Les activités qui m'intéressent :

I recently did a PDC which has really inspired me to continue learning and visit similar projects and communities. I would love to do more earth building, organic growing and community work.

Description

I love travelling, discovering new cultures and meeting new people. Living outside and connecting with nature is when I feel most content. I am adventurous and curious, always going on adventures and discovering new places. I have always enjoyed doing gardening, growing food, caring for animals and cooking, doing workaways have been the perfect way for me to do this and learn new skills.

I studied Human Geography at uni, worked in a cooperatively run artisan bakery and volunteered at community gardening projects and charities working towards food security.
In my spare time I like to cook, play sport, be in nature and volunteer.
I am deeply passionate about combatting issues around climate change and food insecurity.

I am really passionate about sustainable food production and low impact living. In the future I would love to build my own off-grid house and live in a self-sufficient community, living minimally and caring for the land and nature around me.
Community is so important to me and this is what I've loved about doing work-aways in the past. The sense of connection and community you get from working and living with people from all over the world and from all sorts of backgrounds is so interesting and has definitely shaped me as a person.

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I have done gardening from a very young age as both of my parents work in horticulture and I have always helped on community allotments and food growing projects. I also had many animals like chickens, ducks, dogs, guinea pigs, goats and a pony.
I currently work part-time in an artisan bakery and have done for over 5 years making sourdough bread, vegan pastries and cakes.
I am skilled in basic woodwork, cleaning, cooking, gardening, animal care, driving and general DIY.
I have done Woofing and Workaway on a goat farm and eco campsite, a community veg farm, and glamping holiday business and would love to discover more alternative ways of living and travelling.
I am self-motivating, strong, have good stamina, take initiative and love learning new skills. I am very practical and not afraid to get my hands dirty.

Autres infos...

I love being active and doing sports like surfing, kayaking, rowing, cycling, swimming and yoga. I am passionate about sustainable food production and food security. I hope to end up doing work for a charity or organisation which aims to make our food systems more sustainable and make healthy nutritious food accessible to all.
In the meantime I want to get involved in community projects, learning about low impact living and being outside, discovering places near and far.
I recently did a PDC and since then have felt really inspired to continue learning. As well as the 3 week PDC I did a further 4 weeks of organic growing and orchard care course in Golden Bay, New Zealand.
I learnt so much on the course but felt particularly inspired by urban permaculture, eco villages, alternative economics, earth building, grafting, and cooking with foraged ingredients. The course was a rich learning experience, on a social, personal, spiritual, ecological and physical level. I learnt with my hands, heart and head and would love to continue living and learning in this way. Being resourceful and thinking outside the box for solutions was really refreshing and just made sense. I would love to collaborate with others to think and make more creatively.
I’ve done Wwoofing for many years, it’s my favourite way to travel and learn. I would love to be part of a community/project that has values in line with permaculture principles.
