About our community Badulina

Badulina, known also as Rainbow Terrace exist about 5 years already.
We are on about 350m high in the Alpujarra mountains, in a valley called El Morreon. This is the neighbourhood, where are a lot of alternative people and different communities are living more less together. The little village close by is called Orgiva. Practically 50% of the 6000 people here and around are foreigners. This makes living here very special. Many people came here from their home countries to look for nice weather, more freedom, connection to nature and like minded friends to begin a new life in a new way. That´s why most of them stay open and willing to help others who do the same.

For us most important is that we can live here together with an open heart and uplifting energy, that we are happy to see and meet each other in the daily contact. That´s why, it is also important that we are not using drugs or alcohol. In a case that someone drinks a glass of wine on a party or is really nice and sociable after a joint we may tolerate that but when people just sit stoned for whole day - it is not what we want.
This and other aspects create very friendly and safe atmosphere for children, who are constant and always very welcomed in our place.
There are three cats living on the terrain so the dogs who are staying by us have to be gentle with them and with the kids and our ears as well ;)
We are very variable in size. 40+ in winters and 10 in average in the summers. Many people come with campers, tents, buses, or just backpacks. We live in campers, caravans, domes, yurts and  in few houses. Many people are here for a few weeks to a few months, some stay longer and many come back every year. All are always very positive about the place.
Especially because we are planning to expand to another project we are looking for longer term community members that can commit their life and energy and with who we can build together the future.
We live on about 4 terraces with many olive trees, and about 2 hectares of land in total. 
Things are changing constantly and comfort levels are slowly improving.
We have excellent drinking spring water from a near by village that we collect in bottles. We have solar systems and our own internet café with connection on wifi. We have communal, rather vegetarian kitchen, that people can join to eat together for only 20 euro per week. From willingness ( not obligatory ) of equal input together, we buy food, cook and take care for it.
We are not a Rainbow gathering, but a community of mostly rainbow people. Ideas are coming from inspiration and from what people want to do enthusiastic involving the others. During a year we have common olive harvest, Tango classes, mantra singing nights, yoga classes, yurt building workshops, singing classes, tantra workshops etc.
There are possibilities of building something, or rebuilding the ruins. There are possibilities joining our bigger projects what involve some investments of energies and money. One way or another we are creating our life and together we are stronger. Together is much more fun :) So join us if you feel so. Do not hesitate to ask the questions
Love and Light
