 \n\n\nAbout Embassy Network\nhttps://embassynetwork.com\n\nCommunities exp
 erimenting with culture and commoning.\nWe are building a cooperative move
 ment for those leveraging housing towards greater aims\, where those aims 
 are strengthened by operating in community with others\, global fluid mobi
 lity\, and by connection to other networks. Together\, we start and suppor
 t spaces that prototype new approaches to an open\, creative society. Thes
 e spaces are embassies of a future that is abundant\, collaborative and tr
 ansparent.\n\ncultural values\nA central part of finding the right people 
 for your community is being clear about the cultural values that you hold 
 dear. Sometimes you know where these are from the get go\, and sometimes t
 hese cultural norms are emergent as the community grows together.  We fou
 nd it helpful for example to go through certain questions about food\, per
 sonal boundaries and so on\, to find out who we all were.  This is our f
 ood survey for example This is our boundaries spreadsheet. Filling this 
 in\, we learn that some people don't like hugs\, some people feel uncomfor
 table with semi nakedness in their private space and so on. We never would
  have known this without asking these questions explicitly. It's not that 
 you all have to feel the same on all these axes\, but it's good to know wh
 at is important to each other!\n
