✨ What a time to be alive!
Incredible humans,
Yes, the world feels messy. Yes, it feels uncertain. But deep in my bones, I trust that things are not falling apart — they are falling back together.
A few weeks ago Luca and I returned from an unexpected extended trip to Cuba. What began as a flight cancellation became one of the most beautiful gifts — witnessing the resilience, joy, and humanity of the Cuban people.❤️
When Luca went back to school he said, “Mama, my friends missed me so much! They were all in front of me asking about Cuba. I told them about Che Guevara, the revolution, the to***co plantations, and that people didn’t have electricity but they danced all the time. They are poor but very happy. I don’t think my friends understood what I was talking about… but then I told them about the ocean and how much we swam in it. Ah! And that Cuba has the best bread in the world!”
My Luca constantly reminds me that life itself is the greatest classroom.
And speaking of new chapters…
✨Familia, we are about to launch the A-Frame cabins at ZaNa Hai.
These cabins are not just homes in nature.
Owners will become accionistas (shareholders) in a protected sanctuary dedicated to:
🌿 land restoration
🌿 holistic wellbeing
🌿 retreats and learning spaces
🌿 regenerative living
❤️The cabins will allow us to fund the holistic center — ceremonial spaces, regenerative land systems, workshops, retreats, a living classroom for soil, water, and spirit.
This is not just real estate.
✨It is stewardship.
✨It is belonging to something meaningful.
✨It is building a legacy that can outlive us.
More details about the project and the structure protecting the land will be shared soon.
If this resonates with you, stay close. Something special is emerging.
Thank you for walking this path with us.
Por el bien de todos,
Dess & The ZaNa Hai Team ❤️🙏🌵
