Description
We are a family living in La Gomera, Canary Islands.
We are developing our life long dream project which involves trying to revive our land and transform it into an edible forest. We´re interested in permaculture and sustainability.
We have three donkeys, a beautiful dog, and some trees and plants as well as two wonderful grown up children.
We live in a small village of farmers 15 minutes drive from the ocean, we have a beautiful piece of land with overwhelming views.
Up to this moment we have been concentrating on building our house and raising our children. Now is the moment to concentrate on the land, which is a challenge in our area since there is not a lot of water.
Apart from that Izik is an artist, a painter and a sculptor and I started a new and exciting project, designing clothes and producing them in Senegal which is just around the corner.
