    Description

    I would like to offer space for others to share life in nature with me. If you have time and willingness to work together, there are no limits to what lifestyle people can create.

    The things I value are cooperation, sustainability, nature and connection.

    This summer I would appreciate your help finishing the Earthship. Making it more self-sufficient and beautiful to live in and share.

    The work involves finishing the walls to be more aesthetically pleasing.

    Adding cladding and shading to windows to prevent excessive heat or cold.

    Improving airflow, heating and cooling.

    You do not need to have experience in these things, only interest in learning and doing.
    However, I am also open to others' creativity and expertise.

    Some other activities can involve growing plants, birds and making paths in the forest, perhaps to a tea-hut, sauna or a ceremonial space.

    I would have fun doing these things even if it wasn't my place and project, I have volunteered, lived and worked with others before. Hosting workaway guests is also a form of social life I can have while living in the countryside.

    Feel free to say hi and ask questions, tell me about yourself and interests.

    This fall I would like help to prep the garden for next season by weeding and adding compost, as well as making new raised beds.

    General yard decluttering and organizing, no big building projects. Though I would appreciate help with planing or drafting ideas for the future.

    Local access to hiking, biking, and swimming. There is a forest to explore on the property, my favourite place to take nature walks.

    Ottawa and many small towns with nice parks and sights are less than 100km away, and I would love to show them.
