COMMUNITY–LIVING

With AWARA BANJARA
REALIZATION

Once Awara Banjara was founded, we stepped into the compitetive & never-ending bubble of Tourism & realized we were loosing our peace of mind! Also we observed that most travellers are not so conscious or even respectful towards our nature. Distracted by social media & capitalism, most tourists will litter, bring harm to wildlife or simply be loud & noisy. We had to do something about it.

INITIATION

We decided to give more emphasize on ‘Conscious - Tourism’ & ‘Sustainable - Travelling’. As we grew, we also learned that real enthusiasm & passion breeds only in few. Soon we started seeking out for, especially, such kind of travellers with a respect towards wildlife & a dream to make the world more beautiful! People started reaching us out. With the vision of travelling & even living together, we started making stronger connections on every tour. Folks started coming back to us, asking us to help them explore more, & a wish to stay longer, away from their cities, from the chaos.

MANIFESTATION

We understood that now we need a space to commute with fellow travellers & dreamers! So our team started a mission to find such a safe space, where musicians, artists & travellers can meet & live together. We were manifesting a big family & a beautiful home. We had a vision & some funds, but we must put more energy into it. Thankfully, around then, with the help of local support & our founders, we acquired a couple of traditonal, old but beautiful houses. That too, in a quiant village in a hidden valley in Himachal Pradesh.

ACTION

It seemed like a dream come true, but we realized now is the time to work. We started inviting travellers & friends of friends to come & experience community living. We decorated the home, made Art & started having jam sessions with travelling musicians. Stories & knowledge exchanged & we grew wiser. We initiated free stay for the family & a communal kitchen was introduced to share the living costs & have feasts together!

What happens here at the Community?

It’s a gathering of beautiful people from all around the world. A coming together of ideas & energies to create magic every moment! Here we have encountered artists, Yoga masters & teachers, phenomenal cooks, musicians from different backgrounds & travellers who have been to every continent on the Earth.

We let this organic exchange of skills happen. Now at this community house, we invite & welcome all individiuals to share there knowledge & visions.

Here we conduct worshops & actvities, without any personal benefit, for the community & our family. We have space & are open for:

  • YOGA courses & workshops.
