poppyswickedgarden, add some photos to the flickr group we started for this series. We'd love to see your guys' place! http://www.flickr.com/groups/theresnoplacelikehere/ I got to visit La Selva when I was working on the Sonic Memorial Project with Nikki and Davia in 2002. It felt like home. I never wanted to leave. To this day, I dream about having such a wonderful (and affordable) living situation with family and friends. Nikki, you are an inspiration as always! Everyone should check out the Kitchen Sisters' radio documentaries. So great.

Very inspirin

i am so stoked to see this story. we're trying to do the same thing. much work to be done but our little yurt is up and there's a combined total of 7 kids screaming through the trees.... love the communal kitchen and bathing spaces. great idea...now on to find me some 50ft trusses...
