More details about your skills
I am not an expert in gardening but I am very interested in learning it! I love to be with animals and also with children. I am a contemporary dancer, so I love sharing with others embodiment and movement experiences. I am also a yoga practitioner and teacher and of course love sharing it with others.
I like being in social projects, I like helping and be for the others. At the same time I also enjoy and need doing things alone to reconnect with myself. I need being close to nature which is a big reason I am interested in working away. As well as meeting new cultures and people to create new perspectives in my life.
I am not a great cook, but I like helping and doing it when necessary!
I speak spanish, catalan, english and dutch (this last not perfect but i can have conversations).
I meditated, like silence, look for connection with mother earth and people.
I am not an expert in construction work or repairing things but definitely willing to help in that.
Love humor, doing things with joy and lightness.

A beautiful experience:
Last November I spent two weeks at Dirk's incredible land. In need of taking distance from city life, spending time in such a place was exactly what I needed. Days before starting my workaway I coulnd't help to be a bit nervous, I didn't know where I was exactly getting my self into and it was my first work away experience.… read more Dirk and me had a video call to get to know each other which was really really good. His energy was calm and open as well as straight forward and practical. It felt right!
And the rest, was just as easy :) I had a beautiful room for my self. Where I even could practice yoga every morning. Food was provided everyday and it was super good quality food from the same land or bought organic.
Work wise was a learning thing for me, because I am not an expert in gardening and land keeping (what can I do, what do I like, how fast am I, am I good in it, how can I best help,...). All this had to be discovered while doing and being there. Dirk gave me a lot of space to discover, he didn't impose anything, he had different options for me to choose. He was very supportive and open to discuss things. Dirk is kind and respectful, open person, a listener. His energy is light and humorous and so nice to see how grateful he is to live there :)
For the time of the year I was there, a lot of weeding needed to be done as well as saving the young plants to be eaten from snails. We planted cactus and yuccas in the land. We built a wall made of natural clay (we made clay from scratch!), and much more.
Some days other workers came to work with us and that was so much fun, gave the feeling of togetherness.
Cleaning the house was part of it. I like clean spaces so for me wasn't a problem at all, I was happy to contribute to that as well.
I cannot not mention the queens and the king of the place, two beautiful dogs Tess and Lia whose presence is a bliss and an incredible cat Pipa. A cat full of "catness", undeniable hunter and loyalty to his place and his owner. And full of humor!
The co-existance in the house with the five of us was quite organic, as soon as we all understand what is the organicity of it all :)
Besides the working and the co-living, I had the pleasure to go with Dirk to beautiful events, know some of his friends and neighbours, visit amazing beaches,.. very grateful for that!
Important, If you want to get around the area by yourself, you will need your own vehicle :)

I really recommend this experience if you like working and engaging is the place and land and having a nice exchange with Dirk, Tess, Lia and Pipa, the trees, plants, insects being of the land!

(Excellent)
