Competition prize under construction

The other night, we entered the school of arts in Castelo Branco after dark to start the creations of the unique És Amor jacket, that you everyone who supports the project have the chances to win. With the amazing help from the lovely Soraia, we will soon have the jacket finished to show all of you! 

Here is the front part so far! 

We wish you all a beautiful night out there <3

Chuva

 

Boa noite a todos!
A little update from the team to show you all, that more things are under construction in the És Amor camp in Castelo Branco, whilst the rain is falling down outside. Friday we spent inside creating magical creams out of very few and simple ingredients. It was such a fascinating proces - from the first step of watching the bee wax melt slowly till the finished product was filled in the jars and started hardening second for second. And bam, suddenly, many jars of creams were created and ready to use! We are hoping to make a market in Coimbra as soon as possible, where we will sell these creams (and many other crafts) in order to raise more for És Amor. Stay tuned and we will inform you about the specific date of the market, as soon as we know. The night has put its dark cloudy blanket around Castelo Branco and it is time to spend some quality time watching Lion King. We wish you all a beautiful night out there with thousands of stars smiling down at you. <3

The Adagatiya Community

Things are happening in the És Amor camp. Wednesday we went to visit the community, Adagatiya, close to Castelo Branco. We were stunned by the beautiful place and the amazing energy that flows here. Wonderful houses are being build, the enormous garden is blooming and every one puts their good intentions into all little projects, that makes the community live and shine. Have a look at the video and see a little piece of the beauty of Adagatiya.
In the community, we met some good souls, who wants to help the És Amor project with creating a garden and building a clay oven. This is such good news for us! We are so grateful for all this help being send to us from the universe. So right now, we are searching for materials to start a compost and a garden, as this is the season which will give the garden the best conditions. So the sooner we gather things, the better. So, if you have good ideas or contacts to places or people, who could help us get straw, branches, bark chips, logs, clay and sand, it would be an incredible help for us! So please, please - let us know, if you have any ideas in mind.
We can't wait to take the very first step of creating Dreamfield and És Amor :)

Sunshine market in Castelo Branco

 

  

 

Yesterday we spent the most beautiful sunny day in Barrocal, where we had our very first És Amor fair. It was so lovely to experience the support and good vibes from all the beautiful people, who showed up. The sun went down and painted the sky pink and És Amor was suddenly very, very real. We want to thank all of you for coming and bringing magic to this day - now, thanks to you, we are one step closer to És Amor. Tomorrow we are visiting Dreamfield and we can't wait to show you pictures! Stay tuned. Boa noite from the És Amor team <3

Crystal hunting and film creation

 

It's getting real

Imagine. If we travel just a couple of months back in time, all of us were wandering around not having a single clue, that only a few months later, a festival named És Amor - Explore, Explain, Express had been manifested, the idea had been shared across the world and the És Amor team had been shaped. It seems unreal. Now - today, this monday of March - I am sitting in a train towards Copenhagen, watching the snow melting slowly in the Danish scenery with a stomach full of butterflies, as tomorrow I will land with both feet in Portugal. For me, one - very real - step closer to this festival becoming a reality! The És Amor team is slowly getting together, one by one and in the end of March all of us should hopefully be gathered in Portugal, starting the building of the magical Dreamfield, where És Amor will take place in June. Within the next month, we will be able to share pictures and clips from Dreamfield, so you all can get a proper idea of where all this magic will take place. We are so excited to move away from the computers - where all festival preparation have been happening the last month - and out on the actual field, getting our hands and feet dirty, creating a little piece of wonderland for all of you. As the team begins gathering, we will create films, host a És Amor support party, start to find building materials, contact farmers who can help with food supplies, make the final program and start building compost toilets, shower structures, chai tent space, workshop spaces and so much more. We will be updating you as everything takes shape. We cannot wait to share the very first post from Dreamfield! And I bet - in three months time, around the 3rd of June, where a certain festival named És Amor takes off, it will be hard to imagine things as they are today. 

Finally, above is some of the amazing crafts, that has been made by the És Amor team. This will most likely be at the festival, so fear not - you will be able to get your hands on all of this beauty ;-)

Until then, lots of light and love is sent to all of you.
