Currently in Puerto Rico - enjoying the surf/jungle helping with construction and learning new skills/connections with the natural world

Description

Hello!

After 10 years of travel/work within a corporate environment i have now stepped into a slower pace of living, focused on connecting with nature/building local communities.

Since leaving my job in 2022 i have rennovated my own large shared property in glasgow (Scotland) with a large group of friends and built a community sauna in the garden. I come from a farming background and am no stranger to hard manual labour/caring for animals/basic construction. My girlfriend and i have travelled the world on and off for the last 10 years and love connecting/learning from new people through cooking/music/sports and any silliness going.
