Description

Hello,
My name is Laia, I was born in the Mediterranean coast of Spain in 1985. For the last 15 years I was living between the Azores islands and the rest of the world.

I’m very interested in alternative ways of living, food sovereignty, natural building, self-sufficiency and I have a lot of experience helping in this kind of projects.

I also work professionally as a chef. I cooked for retreats, festivals, restaurants, parties, hostels, etc. I have a vast experience cooking natural and vegetarian dishes but also with animal products. I absolutely love fermenting foods and drinks.
What I like more in the kitchen is the creativity that comes to me and also eat the food :)
I love growing my own vegetables, hunt for mushrooms or going to fish. The best meal is prepared with what nature give us.

I have myself a project of permaculture and natural building in the Azores islands where I spend time when I’m not traveling and also have volunteers who come to help me sometimes.

When I travel I do it very light and pretty slow.
I love to combine my trips with working in different countries, that give me really nice experiences.

I have a strong sens of responsibility and always try to do my best when I work.
