If You’re Here, You’re Early…and I Appreciate You!
To catch you up a bit, I bought 7 acres of land in DR and I’m going to build an eco-retreat! *applause track*
Welcome to the Dreaming Stage
Please enjoy my vision board
… & I’m Janine, the Dreamer Behind the Vision
Serial Entrepreneur. Retreat Host. Mom. Jamerican (1st gen), Youngest Sister. Pisces. Karaoke-r. Woman Who Runs With the Wolves (IYKYK).
Must Love Nature is the culmination of my livelong love of nature and my passion for creating spaces that help people reconnect — to themselves, to others, and to the world around them.
These are the core values shaping the design and ethos of Must Love Nature
Rest Without Guilt
Rest is foundational, not earned. We reject the idea that worth is tied to output.
Nature as Teacher
Nature is not décor — it is infrastructure. We design in partnership with the land, not in domination of it.
Clarity requires room. We choose unstructured time over packed schedules, depth over density, and presence over productivity.
Spaciousness over Stimulation
We believe building in nature requires protecting it. Our design, materials, sourcing, and operations prioritize ecological responsibility, long-term impact, and respect for the local environment and community.
