más acerca de nosotros
Aunque originalmente holandeses, Marina y Paul se conocieron en la Costa del Sol en 1994 y viven en el sur de España desde 1978 y 1989 respectivamente. Nos llamamos en broma Holandaluzes pero nuestro corazón siente que es más que una broma.
our decision to turn our finca...
Our decision to turn our finca in Mijas, into a natural living & wellbeing retreat came about, shall we say naturally, as we could no longer ignore the fact that the world at large started making less and less sense. In 2018, our now adult children moved on and we were ready for our next adventure together. It turned out that everything we had been studying and learning in our free time over the last 20 years, could now be applied in practice.
What does it take to live more in contact with the earth and the seasons? To grow our own food? To limit our waste? What are we willing to give up? What will we not live without? Far from virtuous we consider our journey a pragmatic one where finding our balance is becoming a continuous exercise. And yes we want to harvest joy, always.
Depending on where you are on your own journey you will consider us anything in between extremists and imposters. It is not our intention to tell anyone what to do or how to live. We do want to share what we have discovered and hope it may, at worst: trigger your curiosity and at best: inspire you to do something similar.
Marina (55) has an international background where hospitality and wellbeing always played an important role.
Paul (63) has had a medical profession and is now a painter and an avid permaculturist.
Our children Tessa (23) and Sebastian (22) were born in Spain and are now discovering the world and themselves and contributing to BtLT with their own talents.
Entonces, ¿por qué Back to la Tierra?
Regresar a La Tierra fue una elección consciente, regresar a la tierra. De vuelta al suelo. A las raíces de lo que realmente es la vida. La Tierra ha sido un lugar especial para nosotros desde que vimos la finca por primera vez en 2006 y la compramos, locamente. Se sentía como un lugar donde podíamos hacer todas las cosas que tenían sentido para nosotros...Y resulta que a los demás también.
Ahora Back to la Tierra es un lugar para recibir a aquellos que anhelan una forma de vida más natural en una elegancia simple. Para descansar y relajarse o aprender e inspirarse. O ambos.
Todos necesitamos un poco de Vuelta a La Tierra de vez en cuando. ¿Tienes curiosidad por saber lo que ofrecemos? Leer aquí.
