  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I am a psychologist by profession, but I have dedicated my life to the development of various traditional crafts, such as basketry or various weavings. I have been studying and working with medicinal plants for more than 15 years, creating natural cosmetic products to contribute to the health of people and the planet. I really like being able to share this knowledge and nourish myself with cultural exchange.
