    Hey my names is Inbar and I'm 21 years old and I've been living in a commune since i was 18. In a few months I will be backpacking through Europe and i was wondering if there is anyone who lives in a commune or knows of a commune somewhere in europe I can visit because I'd really like to see how other communes live.
    have a great day,
    Inbar.

    hey inbar

    were u living in a kibbutz? (im assuming that you are israeli by your name)
    and which country do u want to know about?
    For example here is a list from england, that i got through the intentional communities website. http://directory.ic.org/records/index.php?action=search_results&conjunction=and&full_text_search=&cmty_name=&locations%5Bstate_prov%5D%5B%5D=&locations%5Bcountry%5D=United+Kingdom&locations%5Bstate_prov_other%5D=&forming=&trait%5B39%5D%5Bcheckbox%5D=either&trait%5B31%5D%5Bcheckbox%5D=either&trait%5B32%5D%5Bcheckbox%5D=either&trait%5B40%5D%5Bcheckbox%5D=either&trait%5B16%5D%5Bcheckbox%5D=either&trait%5B17%5D%5Bcheckbox%5D=either&trait%5B23%5D%5Bcheckbox%5D=either&x=34&y=11

    Alternatively just have a look through their search parametres.... just chose the type of commune that you want and it will find it. Here is the link to search their database: http://directory.ic.org/records/?action=search
    peace and love

    well your name is inbar... thats a jewish name... and i havent heard of any americans called inbar, only 1 israeli even (inbar perlmutter, the israeli rock singer who has passed away). And if you are Israeli (where communes/kibbutzim are a part of everyday life, and structured society) its not exactly very unlikely that you would live in a kibbutz.
    So keep me informed about whats happening with you :)
    peace and love

    Hello,
    I don´t live in a Commune, but I live here in North Germany. You could stay here with my family and I; or you could hook up with some of the "Eco villages" here in Germany, they have both city and rural communities. I´m by the way, not that its all so important, but I´m an American living here in Germany. Good Luck, and get ready to do 40 hour work weeks, which will most likely be expected of you! :)
