Suryavana, Jérica. Spain 30th July 2024
Deep into the heat here. We are having a few really hot days (35+ Celsius) and definitely more challenging having to do all the jobs that make up Suryavana life. Shopping trips. Topping up the water tank. Repairs. Cleaning the pool etc.
Right now Jesu, my wife, is on retreat which is a big thing. Being “at home” in Suryavana on an Ordination i.e. serious retreat, with some 18/20 women. 10 days of not doing family life. I am really pleased for her. She is helping me out too by keeping an eye on Suryavana.

Hi all. The summer is heat is slowly building up but we were blessed by a few stormy afternoons these days. A pleasant relief after a very dry Winter and Spring.
Shabda report May 2024
Jerica, Spain, 22 May 2024
Hi all. I have skipped a couple months writing in. I am doing ok. We had a quiet month here (May) in Suryavana and soon to begin the busier “summer season” with all sorts of groups; Triratna and otherwise coming through the place.
Spring has arrived more mildly than anticipated. The Winter has been so dry this year, everything so parched and craving water. Thankfully we had a few days of stormy showers giving some temporary respite.
