    Hello Simon, Do you know there are more AoH practitioners - more or less - in your region? Just check the Austrian Group and the C(entral)Europe Group. You will find likeminded people/thinkers/doers.

    With love,

    Ria

    I do know some folks over there, so please let me know if you need some connections. In the Art of Hosting we always say 'find your mates' - as to not work alone on projects, because with two or more you can hold a deeper energetic field, you install a bigger collective intelligence and you can back each other up when something unexpected happens.

    In Lebanon, there is a woman in Beirut that can be of help - Hala Makaram - I think she is on this website too.
