Activities i am interested in:
I`m currently looking for a winter escape as I cannot do anything in my own garden right now. Looking forward to get involved in some Permaculture projects, Eco-Building or regenerative agriculture.
Description
Hi I´m Markus and passionate about life!
Love meeting people, sharing knowledge and regenerating broken land.
In the last decade I´ve travelled intensively, lived in 8 countries, helped on farms through the WWOOFing program, been an active member of Couchsurfing as host and organizer, worked as bartender and on fruitpicking jobs and finally finished an engineering degree.
If I´m not working or studying, I´ll probably be dancing or cycling around. If there is water around you might also find me kayaking, swimming, or surfing. Recently I´ve finished a permaculture design course and I´m looking to implement some of the stuff I learned.Interests

I´ve grown up when my dad and uncle build their house and since young age I´ve always been involved in different tasks around building, so that I´m quite used to handle all sorts of different tools on a construction site.
Working on farms (apple, kiwi, cattle, ...) and having my own little garden taught me a few things about gardening which I intensified now by a 6 weeks long permaculture course in Andalucia.
My studies in energy and environmental engineering give me some theoretical background knowledge as well.
I`ve got experience in hospitality working in bars, but that doesn´t mean I´m a very good chef. ;-)Age
