NuMundo is the story of a group of passionate, young travelers who came together with a purpose: to share first-hand experiences with personal transformation, planetary regeneration, and living in community. We traveled South to reconnect with ancestral roots, the earth and ourselves. Some of us were working on social projects with indigenous communities, others were managing farms and some were organizing events at ecovillages. We found ourselves losing old habitual patterns, truly understanding the majesty of nature and each of our roles within this life.

Slowly, by word of mouth, we discovered hundreds of incredible hubs that we now call “Impact Centers”. An Impact Centers is a land based project that offer individual transformation, regenerative living education and that strives to leave a positive local impact. Impact Centers can be ecovillages, yoga retreat centers, permaculture farms, and social projects.

Through our own stays at Impact Centers, we can confidently say that working with nature is allowing natural ecosystems to thrive, compassionate relationships are alive and well and models are being created for real, regenerative living! We want these models to be spread far and wide, to inspire people young and old to realize another way is possible, and that we are already creating an abundant and joyous world for future generations!

During the 2015  Startup Chile business accelerator program, our team (family) grew and the wonderful NuMundo development team worked day and night to build the first iteration of our website! We just launched the platform with 70 handpicked centers in North, Central and South America. The portal features an interactive map, detailed information and photos about each impact center, the ability to search for specific activities like yoga classes, natural building, cultural exchange, holistic health, and more.

Where will we go from here you ask? We need your help to program more features on the website like opportunity pages, user profiles for travelers, and reviews! Just two days ago, we went public with an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign. We need your help meet our full vision of this and best serve our community. Through the campaign, we seek to build:

The campaign will also allow the nomadic team to meet together through a 2-month hackathon at an impact center in Costa Rica!
