Ethical Nomad Volunteers
Rather than our team just working together, we have also have a team of volunteers that live together.
WELL HABIT WORLD is run from a co-living home in Melbourne, Australia where we do more than just talk wellness, we get to test out our principles every moment of every day.
Our community attracts volunteers from all corners of our beautiful planet, and also includes our Airbnb ‘benefactors’ who pay for the joy of living within a wellness social enterprise experiment!
We support and peer coach each other towards wellness in the same way our curriculum would. We also invite colleagues to come and work in our Co-living work community.
Thank you to the many international volunteers whose curiosity, enthusiasm and awesome talent have built and designed our websites, as well as edited and written for our books and curriculum.
