Storygardenz

Storygardenz are special places which have inspired a special story, which is still a living voice, in the words and actions of people. Storygardenz   are a are havens - removed from noise, propaganda and also conventional thinking - dedicated to the pursuit of quality time (leisure, vacation, research) and any human  activity requiring  creativity and intuition. Many  storygardenz offer accommodation (villas, hotels etc.). As such, by slowing down rhythms and extending the exposure to the power of stories, Storygardenz are able to contribute to the alteration of the functioning of the brain, resulting in greater well-being, a renewed vision of the world and of the web of life. This is cultural ecology.

Storygardenz cannot be classified by level of luxury, or comfort, but by their ability to convey a story, enchantment and a renewed vision.
