Hello! My name is Alasdair and I have worked as an English as a Foreign Language teacher for most of the last 28 years. I lived in Thailand for over 8 years, Oman for 4, Saudi Arabia for 2.5 years, Spain (In Algeciras and Arrasate / Mondragon) and Mexico for a year each. I speak fluent Spanish and Thai and can speak a bit of French (I would like to improve my French). My first degree is a BA (Hons) in Latin American Studies, I also hold an MSc Water and Environmental Management.
In 2012 I took refuge as a Buddhist in Northern Thailand and am an experienced meditator. Mostly I practice mindfulness with breathing (anapanasiti) and creative visualisations. I'm in the process of creating course materials to use journaling and creative visualisations for habit change.
Until May 2022 I was a single parent raising my daughter, but now she is 22 years old and living independently I am free to pursue my dream of living off-grid, I am now travelling again and ideally would like to gain experience living on an ecovillage / intentional community using permaculture methods.
In 2020 I worked on an organic farm in Scotland, in 2022 at an organic farm in France and I've worked at an organic farm in Badminton (England - near Bristol) on three separate occasions. I'm looking to gain more experience of working on organic farms, particularly in France and Spain. I have a total of about three months experience working on organic farms.Interessengebiete

Was könntest du arbeiten?
I've been a teacher for almost 25 years with foreign students aged 5-85 and most of my skills relate to teaching English. I've wwoofed on farms in Scotland and England and in France. I speak Spanish, Thai and a little French. I've raised a child to adulthood and have lived abroad for around 16 years. I've written a book and have made and edited videos for my YouTube channel.

He cooks a mean curry and dahl. He is very interesting to converse with, an author with many interesting ideas.
He is peaceful to have around, no doubt due in part to his experience in meditation.
He applied himself with dedication to the painting challenges I set him, and he accomplished them well.
