Meet Tribu
Who are we? | Intentional community
In Tribu, we are an intentional community.
We choose to live and relate with presence, care, and respect for life.
Tribu was born from the desire to slow down, to listen—to ourselves, to others, and to the land that holds us. Here, community is not an abstract idea but a daily practice: we share work, knowledge, food, silence, and celebration.
We believe in living simply and responsibly, honoring nature through regenerative practices, collective decision-making, and mutual support. Each person who arrives—whether to stay, volunteer, or visit—becomes part of the fabric that sustains this place.
Tribu is not about escaping the world, but about learning how to inhabit it differently. We are a living experiment in cooperation, care, and belonging. A space where life is built together, intentionally.
We do this through our projects
We implement permaculture in our spaces, both inside and outside the house, with the long-term vision of functioning as a demonstration center for ecological practices and techniques—from the way we use and regenerate resources to the way we process our waste, including the use of dry toilets as a conscious and responsible alternative.
We seek to care for community life by promoting activities that help us connect as humans, both personally and interpersonally. We offer alternative therapies that support physical, mental, and emotional health, such as massages, meditation, yoga, hiking, temazcal, and other practices that foster presence and well-being.
Being a hostel allows us to achieve these objectives by welcoming travelers who arrive in search of a deeper, more conscious connection, inviting them to become part of this living experience, even if only for a short time.
Volunteer Program in Mexico · Living and Caring in Community
We also have a volunteer program, through which we work by open calls (convocatorias) shared throughout the year. This program is designed for people who wish to engage more deeply with community life and the daily care of the space.
The volunteer experience includes accommodation and access to the shared spaces of the house, as well as participation in the projects and rhythms of Tribu. It is an exchange based on collaboration, learning, and shared responsibility.
To learn more about the current open call, please write to us on WhatsApp and ask about the active volunteer program.
