What Colour Are Serepax

The village of pilgrims

A Roncesvalles we get a bowl, a symbol of the pilgrims of Santiago and a little 'you also all the others.
And we have so enriched our small altar on the dashboard.

Before leaving we were in a bookstore to find some fellow traveler on paper ... and, with the anxiety and haste that trick that has marked our leaving, we caught a bit 'in case ... but we can say we were lucky because we found a little gem that has contributed to give meaning to our journey. This is Slow Travel - searching for the luxury of wasting time Gaia De Pascale (ed. Ponte alle Grazie).
We quote a passage, significant for us ...
There is something more, the attractiveness of pursuing such experiences. And it can feel really detached from the territory of origin through a "party", a "separate self", whose spiritual quest, with her take a loss, abandonment - because of its burdens stripped of temporality is really Elsewhere neglecting possible to open a total which is the Kingdom of God is without doubt the highest emblem.
Also, key lay in the opportunity to divide for once the reports required to meet with men who only feel united by ties of choice, individuals who share the same meta, qualunque sia la spinta iniziale a raggiungerla, e insieme ai quali affrontare quelle difficoltà, anche fisiche, che possono diventare una fonte di conoscenza comune dall'inestimabine valore.

Cercare, chedere, conoscere, questo volevano e vogliono ancora oggi i pellegrini o chi ne segue le orme antiche e nuove.




Il pellegrinaggio è uno stato mentale, una disposizione d'animo, prima ancora di un pericoloso tragitto dentro e fuori la propria coscienza...

LAkAbE



Un gruppo di persone in cammino, un progetto che esiste da trent'anni. Una comunità of people who have got the chance to live their dream in a place surrounded by nature, a wild and elegant at the same time. not an ecovillage, but there is some sharing of important work and the economy. A striking example for how to share the money, only a common fund to which all can draw with responsibility, of course. But as he says Tatiana "This part works very well, as well as the garden town" without separation, someone takes care of the garden and who wants to join is free to do so. A LAkabe most common work at the bakery to make organic bread of good quality. This is l'attività produttiva prevalente ma ce ne sono anche altre, come la birra, il formaggio, i saponi.....

Tra gli abitanti che sono circa una cinquantina fissi, esistono correnti nuove di pensiero, tra cui un gruppo di giovani che desidera sperimentare la comunità e condividere maggiormente la quotidianità e lo spazio abitativo, cercando di trovare obiettivi ideali, modelli educativi per i bambini che siano comuni, verso i quali camminare insieme.
Un impegno di Lakabe è alimentare alcuni mezzi con bio diesel.... Con olio vegetale, anche se non è molto promosso come carburante perchè non è tassabile come il petrolio ed è fuori dal mercato.

The village has a mayor Lakabe, is a recognized village and is politically active and famous for its small and big struggles. One example is the boycott of nearby villages who have passively accepted the construction of a dam and a tunnel that have marred the landscape of its original appearance. Boycott, which is realized by sending children to school in the country although it is far more uncomfortable, or go elsewhere to shop.

We eat lunch together in the home town of Pueblo, where dinner is served to guests only, or rather to people who are in the "trial period" and live in the shelter that has common areas and also where we stayed. The food is good, healthy and served on the center tables, all with distinctive swivel because everyone can use. It 'a show and a dance that is created among the guests.

front of the house of the pueblo there is a geodesic dome which for now is used for festive occasions.

The geodesic dome is a building very interesting both for its simplicity of implementation and for the beautiful energy that you feel inside standogli. We have known for the first time at the site of Torre Pellice Kanbar.




Lakabe not live because we feel a greater need for sharing, both at the project level of spirituality is which we believe allow you to have a common basis from which you do not call into question and that allows people to grow inside both as individuals and as a group.

Lakabe I'd live in the simplicity of life and their energy, which in a few months ago to rebuild the country's largest house, all together, after it burnt down following an accident.

A special place is given to the study and seek to disseminate and use the Basque language. In fact throughout the country and in many homes is all covered with labels indicating the names of objects, and each week you can study together in the common room.





Art also has an important place in many parts of the country you can see the attention to detail and pieces of art that speak of who lives and who has lived in the community.




Lakabe Thanks for letting us see that we can live well from the economic point of view, working together, thanks for letting us see that the economic sharing can also work very simply. Thanks for letting us actually realize that being a community of people who are looking for alternatives may mean to be recognized by society as a group of citizens has the right to have a mayor and finance to be spent wisely and not prostituting their electoral vote to have the dumpster closest to your home!
Thanks again for making us feel welcome by your people as we are looking for an alternative to the "blender" that makes you find in bed at night with almost Essert realized he had lived one of your precious days of life that will never return.
