Yalls reverse head nods messed me up more than anything!
And yes, me too. I actually worked on a farm out there. It is called the Balkan Ecology Project - check it out

i did eventually get used to the nodding after a year in prison, and then not long after that i'm back outside bulgaria and adjusting back to "normal" and omg lol.
the cult of "eko" is not something i want to have anything to do with. i saw way too much of it when i was back in australia, i had already figured out that veganism is a scam to sell GMO food a decade ago and i'm more sure of that now than ever. and energy efficiency, oh, there's a practical side to it, but what we see being implemented is just a way of them making more money while you get used to living on less and less until you are scratching around in the dirt, middle ages style eating oats and bloated bellies and endless infectious diseases.
This place doesn’t fit that description. The guy who runs it is a very realistic guy. Would fit in well with your average ‘nostrich’
i'm not surprised... balkans people are more practical in general. but the loonies are out there. when i was in Novi Sad i encountered a woman who was involved in this "nikola tesla foundation" which was basically this two bit cult with some dude whose name is nikola tesla. no idea if it was his legit name because i doubt serbians would pick such a name (or bosnians, or croatians) for their child unless they were meaning to torment them. guy was in his late 50s, typical eco cult leader type, and the girl in question was as stiff as the typical cult girl is.
that's the thing that comes to mind when i think of "eco something" anything most of the time. that and rice milk lattes and protesting against people having cows. or something.
