This photo shows the Volcán de Fuego de Colima as seen from the surroundings of Roca de Hadas, an eco village project located in South Jalisco, Mexico. The area is characterised by dry forest vegetation, open landscapes, and strong volcanic presence. Volunteers staying at the project are immersed in a quiet, nature-based environment, with daily activities taking place close to this landscape. The setting reflects the rural and off-grid character of the volunteer exchange, focused on permaculture, natural building, and simple living.
