I loved my life at CVM! Living in community really changed my life for the better. I learned many practical skills with food, gardening, baking and woodworking. I also learned more about the natural environment and how to better interact with the Earth. I learned about conflict resolution, how to better understand myself so I can understand others and in the process, made another family for myself. There was so much to love!
What I wish was different
It would have been cool to be closer to the cities but I also appreciated it's rural location.
Advice
Go ready to see yourself in a new way. The people who I went there to "help" were my greatest teachers. Have an open heart and mind, give a helping hand and everyone will be excited to do the same for you.
