Description

Hi!

My name is Andrea, and I am half Spanish and half Norwegian. I live in the countryside in Norway, where I work as a biologist.

I enjoy being active outdoors. I like mountain hikes, long walks, swimming, skiing, yoga, surfing, and much more. I am a generalist and appreciate variety. I don't like consumption and am very environmentally conscious, that’s why I studied Ecology and Nature Management.

I am an animal lover, nature enthusiast, and I really enjoy growing vegetables . I would really like to learn more and get more inspiration. I have a small kitchen garden at home, but I also like to help friends who grow organically and regeneratively on a larger scale. I am passionate about local and good food.

I work full-time on various projects, mainly with the restoration of cultural landscapes and endangered species, combating invasive species, nature mapping, and various projects related to plastic pollution in freshwater systems. My job requires physical work for large parts of the year, from April to November, which I enjoy very much. I am used to working with various machines such as chainsaws, brushcutters and mowers and can endure physical activity for many hours during a day:)

My motivation is mainly to live, as far as possible, an environmentally friendly life. This also means learning more about how to be self-sufficient.
