These last weeks have been the most productive since the project began 6 months ago. We’ve had numerous WWOOFERS from countries such as Canada, New Zealand, US, Austria, France, Germany, Mexico, Peru, Colombia, Guatemala, Cuba, Japan, Australia and Norway!

The male and female toilet were designed using concrete blocks and cement on the shape of a piloting chair and the female one is shaped as a heart!  

The bathrooms were created using an old system of Bajareque (Sticks together reinforced with wired and nails).  Cement mortar is then applied as an insulating agent to hold the entire structure – Due to the time schedule and not fully understanding natural plasters yet, in the future we will use tadelak or other forms of insulating water protective plaster.

The Palapa #2 (yet unnamed) was given a paint coat using acrylic to make the wood shine. Then two coats of earthen plaster were applied inside as an insulating agent; the following step is to apply lime, cactus (Nopal) and soy oil to fully insulate and protect it from cracking. It will act as a water repellent, also giving it a beautiful finishing.

The Stone Fire Circle was finally completed! It’s located in the heart of Zone 02. Geographically, it is located in the center of all other structures, making use of the sacred geometry perspective. There are 3 doors, one for each cardinal direction. The south entrance is now closed (this is where where one of our Wwoofers friend planted a sacred Lemurian Crystal). An ancient Stella that I found in the property is placed as an altar right behind it. The kitchen in Zone 01 is also finally completed. To this day it is the biggest structure, measuring 8 by 5 meters.

I can’t imagine how the Embassy will be transformed in 2014 with so much love and support from the community. The embassy is bound to grow and expand. It will fulfill my life’s work. 

Thank you for all the love and support for this past year and to my closest friends who have seen this grow and believed in me since day one. Love you all!

Cooking the old fashioned way. This month we will upgrade into a fully working rocket stove as we get the kitchen ready with cabinets, etc.

We are blessed to have so much abundance of magical trees to build us shelters and provide us with so much help. After completing part of the building process, our goal is to plant as many trees, in order to restore balance and co-create a beautiful home in the jungle.

When the project started in July, it was the rainy season. Now the dry season has come and all the debris of clearing will be burnt. We are using the leaves as compost. The hard wooden timber is used for cooking. The rest goes to the fire pit.

Many of the building around Embassy follow this sacred geometry symbol, which represents the hyper cube crop circle! One of the most powerful symbols that has ever been imprinted! We are implementing it into almost every aspect of the Embassy, such as the windows of the living structures, the permaculture garden mandala, the water sinks and the layout of various zones.

Lemurian Time Capsule. We buried this stone tablet inside the main healing fire pit during the first fire. Its purpose is to stream a powerful code of love and high vibration so by consciously planting it, it will power up the engine for many years ahead.
