WORKSHOPS:
We have already set up some of the workshops on practical skills: making bread, making soap, cryptography without computers, applied botanic knowledge, mankala, organic agriculture, energetic crisis, actual applications to spear thrower, distilled of “essences”…
Of course, we are waiting for more proposals. And there are more ideas, but we need people to carry the workshop. So, if you want to hold a workshop, please let us know!
ºººººº
So, you need to bring with you:
-sleeping bag or blankets. (It may be a bit cold in Catalonia in June).
- whatever you need for eating: forks, spoons, plates, mug …
We, as the ones who are making the call for this gathering, will take responsibility for organizing the meals (last year a collective assumed to prepare the food with some help from us). So, we will have ready the food for Friday, Saturday and Sunday’s meals, and Monday’s breakfast and lunch. We expect help to cook and do the washing up.
The cost for the food will be about 10 euros per day, but we still have to count more precisely. We tell you in advance!
The food, of course, will be vegetarian with a vegan option.
Also, we hope to be able to organize some events to have fun on Friday’s, Saturday’s and Sunday’s nights.
We are going to have ready anything necessary to play videos and if you would like to show something to the rest of participants, let us know! And we trust in your skills and help.
Children, and people with any special need are welcome, but it will be good to know in advance, in order to ease their reception and to provide whatever you need.
