Description

We (Felix, Davina and Cali (the dog)) designated the year 2024 to travelling Europe. We will spend the winter in Spain/Portugal (or somewhere in this area) and in summer we‘ll see what will happen :)

About Davina:
I am very interested in learning new things and getting to know new people.
There‘s no particular skill that I am a professional in, but it doesn‘t take me long to pick up new skills in order to help out. In India, on our recent travel, I've already picked up a lot of things and would love to improve my skills.
I‘ve graduated university and have also finished an apprenticeship in brewing. Recently I have been working as a brewer until we started travelling.
I love cooking (in our time in India we learned how to prepare indian food) and I‘m very crafty/artsy - I enjoy knitting and crocheting, macramé and all sorts of handy things :)
My diet is limited, as I cannot eat gluten and dairy. I am happy to prepare my own meals, because I know for some people the limitation is a challlenge when it comes to cooking.
I would love to explore as much as I can and will be grateful for any opportunity to help and learn.

About Felix:
I’m really open minded and want to learn anything. The last 4 years I was self employed as Arborist (Tree care, gardening) and done carpentry stuff as well. Also I finished my bachelor recently in arboriculture. I also have done an apprenticeship as an engineer and a sort of bachelor degree in engineering. But mainly I love to work with natural materials like wood and clay. I’m really into permaculture, food forest, agroforst, syntropie and want to learn and experience more about it. Work for exchange I have done in New Zealand, Australia and Europe and always enjoyed the time and sharing knowledge. I love Cooking, preparing meals and experience different food, cultures. Sometimes I have too many ideas and it makes it hard to keep focused but I work on it. Life is a pleasant journey.

Our dog Cali is a rescue from France and she only has three legs, which doesn‘t bother her at all. She is super friendly with all living beings, but as she‘s a hunting dog, she has a weakness for free roaming chicken.
Also she hates to be left alone. So it‘s important for us, that there is an option to leave her with someone or to take her with us (whatever the task might be)

We are travelling in our van, so we don't necessarily need a bed, but a place to stay with our van. :-)
