TALK // Rewilding, what it means to be human again

Daan lives on a boat in Amsterdam, or wherever the wind takes her. She homeschools her daughters, teaches people how to move naturally, and leads “Verwildernis”,a school for rewilding where people remember how to live with the land again.

She won the first Dutch edition of the tv series Alone, spending 45 days solo in the Norwegian wilderness. At Campfire Stories, she returns with stories of reciprocity, resilience, and what the wild gave back.

WORKSHOP // Nature hides many secret colors within it. During the ecoprinting workshop we will discover together which ones! We search the estate for flowers and leaves of shrubs and trees. With these flowers and leaves we will make prints on textiles. By arranging the flowers and leaves in your own way everyone creates his own pattern. Together we explore different techniques to create patterns with the flowers and leaves. Everyone makes a piece of fabric for the estate, from which we make a large piece of art and a scarf for yourself.

WORKSHOP // Walking-In-Your-Shoes is a transformational process. It is a method which uses our natural gifts for transcendence and empathy to deeply relate to another being. We often refer to it as “spontaneous empathy”. The technique is simple yet profound: In a supportive group setting, or with a facilitator, one states the intention to be another person and begins to move in the space, refraining from imitations or cognitive guesswork, and tunes into the energies and feelings of the body. During the Walking, one experiences a shift of awareness and spontaneously manifests behavior aspects, emotional/psychological states and life-themes of the person they are Walking. The information manifested has been found to have a high degree of accuracy, whether the Walker has knowledge of the person or not.

PARTY // Join us in the early hours of Saturday morning to see in the new day with dancing. It's the perfect way to kick off the day and get those endorphins flowing. Get ready for some epic moving and grooving.
