Description
Hi I am Claire and welcome to my profile.
I have so much joy in finding new things to learn and to connect with and to expand my life and living. The past 4 years that has been to learn and grow veggies, medicinal herbs and learn about perma culture. And to look after animals. I love it. I have also learnt to make tinctures, decoctions, salves, soaps and great veggie recepties. Nature gives so much of what we need for food and healing.
I would love to go to a place where I can learn more about herbs and their medicinal qualities and to make products that can be used when required. I also enjoy animals and people a lot and like to cooperate in making the place a nicer, warmer, more beautiful place. What are the infinite possibilities? And to participate in how you are using the natural world to have more ease and joy in your life.
I also have experience taking care of animals (dogs, cats, donkeys, chickens - would really like to learn more about horses), growing veggies from seed, taking care of the garden (weeding etc.) healing, cooking, puppetry, improvisation, writing, creative play. I've given a lot of different workshops in Ireland and the Netherlands. And I am very happy to house and pet sit. I will look after your home and animals very well.
I have lived in the Netherlands, Ireland and France. I speak English and Dutch fluently and a bit of French.

More details about your skills
In the last 4 years I have learnt a lot about permaculture, herbs (growing, gathering, drying, using for teas, tinctures, salves and more) and veggies.
I have experience with creating and facilitating different workshops: drama and theatre, improvisation, making simple puppets, healing, empowerment, creative play and energy work.
As I had my own business for a while (healing and walking tours in Amsterdam) I did my own PR and social media (and everything that involved having a business really :-)). I love to take photo's and am willing to take photo's of your pets, so you can still have them close while you are away. I can create graphics and content for your events.
I have done all kinds of Admin jobs through the years. For myself and others.
I taught a Consciousness empowerment modality called Access Bars.
The past 4 years I have done volunteering work in France (not through Workaway but through friends). I really like the concept of voluntary work, trading skills, time, full boarding and sharing interests and different kinds of living.

What else ...
I would love to learn more about herbs and their medicinal qualities. Every medicine comes originally from a plant, there is so much available to us in nature and how great would it be if we gained more of that knowledge (again).
I am very interested in consciousness and reading and learning more about that. I love to read and make long walks. I love , love, love trees and everything in nature. I love animals and hanging out with them. In a previous place I stayed I walked 2 big dogs twice a day up the mountains. I love gazing at the stars and the moon too and meditating in nature. I also thoroughly enjoy interacting with other fun people and sharing and learning about how you tick and laugh.
I am fit and interested in making this world a better place, with more kindness, humour, adventure, and more laughter than I can imagine.
What are the endless possibilities?
