Hello from Noong O
Hoa Binh, Vietnam
Awe
the feeling of being so small I begin to wonder if there’s a “me” at all
Welcome to Awe,
We wish to live, learn together & evolve into better human beings. We will do this by building connections and a deep sense of belonging within the broadening heart of our community & Mother Nature.
From this dream, we gave birth to the project AWE that holds space to embrace and emerge more moments of awe in life – when we feel amazed and overwhelmed by either physical or psychological things that bring deep learning and transformation.>
Who are we?
We are Kin, Trung, Hưng, My, Thảo Trang together with Rây Rây, Kem, Mật Mía and many other beings.
We started to manifest our dream in December 2021 in a space called Noong Awe Garden in the Northwest of Vietnam, which is also to honor its old name in local Thai language as Noong Ó (pond of elephant grass). Our address is Thanh Son commune, Mai Chau district, Hoa Binh province.
What we sense, learn and share

Bridging From Dream to Reality
The journey of transforming an ecovillage dream into reality is one on which many of us embark, but often with uncertainty about where to begin or how to move forward. This blog post is a reflection on how we bridge the gap between dreams and tangible outcomes.

Healing Forest Walk
Last weekend, our friends joined us in the first activity organised by Project Awe called The Healing Forest Walk. Together with 03 local guides, we had a chance to admire the overstory of the forests near our village and learn about medicinal plants we saw on the way.
