abbiamo un giardino orto di 500 m2 e chiediamo un aiuto per costruire un ambiente esterno alla casa che sia in sinergia con le forze cosmiche e serve per produrre ortaggi per l’autosostentamento delle persone che vivono nell’associazione. Siamo vegani e la maggior parte del tempo causa impegni lavorativi e corsi in atto forniamo il cibo base ma non abbiamo tempo per cucinarlo , anche perchè spesso facciamo digiuno, ma forniamo l'uso di una cucina moderna affinchè i woofer possano cucinare da soli. Nelle vicinanze c'è un buon supermercato della coop se vogliono comprare formaggi o latte vaccino o altro ma non carne o pesce, possono andare li. In casa e in giardino non si usa il cellulare ma diamo la disponibilità di una linea ethernet a chi volesse usare il proprio computer. Possiamo ospitare 2 woofer per volta e per massimo un mese dandogli una piccola cameretta con bagno in comune, chi volesse può seguire liberamente i nostri corsi di yoga, tai chi, riassetto posturale, qi gong, digiuno, etc Si richiede attenzione per il mantenimento della pulizia dei locali che verranno messi a disposizione. I wwoofer si occuperanno principalmente del giardino sinergico, di un piccolo orto e del mantenimento della struttura , chiediamo massimo 3 ore e 30' per giorno, domenica libero. Nei giorni liberi, si puo fare 20 minuti a piedi per arrivare al mare camminando via bosco. Siamo vicini a città d’arte come Pisa e Lucca, il lago e le alpi apuane. I trasporti pubblici della nostra zona sono servito abbastanza bene. ****************************** This is a cultural association that was born to enhance health, well-being, harmony, joy, peace, universal love; it supports aid projects to abandoned children in India, takes part in the protection of Mother Earth and its creatures; promotes meetings on Oriental cultures and philosophies, nutrition and natural medicine and ecological excursions. We are three people and we are designing a small vegetable garden and synergic garden in connection with the energy of the cosmos we would like to start from November, we have a 500 m2 garden garden and we ask for help to build an outside home that is in synergy with cosmic forces and serves to produce vegetables for the self-sustaining of the people living in the association. We are vegans and most of the time as we work for our courses of fasting we buy the food for them but we don't cook it if they want buy cheese or cow milk they can, but not meat or fish, there is a lovely market 10' walking near here, you can prepare the meals in the new kitchen but always following at least vegetarian principles. In the home and in the garden you cannot use your cell phone but we give you the availability of an ethernet line for those who want to use their computer. We can accommodate two wwoofers at a time and for a maximum of one month in a small room with shared bathroom, if you would like you are welcome to participate on our yoga classes, tai chi, postural reorganization , qi gong and fasting courses. We ask you to keep the space clean and tidy. The woofers will mainly take care of the synergistic garden, a small vegetable garden and the mantanance of the centre, we ask max 3h30' for day sunday free. Our place is 25 minutes distance walking to the sea through the wood and close to the cities of Pisa and Lucca, the lake and the Apuan Alps. The public transport is quite good.

"I spent two weeks at Rodolfo's Shambala in December. I was feeling a little sick from travelling, but I could recover there perfectly (Rodolfo looked after me every day) and worked in the garden cutting trees for a few hours a day. If you want to learn a balanced life, just try out Rodolfo's food and habits. In the afternoon I went to the beach or took the bus to Viareggio. Thanks for your hospitality and your kindness! Namasté and all the best, Martin"

I shared a room with another really nice girl. We worked around 3 or 3 and a half hours per day (from 10 am). We did gardening, tree cutting, organising stuff. It was also possible to take part to the yoga classes. We ate together with Rodolfo at lunch and in the evening nice and healthy vegan food. We talked a lot about spirituality which was very interesting. The beach is quite nearby and the train station is also reachable within 20 min walking.

La mia esperienza al centro è stata bellissima e molto arricchente. È stato un onore poter contribuire, anche solo un po’, a questo luogo speciale e condividere le sue attività. Rodolfo è una persona meravigliosa, così come tutte le persone che ho incontrato al centro: sempre gentili, aperte e pronte a insegnare, e davvero c’è tantissimo da imparare lì.

I honestly think that my stay at Cielo di Shambala was my best Wwoofing experience so far, I higly recommand this place !!! I had a wonderful time, the work was really easy: I mainly cleaned the house, cutted the grass of a field and hanged some posters around the city. I was working only during mornings, from 9:30 AM to 1 PM, wish allowed me to visit, travel and relax every afternoons. I felt very welcome, Rodolfo, Kayoko and Piuma were incredibly kind to me. Rodolfo is very happy to share is knowledge and to help with the work. Kayoko and Rodolfo cook amazing, tasty and healthy food. Moreover, the house is very colorful, each wall is decorated by paintings from people from all around the world. I got to meet and exchange with wonderful people and see beautiful landscapes ! I whish I can visit them again one day ! Grazia, grazie and grazie !!!!

Rodolfo was a wonderful host. He greeted me with kindness. I worked maximum 3.5 hours a day in the field, cleaning and repainting a wall. Rodolfo gave me my own room and healthy vegan food. He would share lunch with me and share his knowledge about eating and living healthy. The other people that live there, Kayoko and Piuma, are very kind and loving too. The people that come for well-being are very nice and Rodolfo creates a community. He was generous and let me participate in the group activities. The beach is 1 hour walk or 20 minutes bike ride. The train station is close by, 15 minute walk. The house is amazing with colorful paintings everywhere. I am very grateful for the opportunity and hope to go back in the near future.
