Hi, it's Eliza here. I grew up in Hungary, but I have been living in Italy for the last couple of years. For the last three years, I've been working on small, community-based creative projects trying to find ways towards a more sustainable and equitable life. This involved dealing with politics, organising events, doing public interventions or facilitating workshops; but we've also built musical instruments or designed together with kids. I'm a trained product designer and eco-social designer; and for a long, I worked in physical jobs (as an industrial alpinist, stage rigger, steel construction worker).
I admire the beauty and versatile knowledge that plants, animals and ecosystems have. I'd love to take some time to learn about and with them; work with them but in a way that also gives back to the Earth what it needs to stay healthy. I'm looking for places to learn about organic farming, permaculture, food forests, biodynamic farming, foraging, medical herbs, plant processing, and so on. I'm also excited about all kinds of bio constructions, and would love to try the life of a shepherd. I'm eager to learn from all the great people who are happy to host me.
I'm glad to get my hands dirty and get exhausted physically. I really enjoy creating, constructing, caring for any kind of beings, and climbing up on anything. :) I have a little experience in garden work (also grew up in the countryside), some designer skills and a tendency for being detailed and a colourful collection of work and volunteering experiences. I love to walk, hike and climb, ski tour, go uphill in general.Interests

I'm good with crafts, wood and ceramics, building stuff, climbing trees and always happy to get my hands dirty. I've volunteered a bit at diverse farms, but I'm still gathering skills in taking care of plants and animals.
Besides my university and design projects and rigging jobs, I also worked as a babysitter, a bartender, a tourist guide, and a climbing instructor in a children's camp; and volunteered as an auxiliary cave guide for movement therapy for disabled children.Age
