- Alex Carpenter & Cristina Silva Toledo came to India in 2015 with a budding dream of living a life close to nature & also help conserving and restoring forests & wildlife habitats.
After meeting people resonating with the same dream in Goa, the couple along with a few friends soon went on to lease out an abandoned cashew plantation in Agonda with the intention of living off-the-grid in the most eco-friendly manner possible.
The result was ‘The Tribe Goa’, an off-grid eco-village that catered to tourists that wanted to experience the bliss of living in nature and also focused on community living based on sharing, restoring natural habitats & reforesting degraded areas in and around their property.
From working with the Forest Department & rescuing wildlife to restoring forests & ecosystems these guys have a truly inspiring story to tell!

I m from Goa but these guys are doing more for Goa then anyone else. They have collaborated with Goa Government for few projects which is incredible. Love the intention
Where is this exactly can u plz tell me as I'm also from goa
Why should the government be trusted?.
I am so happy to see this
These are my sentiments too. I must travel to Goa to meet them and see their property. Much promotion is needed to change behaviours and realise that we are destroying our planet rather than preserving it. Fabulous work guys ❤
Gati hai tu or tu goan nahi hai
I am a sri lankan, now living in Canada. Fled the country as a refugee due to genocide war against the tamils. I grew up living in this type of house in my village. Most beautiful and relaxing nature of the world. Watching this video and the people just makes me want to go back to the simple, stress free, lifestyle. Love you guys!
Stay strong buddy 💪🇮🇳
Lanka 4EVA 🇱🇰 ❤️🙏
We Indians love you guys, you are always welcome in India 🇮🇳❤.
@@infinite5795 rahne de Bhai we don't need no LTTE they will come and agan start demanding divison of India. Khalistanis and LTTE we don't need.

I am from Tamilnadu, living in Germany. I have already plan to move to My mother land and to live with Nature....this video is eye opener for every human in the world...this world not only for humans ...but also for Animals and Plants....❤🍀
You ought to. Working from anywhere in the world will soon be possible as the need to work in offices will go away. 👍
Beautiful put...wish you the best 👍
There is no such country as Tamil Nadu ltte is dead stay in Germany we don't need no LTTE (and any one who thinks why I called her LTTE or whether i am anti Tamil - she should have writen I am Tamil working in Germany and i plan to move back to India )
Yes, life can get very mechanical and soul less in Europe..
@@anshulbhardwaj4038 Chill, mate. The lady's message said NOTHING about TN being a country or her motherland! Why bring up the Tigers in a conversation about home? We keep infighting like this and wonder why India is facing such turmoil internally! For God's sake... give peace a chance! ☮🙏🕉
This should get viral and deserve to be heard by every person on this planet. I will try my part and request all to share it.
No thank you. We do not want Goa turning into another Miami or Ibiza.
@@maxmedia8640 hi. Can we visit yours?
@@aml9999 you want to come live in Miami?
A BIG NO! Not everything has to go viral... Some are best left untouched
No only talentless singers and mumble rap. Go viral. Oh yeah and MrBeasts same exact videos.
I'm a goan n i love the fact tht ull r making an effort to save our mother nature n not destroying it like our politicians..God bless ull for taking care of our tiny beautiful goa🙏
Yes you are right, Politicians have mostly corporate interests, unfortunately... It's us who have to take action! Each and everyone of us ☺🙏🏼
@@abhijeetkumar2204 ignorant nationalist thinking. How many Indians live in foreign countries? Should they all be "kicked out" as well? I'll bet you there are more Indians living abroad than there are foreigners in India. Engage brain before spouting off.
@@abhijeetkumar2204 jobless pajeet 🤡
Back to our ansisters living.... We we evolved now .... Every one should go back like this mother earth will heal
We love you Alex and Christina, You are enlightened in body and spirit, Its only souls like you that can save this planet and humanity. You have genuinely taken the first step to making Earth the garden of Eden it once was. May our Heavenly Father Bless you in all that you do.
It's always someone from outside ( be it another state or a country ) that comes to Goa's rescue while we knowingly destroy it everyday.
Thank you for doing what all of us should be doing.
Now all I see is concrete jungles coming up everywhere with 'outsiders' ruining the environment. These are our fellow Indians who are making goa into another 'Dubai' !
Same here in the North East India
Absolutely, to add to that, people choose to burn dry waste, whether it's plastic, rubber or even dry leaves.. And when told off, they're get aggressive 🤦♀️🤦♀️
It's like"the grass is always greener on the other side". Nothing new.
@@noelladsouza2411 In the advanced countries of northern Europe they burn waste and trees for electracity.
To me Goa being seen as a party destination was so uninteresting . But to see the diversity of microcultures is very interesting. The tolerance and promotion of the importance of diversity in India, it will become an example to our whole world.
We are experiencing an existential, cultural phenomenon in which the mere acquisition of material goods has become the source of satisfaction for a great many people. Congratulations on your efforts toward enabling a conversation about wanting to acquire less. Change the paradigm. Good on ya.
I spent a few days with these guys in 2020 and got to know many of them over longer staying in the area. Alex is a very thoughtful and capable guy and I'm glad to see he's still going strong. Hopefully I'll be back to visit them soon. They're doing fantastic work!
Where do they stay??

Amazing. We all should be aware of it." If it is not good for planet then it is not good for us" .. everyone should understand this simple yet most profound lines.
Goa is blessed by your presence!
Goan ppl are praising them but when ppl of Goa live like that they bully them by calling them poor.I wish more ppl would Goa back to nature like them. Good job guys .
Not only goa. They are called bechara. Poor things. A lot of headshaking and trying to convince you that you are stupid lol
That's because indians don't have confidence. You should convince your point of views but some people will judge. Also India as country we lack cleanliness in most of the cities.
"What is good for the planet is good for me"
It really is that simple.
Awesome….salute to these people who preserve our natures with so much hardship 👍
This is not preserving nature.. This is escaping from the living hardship... Those hippies smoke weed a lot..... Which contribute to the pollution....if you think.
If it’s good for the forest its good for me - amazing attitude, I salute
How much you love india and government and people of India should follow this couples initiatives and support them
What these guys are doing is incredibly apt and timely. Need more people to set up these endeavors. Hope to join this movement someday.
Im completely in sync with them , in 2016 my wife and I left our corporate jobs after nearly two and a half decades in Gurgaon and bought some land near Mussoorie ( We love the mountains) and set up our own small world here completely encosed in the woods with a brook at a hearing distance , we are learning how to coexist with the forest , produce most of our own food, rear our own turkeys, geese, hense , bees, cows and Dogs ... To sustain ourselves we let out a few rooms to people who want to get away from it all ... its important for all of us to understand that we cannot just keep taking from Mother earth . Kudos to the two of them ...
You are so genuine people.
World needs more and more people like you.
Great Initiative. Mother Nature needs such responsible citizens to rejuvenate the biodiversity and protect our planet.
Alex... You are such an inspiration.
I am a Goan i thank you 🙏❤ for your contribution for saving Goa Forest 🌲And Nature thank you from my ❤
Alex and cristina you both are doing awesome work. Would like to volunteer for you guys .
We are the planet, what we are taking is from us, what we are destoying is us
Hats off to them! So much hard work. So many impediments to clear….such noble thoughts. 6:00 onwards is a powerful message.
Hope more volunteers join to protect our natural resources.
Alex n Cristina I respect you🙏
Awesome Guy's love what you do for the village and village iam from Goa in 70 Goa used to be Beautiful not any more National party have done great harm
God bless both for doing this to our mother Nature 🙏
I am very happy to know that these two so-called foreigners are living so happily in India and spreading awareness . The boundaries and borders around the world are the root cause of the disparity all around. We still live in the world of kings and queens who want to dominate the world it is just that they have come with new names and titles. May God save the holy earth.
You guys deserve applause! Dedication and devoting yourself to saving the planet is not what everyone thinks and does.
thank you for taking the initiative in our little Goa. sadly, i think projects like these will not come to much fruition in Goa (I hope I am wrong), I say this because knowing the Gov in Goa and the local land grabbing mafias (MLA's) will not let the good things like this prevail. The people who come to power are grabbing all possible land for their own commercial gain, mainly building row bunglows, apartments, shops, petrol pumps etc. Naturally formed water holes are being covered for buildings. The genuine people who want Goa to remain what it was 20-30 years back are fighting a loosing battle. Sorry to point out the reality on this positive video.
You're right!
God bless you both for doing so much for mother nature & keep up the good work
God bless you all people who are doing such a wonderful work here on this Planet and in keeping Goa safe , so much of love and regards and best wishes to you all and your team, keep up the good work, more and more Blessings will follow your ways, Thanks so much from my heart.
Stunning !!!! These two are amazing !!!!
Dear Community, thanks for doing so much for rescuing snakes !!
They are totally right,the way they live,nature our home,our planet,of all living beings,they are nice and lovely and beautiful in their way of life
So much of positivity.
Beautiful people.
Awesome 👌 I'm going to spread this Awareness to All.
God bless you for saving our little goa
I accidentally found this video which I love so much you guys are doing, and soon or later I'll visit your place to see and spend time. love from Nepal🌻🌼🌷
Brilliant ... the only way forward ... in gratitude with love 💜🌟🙏🌟💜
Wow! This is so wonderful. I turned 73 years old on the 17th of April. I was a Peace corps volunteer in South India near Kumbakonam in the state of Tamil Nadu back in the early '70s. I was in an agricultural extension program. Of course we promoted new and higher yielding varieties of food crops and also the use of chemicals. My god! If I only knew then what I know now, what a difference that would have made. I have traveled back to India a few times since then to visit my host family in the village. Depending on world situations and travel I have a hope of visiting another time coming in the fall of 2022. I would love to stop by and visit your village. Blessings, love, and peace, and health to all of you. I do pretty much the same thing here on my little mountain farm in East Tennessee. 90% of what I consume I produce on my own farm. And it is only me with no other humans for support or help. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful video. I do want to add, that the experience I gained living 2 years in South India was incredible. I received much more love and knowledge than I ever gave. That 2 years with such incredible beautiful people has impacted my life more than anything in all these years.
Perfect humen being for planet earth respect God bless for ur good work
So inspiring!
People like you are indeed a blessing to this ravaged planet.....the only home we have right now!! Thank you!
Respects! Bless your community.
God bless you both and keep it up guys!!!
❤🙏
I just love these guys
The kind of videos that make me spend time on youtube
are you guys for real !!! ......you guys are more Indian than us...Keep up the incredible work guys....nxt time am in Goa am definitely looking u up!!!
Only one word for u guise...Thank you ☺️... Can't thank enough
Kudos to the Tribe. We need more of us to go the tribal way.
This is really admirable and very inspiring. Huge respect to these guys for doing this. And its very ironic that Indians who have a long history of worshipping and respecting nature are now destroying it for material benefit. Colonization does change your values after all.
So true. I hope people understand before it's too late.
Why you always have empty bellies to feed without any ‘social security’ at all then it becomes a matter of survival first. Hope you understand
And then the people become dependant on the corrupt system, and are bound by the laws etc.
Amazing... That's how you connect with the nature and thank you TN Plus for putting this amazing story to inspire us. Lovely.
Amazing job guys! This is really needed in todays compulsive humanity. Let’s move to a conscious planet, thanks for all you’re doing, truly inspiring 🙏🙏🙏
You guys are so authentic
Amazing,Great People serving Nature🙌🙏🏻
Well said "if it is good for planet then it's good for me!!!"
Wow let's spread this amazing and hard work, very important to save our planet 👍
This is reality!!! Awareness
God bless y"ll. We have to save this beautiful planet God has given us.Thanks for this great initiative. 🙏
hi-this is shantam-fluteplayer-great to see you and hear from you-lots of love
God bless you. Thank you so much
A Britisher has come to save us all. OHH Thank you for teaching us how to take care of Biodiversity in our own country. Where would we be without you lot. Also, I'm sure the funding for your little Tribe came from Indian rupees you earned in India. I'm sure the UK economical status that you came from had nothing do with helping you purchase land in Goa and set this up. Hats off ..what an effort.
so well voiced, 🙏 the people wake up, respect our home planet & feel blessed & inspired to live simply better 💜
This video is so much . Filled my heart and yes glad to hear this and yes all this little contributions are gonna make really a big changes. I’m up for it and hope to see more join the clan to build our eco n cherish. Spread the love n joy for our earth
U r the one whos thinking different...my best wishes to u for all your future endevours
Wish both of you all the best in this amazing venture.🙏🏿🕉
We must reconnect to Mother Nature!
I wish many more people think and live like this...
Very beautiful keep up the good work God bless you n your family from India
Just wonderful, keep up the good work guys, respect 🙏
More power to you & your Vision !! Bravo 🎉👏👏👏❤️
Love this lifestyle. Relaxing. Im European married Indian woman from Delhi. Live part time in Delhi area. Gon move full time later on to Goa. Looking up all videos regarding Goa lifestyle./ Mike
100% sensible talk
Congratulations to you both god bless you
Wow!! This looks like an amazing place in Goa. Would love to visit sometime when I am there.
Amazing, I love this! Hope to visit you one day on Goa and see what you do... Greetings from Uttarakhand 🙏🏼🕉☺🏞💐 your message is so important!
The irony of Goa is that those outsiders, especially the new Indian holidayers, want to enjoy nature in Goa, but from a luxury AC apartment window. The type of construction is a tell tale of where Goa is headed. If it wasn't for the city folk and national politics coming into Goa, the place would (as it was and still is in many parts) naturesque. It is the modern day ostensibly woke and conscious crowd that is fucking up the place. See the results of massive influx of Indian travellers to Goa since the pandemic. It's a rapid downhill development.
Are u a tourist urself in goa?
Nope
We need to develope more beches in different cities to reduce burden in Goa. But many foreigners from Ukrainine like country come here and do prostitution type works. Beer bottle, parties are destroying Goa environment.
Tourism contributes to 18-20% of Goa's GDP. Remember that before blabbering nonsense. Population continues to rise in India, but India's landmass is not increasing is it? This means it is inevitable for forest spaces to shrink. And you talk as if local Goans have been living like jungle tribes, never seen an AC in their life. Industrial development is required to lift people out of poverty; may not sound like a priority for someone like u, but that is India's first priority at the moment. The lady in the video knows what money means to them. Listen to her...
Goa is part of india. And If you think different. We will kick you out from here.
Amazing piece of work. So refreshing. Love it.
You are good people. God bless you.
Beautiful, I don't have words🙏🙏🙏
Incredible people!
Save the nature ...save yourself
Even I stay in Goa. And one day i will visit this place❤🔥💯
