Where we are

Neos is in an early, pioneering phase. A small core team lives and works at Neos Center. Most days are quiet and intimate, a sanctuary in nature, with bursts of activity when we build, care for the land or host a retreat. It is not yet a busy, established community hub. It suits people who enjoy helping a big vision grow slowly, from the ground up.

Who we are looking for

People who are proactive and self-leading, who need little supervision and take initiative with care and professionalism, and who genuinely want to contribute. We value emotional intelligence, empathy, sensitivity and adaptability: people who are calming to be around, and who collaborate rather than take over.

The exchange

Stays are about one to four weeks. You help for about 4 hours a day, around 20 hours a week. In return you get vegetarian food and a comfortable private room, either in the retreat center or in the shared team house. When a retreat fills the whole Center, the team may need to share a room for a few nights; we always tell you in advance. Outside your hours the place is yours to enjoy: yoga in the event space, swimming, long walks on the land. Depending on who is here, there are community sessions such as breathwork, heart circles and yoga.

How we review

We read applications every two to four weeks and plan stays two to three months ahead. We reply if and when a space fits your dates and skills.

If all of this resonates and feels like a full-body yes, we would love to hear from you.
