Description

We are from Belgium and would like to gain experience while traveling about sustainability and how to live self-sufficiently. I am (Martine) an experienced office manager. I speak and write 4 languages. I am good at organizing and planning. I have been interested in natural medicine since I was young. I am a foot reflexologist (did this as a side job) and have a diploma as a natural nutritionist. I love vegetarian cooking . Bart is a production worker and has some technical knowledge. He is also a Reiki Master. He also likes to cook vegetarian and wants to learn more about it. We would like to learn more about permaculture and how to live self-sufficiently.We want and can perform the following tasks at "a host"= Bart: such as light gardening, baking cakes and vegetarian cooking and light household tasks.taking care of animals such as feeding, walking the dogs, etc. Please do not propose heavy technical repairs, such as repairing a water pump or repairing a roof of a house. Martine: ditto but less work in the garden please. I can also accept light renovation work, such as painting...
