Nos sentimos comodos trabajando en equipo, y ayudando a los demas, ademas de poder aprender y compartir conocimientos. Durante los meses de agosto y septiembre participamos en un voluntariado de EMCD de huertas urbanas ubicado en Edmonton.

About us:
Cris: By profession I am an Auditor Accountant. During the pandemic I decided to make a change in my life, and I dedicated myself to traveling by bicycle through Chile. It was more than 2,000 km. During this trip I did different types of volunteering. I volunteered in organic gardens, bioconstruction, permaculture, cabin repair, weeding gardens, maid service, compost work and hostel reception.
Felipe: I have worked in construction for a long time. I arrived in Canada 3 months ago, I worked in Edmonton during this time and now for a few months I would like to prioritize learning English and being able to help with some volunteer work, exchanging knowledge and geting to know new people.
We feel comfortable working as a team, and helping others, in addition to being able to learn and share knowledge. During the months of August and September we participated in an EMCD urban garden volunteer program located in Edmonton. We have knowledge of basic mountaineering, winter mountaineering, first aid in the wilderness, a permaculture and bioconstruction design course and the C110 forest fire course.
