  • Description

    For the past two and a half years, I have been on a journey to explore different ways of living and to learn from people along the way. As someone who is skilled in craftsmanship, I love getting my hands dirty, taking on new challenges, and constantly learning. I have a deep interest in permaculture and sustainable living practices, as well as in working with natural materials like wood, clay, and earth. Additionally, I have a passion for cooking.

    Mindful interaction with nature and with other people is very important to me. My journey is not just about acquiring skills but also about developing a deeper understanding of sustainable living and community-oriented life. I am excited to continue learning, exchanging knowledge, and contributing my experiences to projects and communities that share similar values.

  • More details about your skills

    In the last year I have spent a lot of time on biodynamic farms and got to know other community projects, lived and worked there. In the process I have discovered my love for growing vegetables and small-scale farming. I would be very happy to learn more about biodynamic agriculture and how to be self-sufficient. At one of my stations I helped to build a loam house. I am also very interested in learning more about building with natural materials. I enjoy working with wood. In this field I like to try myself out, I also like to take the jigsaw or other tools in my hands and am in the process of expanding my skills. I have a great interest in pottery and ceramics. Whenever I have access to a pottery wheel, I take pleasure in creating ceramics and honing my skills. As you can see, I am a person who likes to work with my hands and create things, who likes to get dirty, who has a desire to learn new things and is open to new experiences. I am very close to nature, love being in nature, hiking and admiring the beauty of nature.
