Description

Hello! I’m Avril from NZ but have spent the last 10 years living in Mexico.

Taking care of my body and mind is very important to me and I do this through my nutrition, movement, what information I put into my brain, spending time in nature and being around people and projects that inspire me.

I love to learn the language of the places I visit and appreciate learning more about your lifestyle and way of living. I am a foodie at heart and am fascinated by anything related to growing, cooking and of course eating and sharing delicious meals with others. I do believe its one of the greatest pleasures in life and am always fascinated by how intertwined food and culture are.

I am currently making the move back to NZ but would like to spend a few months enjoying Mexico, meeting new people & helping with projects that feel aligned with my values.

I would love to meet you, learn from you and support you with your projects!

-Food is a big passion of mine. I love learning about new ingredients, exploring new ways of cooking them and sharing meals with people.
-Personal growth and transformation through learning about ourselves more and taking time to reflect are important to me and topics I read and investigate about constantly.
-I would love to learn more about living a self-sufficient lifestyle, alternative ways of building and looking after animals. I plan to work on developing a self-sufficient lifestyle of a small plot of land in the future and would love to learn from people who have knowledge in this area.
