THE PATH TO OPEN AND AUTHENTIC COMMUNICATION
We are inviting you on a journey to authentic and respectful communication, to the process of building relationships on a deep level, to a transforming experience of transition from chaos to community. In a circle, we meet ourselves and other people in a way that is very different from ordinary communication.
VISION OF M. SCOTT PECK
“There is a yearning in the heart for peace. Because of the wounds and rejections, we have received in past relationships, we are frightened by the risks. In our fear, we discount the dream of authentic Community as merely visionary. But there are rules by which people can come back together, by which the old wounds can be healed.
The purpose of Community Building is to teach these rules — to make hope real again — and to make the vision actually manifest in a world which has almost forgotten the glory of what it means to be human.”

Location
São Vicente da Beira is a Portuguese parish in the village of Castelo Branco, in the province of Beira Baixa, in the region of Centro (Beiras Region) and the sub-region of Beira Interior Sul. The village is located in Beira Baixa, at the bottom of the Serra da Gardunha mountain range, at an altitude of 700 metres.
The land, with a total area of about 7 hectares, consists of terraces with many olive and fruit trees, gardens, vineyards. There is one small house which is used as a community kitchen. There are also two water tanks on the property, one for drinking water and the other for bathing.
Transportation
From Lisbon: The airport includes a metro where you buy a ticket and go to Lisboa – Oriente station. You use your metro ticket when entering and exiting, so be careful not to throw it away during the ride. You can also rent a car at the airport and arrive by car. We can send you prices on request.
From Lisboa Oriente (metro, bus and train stations): you take the train (trains stop at the train station at the very top) to Castelo Branco, the ticket price is about 15 EUR per person and the journey takes about 3-4 hours depending on the type of train. The train is called “comboio” in Portuguese.
From Castelo Branco: You take a shared taxi to São Vicente da Beira. It takes about 45 minutes by car from Castela Branco to the destination. There is a mountain road from the village of São Vicente to the mountains. Exact location of the property: 2CXV+XMR São Vicente da Beira, Portugal.
By own car: take the Auto Estrada (A23), which later provides a connection with the N352, which links to Vila de São Vicente da Beira. The exit on the A23 is the one that marks the direction of Alcains, just after the petrol station in the south-north direction.
