Description
Hi!
I‘m a 41 years old and looking to start a permaculture homestead in Portugal in the near-ish future. Would like to get to know people with a similar outlook on life.
My expertise includes cob building, applied ecology, art of all sorts (painting, sculpture, illustration, design), intermediate to decent skill with most tools and more - I‘m a renaissance-man type of guy: tons of interests, and a wish to integrate them.

More details about your skills
Being an artistic person (painter sculptor, musician, earthen builder), I‘ve always found it difficult to be employed in the conventional sense. Thus I‘ve earned my money making dreadlocks (10 years as my main income), doing odd jobs on the side, selling the occasional artwork, and more recently, building clay huts. I‘m decently competent with most power tools and know about permaculture, key line design, and related topics. You can probably put me to some use in the kitchen.but I‘m much more useful outdoors, not shying away from physical labor, and I enjoy simple living.
So, as a list:
Art
Music
Permaculture
Natural Building/Construction
Applied ecology
Tons of general knowledge
My vision is to integrate ecosystem restoration with gardening, art and architecture, and I greedily gobble up any skill or knowledge that can be used for that goal.
Age
42
What else ...
Not much of a board game player.
I do enjoy conversations about ecology, civilization, spirituality, and generally about large-scale topics. Prefer one-on-one talks over tight group situations but am social enough to live in a group and contribute.
