Cob Oven

Costa Rica 2005

Cob, Stone, Clay,
This was my first Cob project, which I learned from books, web, talking with others and from just doing it! The clay is from the surrounding area and is generally pure enough without needing to be filtered. The sand is from a local river bed. Normally I would use sharp sand, but there was enough 'bite' to make it usable. The fibre is Vettiver. This was added to the mix as short-chopped pieces (5 to 10 cm) and also as full-length fibres (up to 1 metre long) added during the building process. 'Dry' mix proportions for the cob: Sand 80% Clay 10% Fibre 10% n class="read-more">Read more »

New guestbook entries

Amazing experience!!

Submitted by kali ma on 17. November 2011 - 22:54
Wow, what a place to be in and what a healing workshop (GAIA-Initiation) that we took part in. There were 16 courageous souls working together to let go of what we don't need anymore and bring deep and creative healing to ourselves and the planet. Everything shone ... the weather, the food, the company, the surroundings, the peace, the magic and the constant connection with the heart of nature. I look forward to coming back soon. Much love to the family of Sensaciones and all that are lucky enough to visit her xx

The children of the end of the world

Impressions of Valle de Sensaciones

Talking stick, Comunal living, Green building, Senses,
Llegamos a un paraje escondido entre pequeñas montañas donde una vertiente de agua oxigena el valle y propicia que muchos árboles lo cobijen. Sigue siendo verano y el calor es todavía agobiante. Achim nos recoge, nos lleva a pasear el lugar y nos invita a sentirlo – “Nos encontramos en un rato para comer” nos dice y se va dejándonos en nuestra pequeña casa octagonal hecha de arcilla. Pero ésta no es la única de su estilo, el lugar está lleno de construcciones ovaladas, octagonales, amorfas; unas sobre los árboles y otras sobre las lomas, unas que se mecen y otras que cobijan. n class="read-more">Read more »
