Travel information

I am currently

Description

I am a traveler to be of service to projects building sustainability, community, and compassion.
I have lots of experience in gardens and fields. I always enjoy doing the dishes, and sweeping.
I am currently teaching 7,8,9 year olds, in a classroom setting. Seeing them succeed and grow makes it all worth it.
I am not alone on my journey, I have a 5 year old daughter and we are quite the pair. Team work always and patience surrounds our daily life. Sometimes we are spontaneous with silly kid marches and songs.
I would like to learn about goats. I would love to learn about filtering rain water. I would like to continue to participate in earthen building, cob especially.
I would love to see my daughter blossom into a very loving person. Mostly, I want to travel and see different perspectives and learn how to honor each of them.
