First Day at the Farm

There is a dry composting toilet for pooping.

We pee into a bucket...the regular toilet is getting fixed.

There are two other WWOOFers...Finn(19) from Portland, OR and Greit(32) from Germany.

One of these days I will take a photo.

We worked building a circular building for yoga and meditation today made only out of lime, hemp, sand, and water (with a stone base).

Today we slept in (until 9 or so) then worked until lunch. Meditation and singing always precede every meal and there is yoga in the mornings (7:30 or so?).

Two women live here and they are both named Didi (one from Vermont, and one from eastern Europe).

Sunrise farm is part of a larger organization called Ananda Marga based out of India. There are farms and locations all over Europe and other parts of the world.

Clea, Greit and I all sleep in a room with 3 bunk beds (6 beds total). Fin is in a room downstairs and Didi is in a room across the hall and each room having 3 bunk beds. The eastern European Didi is a baker and bakes bread for the Sunday farmers market in Scaraf.

If you want to look on google maps we are located right near White Castle, Ireland.

I am in love with the landscape and the towns are very very cute. This whole country is pretty much farmland.

Right about now....

Clea and I have arrived in Dublin and are going to our first farm tonight!

The trip was smooth as a baby's bottom.

The sidewalks are wider than the streets and there are bike lanes everywhere.

T-minus 21hours 38minutes

I am flying out of B-town (Boston to those in the 'know') tomorrow. You might miss me, you might not, it doesn't matter because I will be back in the states on January 24th.

See ya on the flip side (the internet side to those in the 'know').

Who knew.
