    Description

    I’m an artist. I make music and I’m the drummer in a band. I also do tattoos, teach engrabing and sculpture workshops, and I have a hiking project that I run on weekends.

    I live in the woods of Hidalgo by myself!
    I rent a beautiful, spacious house surrounded by nature in the middle of the forest. I have several projects in mind and I’m looking for people who would like to help me bring them to life.

    Some of the projects include working on the vegetable garden, landscaping and gardening, and building a small dry-toilet system using natural and sustainable construction methods.

    I also have a large art studio equipped for painting, sculpture, and printmaking. If you are interested in art, you are welcome to use the studio and work on your own creative projects during your stay.

    There are many amazing places around for hiking with rivers, waterfalls, etc. Just 3 minutes walking. Also there are big towns not so far, the biggest city Pachuca is about 30 minutes, and 10mins from Omitlan, a town where you can find a bigmarket and stores, also Omitlan is very touristic, known as a place where you can find many activities and hikes in the nature!

    Help

    I’m mainly looking for help with the garden and vegetable garden. The weather here is cool and very pleasant for working outdoors.

    I would like to build a composting system to make use of all the nutrients from our organic waste. I also want to build some dry toilets using natural clay and other sustainable materials, as well as improve and organize the spaces for all the edible plants I already have.

    I would also like everyone to be mindful of keeping the house clean and sharing the responsibilities. I have a large kitchen where we can cook and share meals together, as well as share the cleaning and other kitchen chores.

    Accommodation

    For your accommodation, there are several options. I have plenty of space for camping in a large, covered area surrounded by trees. There is also space inside the house.

    In the music studio, there is a sofa bed. There is another couch in the living room as well.
    You can choose wherever you feel most comfortable sleeping.

    I don’t currently have Wi-Fi because I don’t need it, as I have a very good mobile phone signal. However, if you need Wi-Fi for work, we can arrange to have it installed. It’s very cheap, and I already have the antenna installed.
