What will you do with the rest of your life?
Does where you live help you live?
Do you feel a kinship with your community? |
Imagine coming home to a community that you helped design. Enjoying a delicious home-cooked meal with neighbors. Relaxing in the privacy of your own home or stepping out and spending time with a network of people who share your beliefs and values.
“Cohousing communities combine the advantages of private homes with the benefits of more sustainable living, including shared common facilities and ongoing connections with neighbors. These intentional neighborhoods, created and managed by residents, offer an innovative solution to today's environmental and social challenges.” - www.cohousing.org
