Description
Active, fit, vegetarian looking for somewhere warm to spend the winter while on hiatus from my job as a landscape designer and contractor in Chicago. Outgoing, professional demeanor, good sense of humor, open-minded, industrious, good cook. I enjoy learning about history and other cultures, nature, hiking/exploring sustainable agriculture.
I would like to learn more about permaculture, hydroponics, arborculture, and straw bale construction.
No vices, but a strong penchant for a good cup of java in the morning. I find a reason to smile and be grateful everyday.
