These are two aspects of the eco resort villages that are key towards building community, enjoying each other, and fostering expanded awareness and skills needed for the Zevolution :~)

Sami Sunchild, a member of our pod, has created www.peacefulworldtravel.org.  It's got links to some great destinations around the world and is headquartered in San Francisco at the Red Victorian.  It's a charming place and if you visit SF please do stop by and visit her - she's inspiring and has a great Bed & Breakfast there with yummy treats, awesome posters, a good internet cafe, and friendly folks.  Anyways, my point is that a cornerstone of the experience there is the peaceful world conversations ~ and these now occur in more than fifty spots around the world with lots of locations in the US, so be sure to check out and see if there's a spot near you.   These conversations are an amazing way to connect people from various backgrounds.

Another good way to start conversations would be to show movies and have discussions afterwards.  I'd like to build up a library of all time great movies, including a bunch of documentaries and informational type movies, at our island resort.   These would be especially useful for the residents and guests for entertainment value.

I've posted a few links below for some inspiration on-line movies that you can download and watch directly from your computer - but these could also be shown onsite and be starting points for discussions.

From Simple Truths, here are 15 online 3-minute movies

From the Achieve E-zine here are another 15, some of them repeats.

What discussions do you host, if any?

Do you have a library at your resort or location?  What kind of movies?  When do you show movies?

For those of you who don't have a place yet, pretend you do :~)
