Our friendship is open, transparent, and built on these three simple principles:

  • You may choose your own contribution to become a Friend of the Foundation.

“Naserena is slowly evolving into a little paradise. Each time I visit there are so many things build and developed, all done with so much detail. I love how perfection and acceptation of how long things take go fluently hand in hand.”

I already felt like a friend when I saw the very first plan for Naserena, and now that Naserena has become a reality, I regularly visit it to enjoy a quiet valley under the Spanish sun, where nature is reclaiming its space and an old farmhouse (a mas) is being restored to its former glory. Anna, Marcel, and their dog Shakti form a harmonious and diverse unity with the trees, the flowers, and the other animals. Their dream of welcoming people here, raising awareness of their place in nature, and helping them find peace is truly heartwarming. And when I get the chance to work on the land, I truly feel one with— and a friend of— Naserena.

I’ve always felt a deep connection to nature, but living in a busy city, that connection sometimes gets lost in the daily rush. I wanted to find a way to support something meaningful — something that contributes to healing the earth while also inspiring people to live more consciously. When I came across the Naserena foundation, it immediately felt right. Their focus on restoring land, planting trees, and creating a space for reflection and growth really spoke to me.

Becoming a friend of the foundation felt like a small, easy step that could still have a big impact. I love knowing that my monthly donation helps create a lasting difference. It gives me a sense of purpose and reminds me that even from a distance, I can be part of something hopeful and grounded in values I care about.

Nature has always been a place to find peace and reconnect with myself — but also to gain new, positive energy. When I read about Naserena and their vision to combine ecological restoration with personal and collective growth, I felt immediately drawn to it. It’s rare to find a foundation that truly honors both the land and the people who care for it.

Becoming a Friend was an easy choice. It’s a small step, but the idea that my contribution supports something long-term and sustainable means a lot to me. It feels good to be able to help from a distance and still feel connected to the bigger picture — to something that truly makes a difference.

I had been wanting to do something real for a while — something that goes beyond just talking about change. When I heard about the Naserena Foundation, it was something I instantly felt drawn to. It’s not just about planting trees, but also about creating a space for reflection, learning, and deep connection with nature. A place where people can slow down, feel at ease, and start seeing what truly matters again — that really inspired me.

By becoming a Friend of the Foundation, I want to feel part of what these people are working to create. Through consistent support, I know I’m helping to plant trees, build a center, and support others on their journey back to nature. That makes it more than just a donation — it’s a contribution to a better world.

From the very beginning, Naserena has felt like “coming home” to me. During my studies, I got to know the region of Aragón when I lived in a small village with a farming family. The rhythm of the day was guided by the weather and the work that needed to be done on and around the farm. That’s exactly how I experience it at Naserena.

Anna and Marcel offer you the space to work on their land while enjoying the peace and serene atmosphere. All of this in a beautiful setting where you can also enjoy stunning walks. Throughout the day, you feel the deep connection with nature — the very essence of Naserena’s mission.

For me, this project bridges the past with the present, but above all, it offers a glimpse into the future, where alternative ways of living and land use take center stage. It’s a privilege to stay here and witness up close how Marcel and Anna are shaping Naserena. I have great admiration for their initiative and perseverance, and I’m proud to support them as a Friend of the foundation.
