Description

Aho it's Aaron!

My passion for gardening and especially Permaculuture was growing through my first trips in other countries, and of cause the beautiful garden of my parents. I decided to learn practically in a tree nursery close to my home village, to gain more skills for my beloved plants. A few years ago I also started reading interesting books about travellers, gardeners and botanists, which brought me deeper into some topics.
Nowadays I love to cook fresh stuff from the garden, doing a meditation in the morning and always searching for new plants!
Everything we are eating comes from wonderful plants, and in my opinion we all should appreciate this much more.
If I´m not outside or gardening you will find me probably practising my guitar, swimming in the ocean or hiking up to a peak.
Through many ups and downs in the last two years I started working a lot on my own behaviour ans skills. It's a beautiful thing to see self development and the ability of improving your behaviour. I am already much more self reflected and happy that meditating helped me with many of these skills.
Definetly open for every other outdoor activity, because being curious is just my nature.
This is already a lot of information, but I would be happy to meet more people and discuss/ learn or grow together :)

On my last Volunteer stay in a community in Switzerland I met my girlfriend Selina. We were both working in the beautiful permaculture garden and gained more knowledge about growing vegies. As we were both planning a Trip to Central America, we decided to go for some time together. We are planning some Travel time but also time in Projects where we can settle a bit and dive deeper into the Culture of the Country. It would be lovely to start our trip in a safe place where we can get to know the new Country.

More details about your skills

As I already mentioned I am being trained as a gardener for three years so I have basic theoretical knowledge about many plants. Also I gained many practical skills like pruning, reproducing plants, potting, farming in general. Through my interest in Permaculture and self sustainable farming I was reading many books about these topics. Composting, mulching and other practices in Permaculture are definetly not new for me.
Furthermore I am quite good in working in Teams but can also fullfill some tasks on my own.
