🌱 Bringing new life to communities.

At Inesto, our Regenerative Placemaking approach revitalizes neighborhoods and destinations in a thoughtful, inclusive way. We harmonize the physical spaces with the local culture, businesses, and natural environment through responsible development.

🌀 Places truly thrive when all those elements come together. Instead of imposing top-down designs, we start by listening to diverse community voices. We immerse ourselves to understand the unique challenges, strengths and aspirations for that specific place.

This allows us to cultivate a shared sense of ownership over the placemaking vision from the very start. The community helps shape and guide the process through to completion.

♾️ We carefully plan amenities, programming and vibrant spaces that bring people together across different zones. This creates organic connections and cross-pollination between neighbors.

Our approach embraces testing ideas through quick, low-cost pilot projects before any major construction. We can gather feedback, build momentum and evolve long-term plans over time.

💫Placemaking is an ongoing journey, not a one-time project. We implement local stewardship and governance so the community can nurture the place's growth and transition for years to come.

See how Inesto breathes new life into the special places and neighborhoods you care about.

Eco-nomads, get ready to experience remote work in full bloom at Roots Coliving an off-grid gathering reimagining how we can live, create, and belong. 🌱✨

For two weeks this summer, we'll be rooting down in the pioneering ecovillage of Grain&Sens tucked in France's stunning *Ardèche* region. This is your chance to embody the future of regenerative living through:

🍃 Hands-on workshops with eco-villagers like permaculture gardening, natural building, forest foraging and more

🌳 Participating in the village's circular systems for food, housing, resources and community self-sufficiency

☀️ Basking in the natural surrounding nature while you'll still have everything you need to meet your remote workflow with dedicated co-working periods and inspiring accommodations

Join us from May 27 - June 12 to experience how technological nomadism can harmonize with ancient wisdom and a rekindled belonging to our life-giving planet. The village is calling...will you answer?

Follow the link inesto.it/products/france-pop-up-coliving to learn more about this ecological yet elevated gathering bringing the eco-nomad ethos to life. Let's get rooted!

Chapter 9

I don't know if in rural we trust rural, Or it is in rural where we find trust

I don't know if it's because of the views of paradise, or it is the grifones that make us look up to the sky.

I don't know if the intuitive power of Autumn, or it is our own intuition welcoming our seasons.

I don't know if it is the wisdom of the elders or the vitality of the youngest.

I don't know if it's the hugs that make you feel at home, or are they the questions that expand us.

I don't know if it's the color of the sea, the smell of wet earth, or the sound of the rain.

I don't know if it's the heat of our bodies. Or the expression of our ancestors

I don't know if they are the meetings around the Sicilian table or the kindness of our gestures and our care.

The only thing I think I know is that I see you, I see us, beyond the masks, beyond the images, beyond the words and gestures. Sharing the traces of our civilization, to continue writing the history of our peoples

I'm sorry, I love you, Thank you

Chapter 8: Food for the Soul

🍅Under Alessandra's expert guidance, we entered the kitchen brimming with curiosity about the culinary treasures she and Camilla would share. They cooked for us with real soul, infusing each homemade lasagna, pasta alla norma and vegetable with mindfulness and deep care.

🍝On Sundays, we gathered in the village's main piazza, where a feeling of togetherness swept over us around simple wooden tables. There, bonding over plates of local specialities, we rediscovered food as Italians' first love.

🥧We remember also when Signora Maria's cake and pane fritto , her kindness in baking for the whole community warmed our hearts!

🍋Food brings people together like nothing else, and in San Marco, we all felt nourished, body and spirit.

Chapter 7: Dancing

We kicked off our creative day with a warm-up of static dance moves in the medieval church. Dancing like nobody was watching, we shook and jumped to release energy, and tension and let happiness flow freely.

That evening, we had the fortune to meet Pippo, a local dance group who taught us their traditional Sicilian dances. Circle upon circle, we twirled around, mixing traditional Sicilian steps with an international flair.

Whether in sync or not, smiles lit up as new friends connected through movements.

Chapter 6: Finding Inspiration

Vittorio Ballato, one of the first artists hosted by Inesto and the village of San Marco d'Alunzio, played an important role in piloting their vision for cultural exchange and placemaking.

By live painting iconic landscapes, architecture and playing handcrafted didgeridoos carved from local agave plants, Vittorio immersed himself in the rural culture alongside an international group. In exchange, he shared his artistic skills and perspective with the village and with all of us.

Vittorio's residency was the first in our local creative residency program, demonstrating how temporary residents like artists, remote workers, and digital nomads could meaningfully integrate into the village through cultural activities. It provided practical insights into how the village could attract and retain diverse talent long-term by cultivating a vibrant creative community.

Chapter 4: Spreading Smiles

From our first moments in San Marco, smiles lit up every face we encountered. The villagers radiated warmth and openness that was infectious. Between hand gestures, hugs and cheek kisses, smiles became our shared language when words failed.

During creative workshops, smiles emerged as we overcame doubts and discovered talents within. On scenic hiking trails above the town, heavy breaths gave way to smiles taking in sweeping sea and mountain views. And smiles lingered as we reluctantly said our goodbyes, a promise to meet again one day in the future.

The smiles of San Marco's people reminded us that simple human acts of kindness are what unite communities. Their smiles sustained and nourished us, leaving an impression that will last forever. In return, we hope our own smiles helped spread joy, as together we celebrated life's beauty in this special place.

Chapter 3: Opening Up: Sharing Stories & Goals

💫There's nothing like open dialogue to spark new connections. As the night sky lit our circle, we took turns sharing our backgrounds, dreams, and ideas for supporting rural communities.

⭕️Diverse perspectives blended into shared social inclusion goals, eco-sustainability, and cultural exchange.

🔄By opening our hearts to one another, powerful bonds and collaborations were ignited - proof of how sharing fuels rural revival

Chapter 3: The Power of the Circle

💫Sitting face to face in a circle, an unspoken understanding emerged. Each voice was heard with equal weight as we went around sharing experiences, challenges, and hopes.

⭕️The circular format broke down barriers, fostering empathy and community. Ideas flowed freely without interruption, building on each other in organic ways. By gathering in a circle, diverse backgrounds melted away so our shared humanity could shine through.

🔄This simple yet profound arrangement proved the circle's ability to empower all voices and spark collaborative solutions.

❗❗❗ Last Minute Openings ❗❗❗

We have 4 spots that just became available for our Moroccan Pop-Up Coliving happening from January 7-21.

This is an intimate retreat between friends and collaborators, we plan to work and slow down in Essaiuora and prepare for the 2024 events of retreats, coliving, and projects.

Our Moroccan Homebase 🏡

We've secured a beautiful small riad right in the heart of Essaouira's medina, just for our crew. It's a 5-minute walk from the beach where mornings will find Paola doing finally some beach yoga and Gio & Ivan catching waves.

As a small group of friends, we're looking forward to making the most of this home away from home. Cozy up on the rooftop terrace, immerse in local flavors by shopping the market for fresh fish and grilling in nearby cabanas. Sip on sugarcane juice and honey-argan treats.

The plan is to enjoy downtime together in this chill coastal oasis and use the Riad as our base to cultivate new ideas and initiatives. Morocco has a way of inspiring creativity - we can't wait to see what comes of this retreat!

we didn't plan to have here with us other than our team and a few friends but actually 4 of us called to cancel we turned this inconvenience into the possibility of meeting other nomads, It would be a nice way to start 2024

✨🔥Join us for this meaningful and chill experience based out of beautiful coastal Essaouira. Spend two weeks connecting with an international community, exploring Moroccan culture, and nurturing your vision and well-being.

🌿We believe rural communities have a bright future when guided by the creativity and passion of young people. Through our international training programs, we're empowering the next generation of rural peacemakers to shape their own visions.

🌻Last month in Sicily, we hosted our first training which brought together 26 youth workers, digital nomads, and artists. In March, we'll welcome 28 more change-makers from across Europe for the next stage of this journey.

🌱During the program, participants will collaborate, share ideas, and learn tools for fostering entrepreneurship, well-being, and sustainable development in their home regions. Upon returning home, they'll work directly with local youth to turn ideas into reality.

🌈In January, we'll also host a pop-up collaborative coliving to envision new projects and partnerships. Over intensive brainstorming and idea-sharing, our network of rural catalysts will explore fresh approaches to community development, social innovation, and youth empowerment in nature-near areas. The seeds planted at this creative planning retreat will take root in many promising initiatives to come.

🌀By connecting innovators across borders and empowering grassroots initiatives, we're helping to build a future for rural areas that is community-led. The future remains unwritten - let's create it together through cooperation and place-based action.

We're loving this update from our partners at Asociación Sociocultural Grupo Cinco Cuenca!

It's so rewarding to see how the tools and activities from our In Rural We Trust training are being applied to empower young people in local communities. The forum theatre technique and solution-focused activities helped the youth group La Brújula explore challenges and opportunities in new ways.

Thanks for sharing this impact - it's great exposure to the project's approach to rural development. We can't wait to see what other communities across Europe do with the methods learned through our Erasmus+ funded training. Experiences like this are why we do what we do!

New Year, New Village - San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily

We're kicking off 2024 in the idyllic coastal village of San Vito Lo Capo. Located on Sicily's western tip, San Vito offers a laidback seaside escape surrounded by crystal-clear waters and nature reserves.

In March, we'll host our first rural business training there. Along with workshops developing sustainable tourism strategies, we'll incorporate ecstatic dance by the sea, home-cooked meals using local ingredients, and exploring the area.

We're pleased to partner with organizations based in San Vito throughout 2024 on community projects, retreats, and training programs. Our collaborative approach supports regenerative tourism, rural regeneration, and social impact - key priorities for the village.

Through meaningful experiences, skills exchanges, and joint initiatives, we aim to create positive change and support San Vito's vision. Stay tuned for more details on our March program, and future 2024 plans.
